I thought the food was very good, the service was acceptable and the speaker started out good but went on too long. After the pasta dish everyone at the table looked at each other and wondered if that was the main course. Mark Hall-Patton was an excellent speaker at the volunteer event even if the topic was away from our area of interest. If we can get him to talk about casinos I think he would be a great speaker at next years banquet.

I have no problem voting for another sit down meal next year.
