Thanks for the tip. We registered on line and have no welcome night tickets in our envelope either. That will mean a trip back to the convention center sometime tomorrow to get them as I have to be at the Fairgrounds to vend by 8am.

Welcome:
I got a paper "document" about the social that says at the bottom "Free, but ticket required". Is this just an invitation, or is it the "ticket"?

Thanks

Sorry to say what you describe is only the "invitation" You need to drive back to the Ramada Convention Center and get the actual tickets from Cornerstone Registration. One ticket is required per person; they are yellow in color and are individually numbered. Hope all works out for you.

Thanks. I'll take care of it in the morning.

I registered online some time ago. The email confirmation I received shortly after confirmed that I was signed up for Welcome Night. Upon my arrival this morning my ticket was in my packet.

Oh BShaw, you're always so lucky!!!

Ran some friends over to pick up their pre-registration packet at 10:40 this morning. No "Welcome Night" tickets were inside theirs either and they were told "NO MORE TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE"!!
Bummer

Welcome Night

Too funny!
Another sign of our aging society..
I can see the news at eleven.....
"Riot breaks out at car show when hoards rush gates for ice cream and cake"
"Disaster narrowly averted when presidential executive decision released strategic ice cream and cake reserve via voucher program"...

After some really quick thinking by our former SDC President, Mimi Halgren, everyone that showed up for “Welcome Night” got their cake & ice cream! Thanks Mimi for the tickets ...and for your service these past two years!!!

I got the message that "Only 500 tickets were available and were all sold out." I'm glad that the local news did not have to report "Elderly Studebaker drivers riot in Springfield because they were turned away from an ice cream social."

Anyway, we didn't go because it was my wife's birthday and she never was much interested in my Studebaker affliction. We had a nice birthday dinner at "Thai Peppers" in Springfield and then went to my son's house for dessert of rhubarb pie and ice cream (we brought the rhubarb from Montana) and opened presents. I did get tickets for "Fun Night" Thursday and my son will (probably) come over for the Concurrs that afternoon.

It has been an excellent meet so far, and the weather seems to be cooling down. The Springfield folks are very friendly and accomodating.
