Chamber Jan Bash
Happy December ALL,
Ran into Barbara Lum at the Green Market (Farmers Market) today and she and I discussed her plans for decorating one of the Chamber's Tables with the Amelia Island Film Festival motif.... Great! I told her to include 2, maybe 4 tickets for the January Sneak Previews plus a Complete Pass for the Film Festival in September for the Silent Auction. (her design won the biggest donation last year!)
I think we (AIFF) should try to purchase a few chairs for sure.
What do you guys think? If we buy early they cost $ 49 each instead of around $ 75.
Please advise. Anyone interested? Tony
P.s. Cathy and Julia have suggested a "thank you Sunset Cocktail Event " from the Film Festival at the Hotel for either Friday or Saturday the weekend between Christmas and New Year's Day. The Hampton Inn & Suites has agreed to sponsor us the venue!! I have a Gift Certificate from the Arts Academy for 1 hour of Guitars Playing (not maids a leaping). Any suggestions contact Cathy or Julia asap.

A Usual day in Old Fernandina
What a usual day I had in Old Fernandina today!
On my first day off from this week from working at
the Hotel I was enjoying walking in HistoricDowntown
chatting with friends and window shopping.
When to my surprise "Big Phil"at the Ship's Lantern
mentioned that Kevin Spacey had been spotted
at Seattle's Best Coffee Shop. "There he goes now!"
she said. I looked out onto the street and saw 2 men getting
into their vehicle in front ofthe Pineapple Patch.
Determined I crossed the street andapproached
the car from the rear and knocked on the closed front window.
"Excuse me, please," I stated as the window opened.
"My name is Tony McAdoo and weare planning a new film
festival here on Amelia Island for next September.
Would you like to join us?"
The driver and Mr. Spacey listened politely and
told me how to contact them in London for more information.
I thanked them and watched the black SUV negotiate an
illegal u-turn and head eastwardly down Centre Street toward the Ocean.
Mr. Spacey is here visiting our Island while working on a new movie, RECOUNT being filmed in Jacksonville. Maybe we could arrange to screen it next yearduring our Inaugural Season!
