COMING EVENTS(highlighted events were presented at the annual planning meeting, please support them):
If you wish to send me additional info on your event, please wait until a month or so before the date to send it.  That will allow me to be more accurate with your inclusion.  Please note that, due to space limitations and my own laziness, I don't include all stops on poker runs.  If you notice input errors, please send those to me as soon as you can so I may correct them. 
 
I've been running this as a free site for more than 11 years so remember, folks, you get what you pay for.  I have been known, however, to gratefully accept an occasional refreshing adult carbonated beverage as a token of your appreciation and esteem.
