This is an evening you will not want to miss. Many of our friends in the conservative community will be attending the ball, as will many of your fellow FReepers. Hope to see you there!
Kristinn, I hope you have an overflow crowd, and that, as it was four years ago, the FRee Republic Inaugural Ball is the talk of WDC on FRiday.
Sorry I will not be able to attend. Y'all have fun, now, y'heanh?
Hi, I'm possibly going to get 2 adult tickets from some friends of mine, but before I accept them I need a child's ticket for my 8 (almost 9) year old daughter. What can I do to see if there are any children's tickets available?
We still have room for a few children. You're okay for that.
Oh, that's great!! Do I just get tickets at the door or order them online?
Getting ready to take the train now. See you all real soon.
Ordering on line would be best.
Bundle up!
Leaving with sister in law tomorrow-early-and 'so ready' for this event-all of it! HOORAH! Will be good to see you and all of the DC Chapter who are attending....what you guys do, amazes me! (But I am going to miss Luigis!!) I hope we don't have to make reservations for the dinner on the 19th...see ya tomorrow!
Enjoy the ball, General Stand! I can't wait to see the pictures.
J.C. Watts in '08!
BTW, I e-mailed a copy of my receipt to my e-mail box and it's not there. Will I need a receipt? I thought that I did. (spacey part time blonde moment here)
Just show up. If you know your order number you'll be okay.
I guess we'll just show up and hope for the best. Thanks.
Sigh. I'm sooo sorry that I can't make it this year. All day I've been peeking at the TV hoping to see Freepers and longing to be with you all. Enjoy the ball and give us lots and lots and lots of pictures!!
