As many of you are aware, the Cobra world lost a prized member this past weekend in the form of Lewis Downs. The reason for this thread is that the memorial service for Lewis conflicts with this year's End of Summer Run - 9/9/06 and I need to know if there are enough people interested to maintain the Run.

I see it that we have three options: 1 - continue as planned; 2 - postpone until SUNDAY September 17 (the Winery is not available on 9/10 and I can not make it on 9/16); or skip this year's event entirely.

I of course mean no disrespect to Lewis' memory as he has been a staple in the Cobra and Shelby community around here for many years. However, I expect that many people who plan to go on the Run may not have known him or may not plan to attend his memorial.

As such please join in the poll and let me know your preference. I need to let the Winery know ASAP if we are canceling or rescheduling. Also if you have not responded previously, let me know which day (or both) works best for you. For now, the event is still on for September 9th.

Thanks - Tom
