"Jim, since you are the expert on this event....can you share any insight as to the best places for us to be ...or time...or special insider knowledge? I really appreciate you help, since I have never been to this event. Thanks so much."

"Will do, Jim. Thanks for braving the weather last night!"

"Great seeing you again, enjoyed my first meeting and look foward to more, feel free to call on my if I can be of assistance."

"Enjoyed my first meeting, thanks for helping put this together, look forward to more in the future."

"If I can be of any help, I'll be there early at the start of the parade, feel free to call me if I can assist..[masked]"

"OK. Thanks Jim. Maybe I'll see you there."

"The St. Pats parade is fun, as the event photographer just be certain not to go into the street, and sale of images for the event are prohibited. Otherwise, look forward to seeing anyone down there, it is a lot of fun."
