    That's interesting.....it's not the same form that they originally came out with. First one had no place for pics or signature...

    Just 2 hours long? Hardly seems worth the effort.

    I usually write a check for that much to the charity. I have no idea where the $250 entry fee goes.

    If you don't want to donate for a great cause, you don't have to attend!

    Excuse me sir but I have been one of the largest donors and have been at each one since the very beginning. I’ll kindly ask you to keep your judgemental comments about my philanthropic endeavors to yourself.

    You can excuse yourself, because I earned the right. At the FF in 2016 I wrote a check for $1000. A couple of weeks later I bumped into Franco at FoH and he personally thanked me. Back then there was no required admission fee, just what felt right.

    I’m man enough to admit when I’m wrong. I did get your PM Andy and have responded but since I was rude to you in public I feel like I need to apologize in public. I was unjustly rude to you and I hope you can accept my sincere apology.

    Got an invoice from F0H for $250 today so I guess that means I made the list....

    Either that or I was buying stuff again in my sleep....

    I think 10
    AM to 2?

    This is Franco's old party, moved down the street from Highland Village (which had a Parking Garage no one used) to where the new cinema is...4444 Westheimer is correct (which also has a Parking Garage, just find it!)

    Scuderia repeats in the Woodlands on 12/13.
    Take your pick, or like me do both.

    The entry fee (and Bear sales) goes to Texas Childrens Hospital as always.......no one pocketing any money I am aware of..
    FCA was looking for Volunteers.

    See you there, I will take Ducati...

    Or maybe the FCA or FoH gets the Entry Fee, but I don't think so.

    As dstacy says this is a little different than previous structure, which was voluntary entry, to let kids paw your car, and donations accepted (or you bought a Franco Bear! and the event poster, from a Hospital Candy Striper)......

    Dye the bills so they show up under black light, we will find them!!
    :D :D :D

    What is Scuderia?

    I know what the word means, what is this event and why on a weekday instead of a weekend?
