[NCARC] CQC Banquet--Thank You CQC!

[Rod N0RC]

Thank you for all your hard work to plan, organize and present a
wonderful program.

Thank you for your "Herculian" efforts to bring Arnie to the US as
your guest speaker. Lesser individuals would have given up in
despair and frustration.

   For those who weren't there,  the story of how to Arnie was
   brought to the US was told. Arnie arrived in Colorado at
   about the same time the CQC Banquet started! Airline delays,
   political red tape, months of hard work...the suspense and
   drama rivaled a good Hitchcock motive. ;-) Even Colorado's US
   Senator Ben Nighthorse Campbell was involved to help break the
   political log jam! I'll leave the details to the CQC to tell.
   They know it best.

Thank for the efforts to make available the many wonderful prizes. 

   I was lucky enough to win one of the "Flying Horse" Callbook
   CDs. (It is my favorite and will get plenty of use)!

Thanks to all of you who turned out to support the Banquet. It
was great to put a face, and shake the hand, of many familiar
callsigns. To those I didn't get to meet my apologies--same time
next year?
