Sorry to hear this friend. Current economic conditions mean that we must pay attention to our employment and our employers right now. So, your situation is well undestood by all.

With regrets, we will remove your name.

Now, I must address a point. This is the Crossfires Across America 2010. An idea that seemed to have a lot more steam last summer when, perhaps, everyone optimisticaly thought life would be better by now. That optimism is fading and so, it would seem, is the excitement of this event.

Understood.

But, this is not Woodward, it is not The Dragon or Carlilse were everyone rents a room at a common place and has fun doing whatever they want with Crossfire friends.

This is not a gathering as much as it is,....an event. It will be unique and not likely to be repeated.

We keep hearing from people that hope that they can make it next year. Hopeful thinking.

I believe I speak for everyone in the Gateway Crossfire Group when I say;

We are damm glad to host this event.
We are damm glad to create the venues and the activities for this once in a lifetime event.
And,
We Are Commited to make everyone who attends, damm glad they came.

And when you all return home and speak to your Crossie friends, who didn't come, you can say, "Damm, you missed a really good once in a lifetime experience."

'Cause that is what it will likely be. Don't count on "next year" here in St Louis. We plan on doing it right but we also plan on doing it "once."
