Seriously?  If you have to ask this question you need a vacation more than the rest of us!!!  Smile

Since you came to this page looking for an answer to the previous question - I'll give you the basics. 

Back in 1988 (08/08/1988) Mark S. Wilson (me) invited his friends and relatives to join him for a birthday celebration on the beaches of Ocean City, Maryland.  Friends from Missouri, Florida, Virginia, Colorado, Texas, Montreal, Toronto, and Jamaica all converged on Ocean City for 3 days of fun in the sun.  On 08/08/2008 we are celebrating the 20 year reunion of that event.  It should also be mentioned that 08/08/08 as a calendar number sequence only occurs every 1000 years so why not party it up since we won't be around for 08/08/3008.

And You Ask - WHAT IS THE PLAN???  As of right now, there isn't any structured plan.  This isn't a military base nor a corporate time management conference.  You are on VACATION so act accordingly! 


There will be one night that we will all get together (
08/08/08 at 8:00 PM) at a designated area at the RIU Ocho Rios Resort.  There will be some sort of speech about the significance of the day that brought us all together and a few philosophical words about life, love and the beauty of the friendship that links us all together to create the web we call Mankind!  (maybe thats all a bit too deep for a vacation spot...)

We are asking for one small favor from every participant.  We would like you to write a short story about how you know Mark Wilson and/or Venus Roman Wilson.  It should be more than 50 words but less than the book "War & Peace".   You can email your story at any time prior to 7/8/08 to this address:
  Story@mswilson.com.  When you submit a story you will receive a small token of appreciation (big things come in small packages).

Now call our designated travel agent to book your trip, make yourself a frosty caribbean beverage, and practice saying, "No Problim Mon" until we see you on the beach!

Cheers,
Mark & Venus
