2007 South Carolina Summer TOR
Posted in Patch Collecting by John E. Pannell on June 4th, 2007 at 1:28 am Summer is almost here in the Carolinas. The weather has turned hot and “a chance of afternoon thunderstorms” will soon be a part of the daily weather forecast. So, that must mean it’s time for a Trade-O-Ree!
According to http://www.streamwood.net/, and Chris Jensen’s message on patch-l, the 2007 South Carolina Summer TOR will be held:

Does your summer Trade-O-Ree schedule look empty? If it does, you need to join us for the THIRD ANNUAL SUMMER South Carolina TOR! Like our popular January TOR, this event will be held at the Palmetto Expo Center in Greenville, SC. This is a professional venue that offers a quality experiece for all of our visitors. There’s nothing like summer in the south, so we’re going to make sure the air conditioning is turned all the way up.
Loading docks are also available make it easy to bring lots of Scout stuff. That way, you can save your energy for the real fun. The Phoenix Inn is located just a few yards away and has special rates for the SC Boy Scout Trade-O-Ree. Room rates are listed below and inlcude free wireless internet access, breakfast buffet, free parking, and a courtyard pool to help you stay cool. Complimentary pick up from Greenville/Spartanburg International Airport and Greenville’s Downtown Airport is also available with an appointment.
Just like our January TOR’s, tables go quickly, so register early! We are well on our way to exceeding 100 tables that were sold for the January TOR.

Chris and his staff do a great job running TORs. With no national level event this year, this will be this year’s best summertime trade-o-ree. Unlike the folks at MSU, we know what air conditioning is here in the South!
This single statement took the scientific world by storm. It completely revolutionized it. So many mathematical conferences got held in such good restaurants that many of the finest minds of a generation died of obesity and heart failure and the science of math was put back by years."
[...] Barring a lack of someone to look in on my cat, I will be at this year’s SC Summer TOR. I’ve missed both the Winter and Summer TORs the last few years, so I’m more than overdue to attend. I will be splitting the driving and lodging expenses with a friend of mine living in the lodge 104 area. [...]
