> Well, it's only me, Mike Turner from England with an
> additional e mail
> Address that i will be using for correspondence
> regarding the proposed UNITED
> KINGDOM GIANT PUMPKIN GROWERS group that i am
> attempting to get set up for

>
> I can still be contacted at MTu4639875@aol.com but
> for the purpose of this

> proposed UNITED KINGDOM GIANT
> PUMPKIN GROWERS as my URGENT request for information

> possibility of the group actually becoming a
> reality. SORRY for the confusion
> but i had to give some explanation for the different
> e mail address on this
> posting.
>
> Now to the point.
> I have been approached by David, the manager of my
> local Pub, or bar as i
> understand they are called in the usa & canada, and
> he has asked me if i
> would be interested in being involved with an idea
> he has to generate
> publicity for the chain of restraunts and Pubs that
> my local Pub is a part
> of. Dave's idea is not only aimed at creating
> publicity for the chain of Pubs
> and Restraunts but to help promote growing Giant
> Pumpkins and the fun
> involved with growing them.
>
> The basic outline of Dave's idea is to set up a
> challenge between the pubs
> and restraunts in the chain and see who can grow the
> heaviest pumpkin next
> year. I am not yet sure if such a Weigh-Off would be
> an open event for anyone
> who wishes to enter or if it would be for Pub and
> Restraunt entries only. I
> have another meeting with dave to discuss this
> further this evening when i
> hope that i will have more information on his idea.
> Dave had such an idea
> when he weighed and cut open a 410 Lb Pumpkin that
> was in the Pub for a guess
> the weight of the pumpkin competition. When he
> opened the pumpkin up he saved
> the best seeds from it and is drying them for
> possible distribution to other
> Pubs and Restraunts who may want to take part in the
> Pumpkin competition.
>
> At the moment Dave's idea is just that and there are
> a lot of things to get
> put together in order for Dave to put his idea to
> the area manager this
> Wednesday December 8th. I have offered my services
> to Dave and i will be
> supporting the organising and build up to such a
> Weigh-Off should his idea
> get approval from the company that owns the chain of
> Pubs and Restraunts. I
> also hope that as part of the Giant Pumpkin
> challenge i will be able to get
> my proposed UNITED KINGDOM GIANT PUMPKIN GROWERS
> group up and running. I have
> suggested to Dave that it would be highly beneficial
> both for the chain of
> Pubs and Restraunts and for the UKGPG if the UKGPG
> were to become a branch
> member of the GPC.
>
> This is where i need and would be most grateful for
> YOUR help in finding out
> the following ESSENTIAL and URGENT information about
> the GPC and what is
> exactly involved with becoming and being a GPC
> Branch Member Group.
> 1. Is there a web site for all the relevant
> information and rules about
> becoming a Branch Member of the GPC.
> 2. Is there a charge for becoming a GPC Branch
> Member, if so what is the
> cost.
> 3. What support do GPC Branch Members get from the
> main body of the GPC.
> 4. Is there a set amount of prize money that all GPC
> Branch Members have to
> offer at it's Weigh-Off's.
> 5. ANY OTHER INFORMATION WOULD ALSO BE GREATLY
> APPRECIATED INDEED.
>
> If you are able to provide me with the answers to
