11th Annual Martinafest
Ok here are the plans but they can change the last minute, if you have ever been to Martinafest you know what i mean!!![]()
Were going to meet at the Fonner Keno Casino and Sports Lounge at 2:00pm, it's right next to the venue at the race track. They have table seating for 300 but they wouldn't let me reserve any tables but we should find enough room. You will able to play Keno, bet the horses(no live racing) eat, drink and mingle. Then sometime later on were going over to soundcheck, now I don't know what time and again it might not happen but those are the plans. Then after soundcheck we are going throw a little party for Martina, band and crew. It's like a reverse Fan Club party, instead of M thanking us for our support, we are thanking all of them for all the great shows this year and everything they do for us.
More details to come and remember these plans can change, so keep watching this thread.
Thanks, Keith

Re: 11th Annual Martinafest
Keith since this will be our first fan event to attend how will we know where to find everyone? I'm familiar with Fonner Park and the keno area, as GI is my home town, but I just don't want to miss out for lack of knowing anyone! :)
