Still marveling over Chi Chi's event pre-planning prowess...SO un-SOGAGG
like to plan ahead. Will be an event to remember.
I have not made any hotel reservations at this point due to my
ever-changing schedule and the fact that AFCEA West was dropped right at
the end of the annual SOGAGG outing.
If the suite is available when I blow into town I'd be more than happy to
spend the night with Jack Daniels while monitoring Ace's White Zin intake..

Thanks Sarah
Are you sure you don't want to save that other suite in case Charlie gets
too frisky?
I think Old Slice has reserved some palatial penthouse at the Wynn but I'm
sure he would reconsider if it is now the SOGGAG HAPPY HOUR Suite.
I'm glad to hear you and Charlie on quickly on the mend and will be in top
shape for our Vegas escapade.
Cheers

Chi Chi-
UNBELIEVABLE! 11 Pages! In my mind, I will forever think of you as the
Planning King. Thank you.
Rules and I are all in, including Thursday morning.
It looks like we will have an extra suite that we could use for Happy
Hours and for Old Slice.
I can’t wait to get my cast off and begin warming up for this happy
adventure.
Best-
Sarah

Chi Chi – Magnificent job dear friend. The only improvement that I might
suggest is if there might be a chance to play the new “Donald Trump Vegas
Golf Course”, which rumor has it may be opening up right around the time of
our SOGAGG outing. Aerial shot below shows the signature hole (a bit
tricky given the size of the large, undulating sand trap – which gets more
difficult to manage as the wind increases…..).
But how cool would it be to play a course owned by the POTUS…..
Just a thought,

Good Evening All,
Here is a smooth draft of our upcoming Vegas outing. I want to emphasize
that times and golf locations are subject to change depending on available
tee times as well as cost. I'm hoping to find better deals as we get a
week or two before our travel dates.
I welcome any and all comments and suggestions... Skully, Trek, OB still
time to change your mind....
As you will see, I am proposing that we play Primm Valley Golf Clubs
Lakeside Course that was rated as one of the top 100 golf courses a few
years back. It has also received very good reviews in yelp and trip
adviser ratings. It will be on the way to Vegas and I don't mind driving
out to the course from Vegas with my rental car. It's about a 4 hour drive
for most but probably only 3 hours for Doglegs and Rules as they race their
way to the Strip.
I've included some proposed golf competition for each day but again would
enjoy any suggestions for other games.
As we did last year, I'm proposing that each Penthouse will hold a happy
hour celebration one night from Saturday thru Tuesday night. Since we also
had great success with the restaurants at South Point Casino, I have
tentative reservations for 8 usually around 8:00pm at the Prime Rib,
Italian, Steakhouse and Seafood restaurants for Sat, Sun, Mon and Tuesday
night.
I have secured tee times for Angel Park Palm in the morning and Mountain
in the afternoon as well as Desert Pines on Wednesday.
Some of the other courses will accept reservations with advance payment so
I may want to get volunteers to book a foursome and then collect from the
rest of the crew at the course. Old Slice is going to join the crew on
Monday evening and may play golf Tuesday afternoon or just drive the SOGGAG
beverage cart.
Well that's all for now... Looking forward to hearing from everyone.
Cheers
Chi Chi
