***DATE CHANGE *** CHITOWN HERF III Aug. 5-7, 2005
Nothing like posting WAY EARLY for a big herf ! Heres the deal :
1) Friday Aug 5th- 4pm to ?? Preherf on DOCs deck ( food compliments of Mr & Mrs DOC) 2) Saturday Aug 6th 2pm to ??? Main herf Jaks Tap 900 W . Jackson Blvd A great place with great food, cigar friendly and over 60 microbrews on tap. Auction of cigars and other smoking memorabilia with proceeds to the Chicago Womens Service club. 3) Sunday Aug 7th 11am Closing brunch at Riverside Cafe 1700 W Cortland Ave. ECLECTIC brunch that Mary serves that is Tex-Mex, Filipino, French and Cajun and God knows what else. Outdoor seating with cigars !! Chicago in July is really nice and the Cubs, Whitesox play MLB and there are TONS of other things to do here. The lakefront is in high gear and we have great shopping, live music and the new MILLENIUM PARK. I can help with arrangements on places to stay, directions, etc. and we have had CW people from all over the world at the last 2 shindigs. Iam hoping for attendance of 50+ BOTLs and SOTLs this year !! The one dowwah game ( thanks Poker ) will be played at Jaks after the auction !!

I'll add it to the list of things to try and attend this year. By the way, when is the Taste of Chicago this year? If it's around the same time, I've already started my lobbying campaign.
