We have always planned a dinner together somewhere on Saturday evening of the Invasion. We usually just invade a local restaurant, but we end up scattered about trying to seat us all. At the last Invasion in NY, Dave and Gail catered in the Saturday night meal to the Invasion site and we all got to sit together and socialize and it worked out great.</div><div><br></div><div>This year we are doing something similar. Our hosts, Ken and Sue Rogers, have lined us up with the Gurley Street Grill for our dinner. They have a banquet room that can accommodate a group our size and will provide an all-you-can-eat buffet style dinner. The details for the menu are below. The price also includes all taxes and gratuity. Couldn't be easier. We have the room from 6:00pm until 11:00pm. Dinner will be served at 6:30pm.</div><div><br></div><div>The price is only $20.00 per person.</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Menu</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Entrees:<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Sliced Beef, served in a rich Au Jus sauce</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Rotisserie Chicken, slow roasted</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Parmesan Crusted Tilapia, topped with fresh tomato feta salsa</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Starches:<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Rice Pilaf</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Herb Roasted Red Potatoes</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Vegetables:<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Fresh seasonal vegetables</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Other:<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Fresh Bread Sticks</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Dessert Tray</div><div><br></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Drinks:<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Coffee</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Tea</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Sodas</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Water</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span></div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>NOTES:<span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>For those with special dietary needs, a limited number will be able to order from the menu</div><div><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre; "> </span>Beer, Wine, Drinks can be order from the servers on your own tab. (Not included in the dinner price)</div><div><br></div><div>The room is reserved for us already, but I have to commit to the number of diners by Tuesday, June 14th so that the restaurant can plan for our Saturday dinner. I will not have to pay for that number of diners until Saturday evening though. So, I am asking each of you to let me know if you plan to join us for the dinner Saturday night or not. Please respond to this email by Monday - June 13th with the following information:</div><div><br></div><div>Invader Name: __________________</div><div><br></div><div>Attending (YES or NO): ___________</div><div><br></div><div>Number of Diners: _______________</div><div><br></div><div>Special Dietary Needs: ___________</div><div><br></div><div>We will have wrist bands for everyone taking part in the dinner. When you pay me on Thursday, Friday, or Saturday, I will give you your wrist bands. The wrist band will be your ticket into the banquet room at the Gurley Street Grill and will get you your dinner plate. I will be charged for each plate that is used, so please re-use your plate if you go back up for seconds or thirds. <G></div><div><br></div><div>If you are unsure if you will make it to the Invasion or unsure if you want to participate in the dinner, please don't commit now because I will be on the hook for your spot if you do. We will have the opportunity to add (not subtract) to the number of diners by NOON on Saturday so you can still join us at that time. Just find me before NOON on Saturday and have me add you to the list.</div><div><br></div><div>Restaurant Details:</div><div><br></div><div>Gurley Street Grill</div><div>230 W.
