How about Hogs In Heat in September?

Just thinking of another possible idea for a group get together. Might actually be able to meet you all. The first Saturday of the month, Rock Springs Cafe puts on their Hogs In Heat BBQ. This is outside on their lower deck. Live music, dancing and all you can eat beef, pork and chicken with the fix'ins for $12.00 per person. If you are brave enough, rocky mountain oysters are $5.00 additional. This is the place that has the famous Jack Daniel's pecan pie. After 7June, they shut this event down until September, so I thought this would give folks the time to decide. I just talked with a gal up there. They do take reservations so that all of us that want to can sit and enjoy together. There is a separate lot that is dirt that we could park the cars in. The regular parking gets kinda full. Time is 1.00 P.M. to 11.00 P.M.

If there is enough interest, they will set up an early reservation and can adjust the number to keep us together.

This would be a relatively short drive for the valley located folks. Just north of Black Canyon City, on the west side of I-17.

Being new to the forum, I do not know if this has been done before so I thought to see what the group thought.

Regards

Chas

As you know, I don't do a lot of thinking but FYI, we do a huge Corvette get-together every year there so most people are very familiar with the place and their rear parking lot.

Anyhow, this sounds like a lot of fun. It is also the same Saturday as C&C and Corvette Saturday at the PAVS in case it seems like there isn't a lot of interest. It's always somethin!!!!

Well my idea for a San Diego trip didn't work out and it appears this will not either so scratch this one too. Somewhere down the line maybe something will come together. Might actually get a day off when some other event is planned.

Adios for now,

Chas

I wouldn't write it off yet. Septembers a long way off and you just posted this. I'm sure there will be some interest as time goes on. Just give it a bump occasionally to keep it toward the top.

sounds like a good idea but as Eddie said it is a little ways off.

Don't give up on either. I spoke with some of the Yuma folks at the 10th anniversary get together, they used to do a run to Julian CA every year but had not anything cued up at this time. There might be the best opportunity to get a larger San Diego run put together. Otherwise, just post up a date YOU want to go and more than likely others may and will follow

September is the big Prescott show and generally near that time the Prescott folks have an event in BCC. The funny thing about this group is that something doesn't appear to get any momentum and then 2 weeks before it happens the doors get blown off and a bunch end up there.

^^^ don't give up. Decide what, when, where you want to have an event, and post it up here. Stick to your plan and be patient. Most posted events gather momentum, and like Jim says, some get huge at the last minute. . .

Go for it! :thumbs

This sounds like a good chance to get Francie out since her recovery has started. The last time we went there we made reservations at Cliff Castle Casino and saw Willy Nelson. Oh Yes, Francie is no longer on Chemo, so far is Cancer free, and trying to get her strength back after six months of living hell.....and only today asked when we can get out with the Vette again. If this flys, count Francie and me in.

Can't make it, my niece is getting married that day so we'll be taking a roadtrip to Ohio to see her tie the knot.
