geez, I'm not from the area but I *might* be there at the same time. Coming for the YSL exhibit at the Museum with mom. Realistically though, the GTG would need to be on the early side, otherwise I bump into grabbing a flight back to Philly. Guess I'm a tentative yes, then.

{I am driving up from Albuquerque, so we aren't likely to be there much before 3.}

3:00 or 4:00 would be best for me, also. And we can hit the restaurant down-time between lunch and dinner, which gives us more elbow room on the patio.

I haven't heard back from the Brio manager regarding the free appetizer cards I have, so that's not a good sign, but I will follow-up with him next week. Not a big deal, really, but maybe they will spring for something for us.

I would like to have a headcount by the end of March, to give Amy plenty of time to get Fodor's freebies to me.

It is on the calender but we are in the processes of moving/selling our house so it is hard to forecast exactly where we will be in at the end of May. I still vote for some where that is easy to drop in and out and doesn't require a numbers commitment.

WOW! I'm really late to this party, b/c I'm rarely on the US board - but I live in Denver! I'll come! and maybe the DH too!

Great to have so many! Should be a grand time.

Fmpden, we will have that ease for dropping in at either Kona or Brio, especially in mid-afternoon. Easy parking, too. We will put you down as a possibility. With plus one, or not?

Oliverandharry, glad you saw this thread. Will put you down for 2.

That gives us possibly 11:

Me
Martym + DH
Debit + DH
Tekwriter + DH
Oliverandharry + DH
fmpden + 1-- possibly

BetsyG?
Cobbie?

Others?

I'm hoping to be in London at that time but if it doesn't work out I will be there. Nice to know there are some other Fodorites here in the Denver area.

I heard back from Brio today. The manager said they will put us down for 12 people on Sunday, May 20, on the patio, at 3:00 or 4:00, pending our reply.

And they will honor four of my Free Appetizer cards, so that will be nice to have for starters. So come hungry! I told them we will be having lunch and drinks. They are being very accomodating, I think. And the menu looks great.

So I assume we want 4:00, to give Debit some breathing room.

Give me you final answer by end of March, plz.

This will be fun!

I will let Amy know to count on 20 for freebies, in case others can join us. Maybe even my DH!

Anyone want to volunteer to do name tags? I hate 'em, too, but they do serve a purpose.

I will do name tags!

And thanks for doing all this, Peace. 4 would be great!

Awesome! Debit, thanks. Knowing you are quite the cook, I think you will like the lunch menu, too.

I have never eaten at Brio, so am glad to try it. DH had some kind of a function there, which is why I have so many Free App cards.

We'll be there.

If you are attending, please email me at the same name at gmail dot com with your Fodor's name and real first name. Thanks.

Done.

Got it, Peace. Thanks~

Deb, did you get my information--sent it a day or so ago?

martym - no, please resend. Thanks!

Just resent!
