From Jim Ezell:
I have been contacted by the Sioux Tribe from the Royal River Casino on Int 29 in South Dakota about the possibility of sponsoring a CASI event. This is coming off the success of our Southwest Open sponsored by the Kiowa Casino just outside Wichita Falls. This would be a well funded event with a good sponsor. If you have ties to this area or your cooks are inclined to look at it, give me some feedback.

Their target would be July August September.

From Johnny Sullivan:
I take the Army TImes and there is a very good article in there about the CASI supported CCO to be held in Baghdad. This paper is available to Army and government personnel all over the world. Talk about good press for CASI!! If you are going to be at the Canton CCO this weekend, I'll bring it along for you to read. Johnnie

NOTE:  I talked to Shirley Bates last evening.  Guy was released from the hospital yesterday and they are at home.  He is still on Oxygen and he will see his Dr on Monday. 

This weekend (Sunday) is the CCO in Baghdah.  Good Luck to each of you who enter this CCO.  Jen Windsor is suppose to have an interview with CBS Radio (NYC) tonight at 7:30 pm about this CCO. It will air Sunday morning nationwide.  A BIG thanks to all who helped make this CCO possible.  It has been great publicity for CASI. 

This should be a beautiful weekend.  The weather even looks like it is going to be spring!  We're excited because we have kids and grandkids here for the weekend!  Here's hoping that each of you find lots of colored eggs!  Happy Easter!  Happy Spring!
