   Jacqui, you’re such an angel and bless you for bringing this to elk grove. Sounds like you outdid yourself this year and will defintely join you in 2008.

   Thanks John for sharing this with us and for letting us listen in on the spectacular event.

   Thank you.

   In a way, you have just “paid-it-forward” by leting everyone (around the world)be a part of EGO’s TIP NIGHT

   Merry Christmas

   I was sorry I missed last nights event. I attended the 1st Tip Night in Elk Grove and it was absolutely amazing. I can only imagine how last nights event turned out. The pictures and the PODCAST was GREAT! It allowed me to be a part of an event that I could not physically attend!
   Great WORK! John and Jacqui

   Okay Visitors through Christmas Day I have to say 195. (that is 65 guests times 3—PAY IT FORWARD) For comments I would say 22

   I am so proud to have been a part of this great night. What a good feeling I walked away with. Thank you Jacqui for sharing this remarkable event with us, and John thank you for putting it out there for all to see. I will make a guess–how about 526.

    Unfortunately, I’ve missed BOTH events! I really need to take vacation time just to go to next year’s. It sounds like such a fantastic event. It’s things like this that make EGO the best online/offline community out there.

    My guess is 212. I just like the number!

    Tip Night 2007 made my Christmas season. Jacqui you are truly a blessing to all of us and John thanks for letting us hear it again - that will make sharing the night so much easier. I am going to share the podcast with everyone I know so my guess is 365 with 100 comments. Thanks to everyone who attended (or sent a donation)!

    This was such a wonderful experience! Thank you, Jacqui, for organizing Tip Night 2007. John…you and your TOYS!!:) How fun it is to listen to all the participants. My only regret is that I didn’t mingle more. I’m so glad i brought my son with me. It made quite an impression.

13. On Dec 23, 2007, Kristin (boysenme) said:

    Oh, and for my guess… I’ll up Jo Ann’s by one. My guess is 527:)

    I guess 56.
    I had the pleasure of attending both last year and this year’s event. This is what makes Elk Grove such a great place to live; people really care. Thank you Jacqui for what you have done to help our community. I’ll keep my eyes open during the year for things to donate for next year’s event.

16. On Dec 23, 2007, Jo Ann (swoods123) said:

    OK–John said I may be a little high with my guess so I will cut it in half and say 263. I think that is half–mathjedi where are you? And John if 526 ends up being right I want my first guess back.

17. On Dec 24, 2007, Joy said:

    My guess is 193.
    Thanks for sharing that. What a great night.

    Thanks for posting this John. What a great event it was. Although, I was exhausted after chasing my 2 yo up and down the aisle all night. Whee! At least it required me to come out of my intro-verted shell, and say hi to more people.

    My guess…. 103

19. On Dec 24, 2007, Sharon said:

    I will guess 295.

    I attended the first one but had to miss this one. What an amazing amount of money you all donated!

    My guess for the number of visitors to this post is 228

    Thank you John for sharing. It is wonderful to know that the true meaning of Christmas was shown in an IHOP restaurant in Elk Grove. I can only imagine the joy and blessings these two people are feeling. There were 65 very caring and giving Angels at IHOP.
