Speedratchet Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Dwayne told me that the run is going to happen rain or shine. I'm trying to come up with an alternate meeting place for the picnic. I'll keep you all posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desertdawg Posted November 28, 2007 Author Share Posted November 28, 2007 If Gary can find a suitable place for lunch, I don't have a problem if people show up in there daily drivers (If it rains).We will be in our vette, I already checked it with the garden hose, it doesn't melt!!!ORWe can postpone this for now. I think it's up to Gary at this point because I'm sure has already stocked up for the cookout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The food has been purchased, so we'll have to have a picnic sooner or later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest 7 Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 40% chance rain Tucson on Saturday, 60% Friday. Dewey I don't think we will head to Phoenix for the porker run but will still head to where ever Gary says for the picnic and toy delivery. Rain, sleet or hail the toys have to get through! 007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedratchet Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Because of the bad weather forecast we are moving the Poker Run to Saturday, Dec 8th. On that day, the final destination, the Tucson Burger Burn, will be at the Elks Lodge, located at 1800 N Oracle Rd, Tucson AZ 85705-6445. This location will give us a little more flexibility since we will have access to their indoor dining area. We're sorry we had to make the change, but hopefully we will have better weather and more participation. Dwayne will post the changes to the route. If you will please verify that you will be attending on December 8, we will make sure we buy enough food for everyone! Elks Lodge Map Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grape Ape Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Well, now I can't make it. I'm in the same boat. This is the only weekend I have off till the end of December. So I guess you can count me out on this one. Man, I was so looking forward to this so we could meet some of you. Maybe next time. Sorry. I suppose Big Earl's will get rained out as well!!!

Desertdawg Posted November 29, 2007 Author Share Posted November 29, 2007 Yep, sorry to say but the poker run has been changed to the 8th. Hopefully this doesn't cause to much problem with the ACE Saturday lunch planned, but it was the only Sat. that Gary could get the Elks lodge...The 8th will be rain or shine, so drive your vette if you want, or you can drive your daily driver if you want, attendance is what matters..We are also going to drop off the toys ourselves at the Marine Corps drop off on Dobson. I will post a new map shortly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigfoot Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 With this being on the 8th I am now questionable and Stacie is a no go. Girls have dance performances that day. I'll see what I can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
