Description
Please Note: In light of the Berkshire AGM being converted to a virtual event, we are cancelling the 2020 Yellow BRKers.
You are invited to join us on Friday, May 1st, 2020 at the DoubleTree by Hilton Omaha Downtown, starting at 4:00 pm and you can linger until 7:00 pm (or longer).
This is a casual atmosphere. It's a "happy hour" type of gathering - not a formal dinner or anything of that sort.
The Yellow BRKer Party is a 100% informal and unofficial gathering of Berkshire shareholders. It's been held the Friday before the annual meeting for over 20 years. In the early years both Warren Buffett and his daughter Susie Buffett would attend the party. In fact Susie Buffett named the group the "Yellow BRKers" after her favorite movie the "Wizard of Oz" and the yellow brick road in the movie. So we won't dare upset the Buffett's and change the name! Every year about 200 people show up. Some are long time shareholders and for some, it's their first annual meeting.
The event is just a common time and place for Berkshire fans, supporters, and enthusiasts to reconnect with old friends and meet new ones before the official weekend.
Important Note: To defray the cost of putting on this event we are collecting $10 from each attendee. We prefer that you prepay, otherwise you may pay at the door.
If you have any questions or suggestions please email: Alexbossert@gmail.com
I hope to see you in Omaha!
