Jan 21, 2010 I am glad to report that the team has been successful in meeting the registration information deadline.   You can see this in the Spring Marker Lamp and of course, the website.   A lot of work in hammering the final details but I believe that those attending will have a great adventure. 
For the Ladies, the Central Market Place Class is a treat that will delight all that attend.  Here is our Event Coordinator. Ms Evie Scott  to tell us about it. 

Alamo Rails Central Market Cooking Class & Lunch
Whatever your level of expertise in the kitchen, you’ll always learn something new and exciting at HEB’s Central Market Cooking School.  They have earned a reputation for world-class instruction by offering culinary expertise from their talented chefs as well as a diversity of local, regional and nationally known chefs and culinary instructors.  We will travel to HEB’s Central Mkt. by private van.  Cooking School is scheduled for noon and lunch is after class.  You will get a chance to do a little shopping or browsing at Central Market before we return to the hotel.

 The Prototype tours are geared for the model railroaders.   The quarry, with its gravel cars and buildings will give modelers ideas as to how the actual quarries handle the tons of material that is needed to keep the construction industry going.   Don Scott has some information on that.
