Southern Classic and Women

I've been getting private emails from someone who has been telling me that
there wife is thinking that the Classics are "Men Only", and that they're
not sure whether we think wives should tag along. I've explained that we've
had wives and girlfriends attend these things before, and I'm sure we'll
continue to do so in the future. I'd appreciate it if everyone would put
their minds at ease by letting them know how we feel.
For those of you who've never attended one of our Classics, male or female,
let me assure you that it's a "not to miss" event. This is not a
professional, in any way, shape, or form, tournament. It's designed to let
everyone have a reason to meet people from this newsgroup, to put a name to
a face, and rekindle some old friendships. I can say personally that I've
made some true friends at these tournaments, and the friendships continues
away from the newsgroup. I think I've also gained a couple of step-sons in
line for an inheritance, they've already taken inventory of my rods and
reels. So please, if it's anyway possible, make an effort to attend the
Southern Classic this April, you'll never regret doing so.
