just got the email about the luncheon. i haven't done the luncheon before, but reading some of the forum members past posts (esp. hummingbird) has convinced me to at least go to one. so a couple questions1. is it the same mentors on both days? if i were to sign up for both days, would there be a chance the same rotation of people come to my table? is it assigned seating? 2. is it a wedding kind of deal where you can choose "chicken or fish," for the entree, or is it just one choice of food--- i have a very strict diet right now due to health issues. granted, the food is not the reason i would attend or not...just wondering (this way i can plan ahead and bring snacks for later if i can't eat much of the food at the luncheon)getting excited!****revision, i just found the answer to #2 by clicking on ordering a ticket, but thought i would leave the info up in case anyone else has dietary concerns:you can pick chicken or vegetarian--- works for me

It's "musical mentors"... one mentor for each table (and there's lots of tables). They change tables every 10 minutes or so... you'll get a wide variety during the entire luncheon(s).I think the first year, the mentors stayed put and everybody else changed tables... that was a mess (that's a *joke*).

Nobody gets married though.

That is a very good question hazineju. Are there going to be the same mentor's on the same day. I just purchase both days so if there is gong to be the same mentor's on both days I would only go to one of the two days. Can some please verify this information cant wait to dine with some of the members here.

Cool lets hope and pray that it will be the same and even better this year look forward to seeing you here.Peace JP

I went to both luncheons last year, and both luncheons the year before. I did not have the same mentors come to the table on both days, in both years. I can't guarantee that you won't get a second visit, but I just haven't in 4 luncheons.

Thank you for the information it's good to speak to people that has had past expericene at the Rally. Cant wiat to see you guys!

I think a few mentors are there both days, but many only one. I think it would be highly unlikely you would get the same mentor more than once, it's never happened to me and I've been to lots of these.

FWIW, I went to both luncheons last year, and I DID see one mentor at my table both days. But REGARDLESS...that's eight out of nine possible mentors during the two meals that I NEVER could've had up-close-and-personal time with any other way. And 7 out of the 9 took one of my CD's with them.That was worth the price of the meal all by itself. And it's a really nice meal, to boot. They sure were last year...I wouldn't worry about that, as it's a very rare thing.
