If anyone in the area could attend for me, I could send you some things to get dipped.
They are having a special invitation event at:

You and a few of your bourbon-loving
friends are cordially invited to the
1st Florida Maker's Mark Family Reunion
December 12, 2000
7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
The Polo Lounge at the Ramada Plaza Beach Resort
4060-A Galt Ocean Drive, Fort Lauderdale, (954) 537-9122.

Our very own Bill Samuels, Jr., whose father created Maker's
Mark, will be hosting with lots of holiday cheer. We'll have lots
of appetizers, a few door prizes, and plenty of Ft. Lauderdale,
Miami and Tampa Bay "Mark of a Great Town" Maker's
posters for Bill to sign for you. Although we aren't able to pick
up the bar tab for the event (it's against the law, you know),
there will be a cash bar...stocked with plenty of Maker's Mark.

Plus, we're going to help you with your holiday decorating!
We'll have a pot of green wax for you to dip your red-wax Maker's
bottles in, giving them more of a Christmas look. So make sure you
bring a bottle (or two) of Maker's Mark with you.
