I've already made the reservation. Two lanes can hold up to 10 people, so if we are going to have more people I need to know ASAP to reserve another lane. It's a BYOB and food establishment, so I'll bring the pizza - you bring the beer :) If you plan to attend please let me know so I can adjust our reservation as necessary. Thanks! Dawn Baltimore.pm
