I think the schedule is released the day after the MLB all star game, isnt it?
Attention to all those who wish to attend the Summit!
I've just gotten off the phone with Ian, and he's rightfully concerned that some areas might be moving a little faster than others in setting this thing up.
For those who are involved in the organizing end of this, and wish to speak to Ian, his number is posted, and it is in the 613 area code. Please call him directly with your questions and concerns. Often we are all posting thoughts and ideas here in different places, and it is an impossible task to keep track of what was discussed, and by whom.
As Ian has taken charge of this for us, he would appeciate speaking directly to folks on important matters rather than having threads all over the place.
The first order of business for the group HAS TO BE the purchase of tickets. This is an extremely complicated endeavor to take on, as it involves a sum of money in the $3000 range. (50 tix at $60 per) Ian is willing to take this on in light of not getting answer from HabsChick on her offer to take on the job. If anyone is comfortable with these risks and responsabilities, and is willing to assist Ian with them, he is asking that you contact him as soon as possible.
The tickets could go on sale shorty, as the schedule will released any day now.
It will difficult to pick and choose dates for the event. The tickets need to be purchased quickly, as the demand is as always for Habs games. There may not be sufficient time to poll folks, as I suggested earlier, or cater to particular choices for when people can attend. We realize that not taking a consensus choice will not please certain people, but if we dither too much, the chance of having a summit at all this year will pass us by.
The remaining events of the day, are secondary concerns for now.
Once there is concrete news about tickets and a date, Connecticut Man1, Smart Dog, or myself will be posting the news and details at this site. Any official news shall be there, or directly linked to there from here.
The site's address is:
http://habssummit.blogspot.com/
To avoid any confusion, the HIO site and my Eyes On The Prize are only helping to spread the news on the summit, and are not official info stations for updates.
There will be more updates in the coming hours and days as to the ticket purchasing process as Ian informs us.
Once more, if anyone is able to lend their efforts to Mr. Cobb, please contact him.
I wonder what number Tangauy will wear?

If a man speaks in a forest where no woman can hear him, is he still wrong?
To answer your question about the man in the forest; Have you not heard of Mother Nature??? Women are everywhere!!! :(
Nice! Great point. So his answer would be. Men are always wrong, and don't try to avoid it, cause you can't!
Laraque will make them Pay the Price!
Teacher
It is said that man has only one decision to make when he gets married. Does he want to be right or does he want to be happy?
GRRR...happy? I think you mean content. Men who are married, like myself have to stray quite a bit from the man side. We are really half man/half woman. Kids are for marriage. No kids, don't get married.
GRRR....Habs Rule.....sometimes suck. GRRRRR...here's why...
I'll remember that! Thanks ;)
Laraque will make them Pay the Price!
Hey Pat :) Just curious, but since when is it your business?
Laraque will make them Pay the Price!
Oh, trust me. I AM being nice :)
Laraque will make them Pay the Price!
But Pat said the beer is on him!
Oh pardon me, I'm just being a shitster!
13 if Sundin doesn't sign

CH is for Chris Higgins
Hope it's not 81. 15 would look good on him.
He shoulda got #30
How did you feel about Turner Stevenson wearing it?
I think it should only go on a goalie's back myself.
Not as tough as Nilan, but then again, maybe only Fergie was tougher.
When Laraque beat Chara. You give him #30, yes.
"Give Koivu a Lifetime Contract"
LOL I doubt that's your only issue. ;)
Okey dokey then, #17 it is LOL.
In BGL We Trust
LOL, I was like what the hell does the L stand for. Now I realize it's Big Georges Laraque.
Laraque will make them Pay the Price!
Funny thing is, if you Google it, BGL shows up as an acronym in a dictionary for Big Georges Laraque
Geoooorge?
The guy at the dépanneur didn't give me my proper change...
Can you come punch his head in, pleeeeease?
I've got a hot-wheel with number 17 on it I can give to you!
But first, come punch that guy's head in.
Enweye George!
