Annual Meeting Banquet Menu

[Mike Franzen]

Thought I would share the menu I just received from the Caterer serving at the Annual Meeting at Hopkins Game Farm in Maryland on September 22nd. We have already sold about half of the 100 available tickets. Cost for a ticket is $65.00 for members of the PGCA and their guests(if purchased by July 22) and $75.00 for non-members. This years display theme is Waterfowl Guns. I would imagine we are going to have some awesome 8 gauges, large frame 10 gauges and a host of other example that will make you drool. To get your tickets send checks payable to the PGCA to: David Suponski
266 Clover Street
Stratford, CT 06614

Here’s the menu according to our Caterer:
During cocktail hour - Cold Poached Shrimp and Fruit and Cheese table

DINNER BUFFET -

Caesar Salad
House made corn bread and rolls
Beef tenderloin served with horseradish sauce
Chicken breasts, baked with panko bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese and pecans
Mashed potato bar with all traditional toppings
Grilled Green Beans
Corn and tomato salad
Chocolate torte

There is going to be a bar available. We just have to work out a few details. Ill post about that when it’s completed.

Also, every attendee will receive a 25th Anniversary PGCA Pocket Flask as an appreciation of your attendance. (At a recent auction one sold for $200):shock:

Sounds excellent Mike. I just bought 4 tickets from Dave. I think you will sellout before the July discount cutoff date.
I hope we see at least one Wigeon Duck Club gun.

[Mike Franzen]

If anyone has a Wigeon Duck Club Gun we would love to have it in our display.

[Dean Romig]

I hope the horseraddish is served separately and not plopped anywhere on my plate.....:nono:

[MARK KIRCHER]

The Hannah gun (widgeon duck club #8) will be there for the display.
I am really hoping for others too. Will the Cross gun be there???

[George M. Purtill]

Thanks Mark

Gentlemen, I have just spoke with the Manager of the Holiday Inn Express. There was a minor snaffu with reservations but, I have been assured everything is in order now and booking can commence. There are approximately 25 rooms available. If, you are going to the event and want to stay with the fun bunch I would suggest you book a room ASAP.

[Bill Mullins]

Thanks Mike! Booked mine yesterday and looking forward to seeing all my
friends and attending the 25th Anniversary meeting of the PGCA!
Long live the best shotgun organization in the world!

I am bringing the Cerritos gun club AAHE 16 ga. gun. The duck club was just south of Long Beach Ca.

[Mike Franzen]

I think Rick should be in charge of the Members Appreciation Gift from now on. The man truly has an answer for everything.

Are there tickets left for the banquet?

[Mike Franzen]

Yes sir, and our President has decided to honor the early bird price of $65 per ticket. Mr. Dave Suponski is the man to call and order your tickets. His number is 203-260-1275. Just give him a call and he will take care of you. Looking forward to meeting you.

I actually have one of those if anyone needs to borrow it...apparently my son-in-law was worried about my having adequate libations when I go on a trip...

the pipe is just there for scale, but you can borrow the plaid one too in case you need a little nip during the activities and don't think you can wait.
