8th Annual Autumn Leaf Show Presenters Announced

I am happy to announce the show presenters and line-up for the 8th Anuual Autumn Leaf Railroad Slide Show. As far as attendance crowd, we are looking to shatter the record of attendees with over 90 people RSVP'ing for this years event. There are several who are coming in from out of State and from Canada to attend this years event.

There still may be some hotel rooms left at the Olympic Club Hotel - contact the hotel directly and ask for the "railroad slide show room block". Rooms will be at a special slide show rate. Also remember, the way that we make this show free is to ask that you order food and/or drink while at the show. Each year, we need to cover $4000 in food, beverage and hotel rooms in order to cover the one night theater rental. The reason this is so high is that during our show, they close the theater for two movie showings, so there is loss to the Olympic Club from tickets and food and beverage.

Since this is a perfect venue and logistical venue for this show, we want to continue to be able to use it so we ask that in lieu of admission prices for the show, we ask you to order some food, soda or enjoy a pint and watch some fantasic shows.

Here is the show line-up for the 8th Annual Gathering!
