TARCon 13
« on: November 12, 2008, 11:12:27 PM »
This week, the date for TARCon was announced and it will happen on Sunday, December 7. No official lunch this time, but it will happen at Stitch just as the last one.

Just wanted to know who else plans to go. I plan on going since I don't want to end my TARCon experience at one.
Just here to visit.

I'm in! Chateau is in! :jumpy:

Please do let me know if anyone else from here plans to go so we can include you in any festivities!

And so far 9 of our Season 13 teams are planning to come! :hearts:

Well, get a fake ID, and then mail yourself over the border.  Then you'd be home-free; it'll be so easy, a caveman could do it!  LOL

But then who would be babysitting my kids?  :duno: You wouldn't even need a fake ID here Michael, cos you wouldn't be underage - it's a win-win situation  :angel: (except that you wouldn't get to go to TARCon and I would) :lol:

I hope more of you all can manage to come. We are thrilled that 10 of the 11 teams will be joining us there and I hear rumors of some of the Survivor cast turning up as well.

If you are coming, please let me know! We'd love to meet some of our RFF-er's in person!

Hello Brooke :jumpy:! Know that Michael and I as well as the rest of the TAR fans that are not attending will be there in spirit! Also, since you all might be on a football delay in NY, you can all check back here to see who wins before the show is over  :lol:

Nice!  Barring someone falling ill or getting too drunk at a viewing party in another venue, it would be a TARcon first.  Now all y'all need is for at least 19 former racers and you'll break the record of most past and present TARconners in a single event.

Sucks to pass on whatever y'all have planned, but by missing the festivities, it makes the next round of events (should I be at those events) that much worth it!

You're probably enjoying yourself right now, Ken, but if you liked TAR12 and assuming this time, you'll really have a blast when the next season ends in warmer weather (the spring).

Whoo--Hoo! TARcon 13 peach report #1!!  :kisses

We are having the most fun!

Last night was the kick off of what is turning into a truly amazing weekend.

We got to see Nick in his role in the Fantasticks! Oh what a wonderful voice!! The show was "fantastic" and we sat with his absolutely delightful parents, Caroline and Jim.

We all adjourned afterwards to an Irish Pub and were joined by Mark and his darling wife Colleen, Dallas and Toni  (so much fun!), Nick's adorable girlfriend Monica, Starr, and NYC hostess extraordinaire, Sarah!!  Dallas and Starr make the cutest TAR couple ever!

Here are Nick and Starr:


Nick and Monica:


Mark and his charming wife Colleen:


Jim (Nick's Dad, Nick and Bill)


And I think you can figure out the rest!!



















Today's highlights include mani's and pedi's with the girls, getting to meet Ken (swoon) and Tina, Brooke, Marissa, Christy, and Terence, and Anita and Arthur, and the pics to prove it!

More sometime later, I have to go have more fun now!!  :cmas0

I was in Manhattan for a friend's birthday party until 75 minutes ago. When we emerged to retrieve a car, it was indeed snowing hard despite weather reports that the snow would not start until midnight. It has stopped snowing in New Jersey on arrival 20 minutes ago, but there is at least 0.5 inches on the ground here. Manhattan is supposed to get more than an inch through 9am. Howevr, for those waiting in line outside of Stitch, there were be a 24 mph wind from the WNW to contend with between 5pm and 9pm. Wind chill will drop to 13 degrees as a result.
