Hi Patrick,

Unfortunately, I have a work conflict tonight and can't make it.
Disappointed. Please keep me posted on the details on the January trip
(which coincidentally is Gay Ski Week in Aspen). Also, let me know what
kind of membership efforts the club has done to date. If has not been done
already, I'm sure we could get some of the bars interested in hosting
something, 3rd Coast Marketing's e-newsletter on gay events, etc. Lots of
options.

Also, here is a thought. T's up in Andersenville has a "guest bartender"
evening for charity. A portion of the evening's proceeds are donated to the
charity of your choice. I have been thinking of doing this for a while now.
No reason why the club could not piggyback on to the evening, everyone
invites friends, etc. Unofficial viral marketing kind of thing.

Regards,
Todd
