Mini-Meets/Get-Togethers

[RustyNut]

Hey All....

I thinks so far we have 5 or 6 committed to attend.

I am needing to start making reservations/plans.

I believe the park shelter is reserved from 10-4. What time are folks wanting to meet @ the park? I am planning on grilling burgers & brats. What time should we plan on eating? How late are folks planning on "hanging out"?

Once I get a better idea of what time folks are wanting to get together and what time they want to be "on the road home" will help me with my hotel reservations.

Looking forward to another "Mini-Meet".

To all others who haven't committed.......

If you there is anyway you can make it to Wichita please do so!!!!!! Don't think you have to drive your truck. Fly in, drive in, **** hitchhike if you have to.

I will refer back to the original post. It is a great way to meet "good folks" who share a common interest.

Take Care ALL!!!!!

Hard to nail it down Mr. Rustynut but I'd say people will drift in maybe 10:30 - 11:00ish? But when you start grillin' they will come!! Then we can eat and hang around early afternoon kicking tires and tellin' lies. We will be traveling and so I don't know the exact arrival time. But I'll have the brownies on the table by grillin' time. The only thing I'd ask for is an address for this park? Tks. Foley.

I've posted a link to the park before. If you go back a couple of pages, you should be able to find it. Just click on "Map" on that site. The parking lot for the park is really easy to find. From US54, take the Maize Road exit and head south. When you get to Pawnee, turn left (east). The parking lot is on your left before you get to the end of Pawnee.

My brother sent this link to the house which is right next door to the parking lot:

This is still July 12 right? Man I gotta get on those hubs! Powder Puff is gonna kill me!

[RustyNut]

Fetch.....

July 12th????? You show up then you'll probably be the only one there, I thought the plan was June 22nd.

Foley (and others)... I will plan on having the meat portion of lunch ready for consumption @ 1230-1pm.

Beween now and then need a solid head count.

Time's a-wasting, Fetch! The meet is definitely Sunday, June 22nd. Get those hubs put back together ASAP! The rest of us are counting on you and Powder Puff to be there.

Rusty -- although the "official" times are 10 AM to 4 PM, since these meets tend to be pretty informal, you can bet people will drift in and out at various times. I doubt if too many will show up early though. Hopefully everyone's there by noon at least. I wouldn't be surprised if there are still a few of us hanging out well past 4 PM.

This sounds like a fun weekend. It would be nice to meet some of the members.
I haven't asked the wife what she has planned for then, but maybe we could drive up.
Would my '46 V12 Chemmy be welcome? If so, we might trailer it up. (Avatar) I've never taken it to any show yet. Had several visitors come to our farm shop to visit it, tho.
We live about 250 mi. s/w of Wichita on Hiway 54
We would come up to near Wichita the day before, spend the night so we could be there earlier the 22nd.

If a Kitty is being made up for misc. expenses, please post address, so we could submit a donation to help.
I'll be watching this thread to see how things come together. Hope it works out.

Cayoterun,

Of course Avatar would be welcome!!!!!! I have seen pics/videos on the internet and would love to see it in person.

Please don't consider this a "show". It is nothing of the sort. These "Mini-Meets" are nothing more than people who share an interest getting together.

As far as a "kitty" contribution. Really no need. As far as I know its kind of a "pot luck".... bring what you can. I m planning on grilling burgers and brats for all that attend, and others are bringing snacks and sides.

Hoping to meet you & Avatar next month.

In case anybody planning on attending the Wichita mini-meet in four weeks is looking for a project truck, my brother Pete looked at one today:

It's a little rough, but definitely has potential. Pete took a few photos, so if you want to see them, send me a PM with your email address.

Time is getting closer.

Was hoping to get a "For Sure" and "Possible" list of attendees.
