Shawn, your first banquet is quite an event. My first one, I walked into the hall & wow OVER 300 MEMBERS. I did not know most of them, so I just walked over to a table with 6/7 members & sat down with them. (A couple have become good friends) had a blast, everyone introduced themselves, & started talking about chips, a great night. This is another way to meet other members. Best to you, "MR SPLASHBAR"
