Get together news....

Gang.... looks like the problem of what to do for a get together is solved. Since FTE took charge of the Ga LoRiders picnic last year, they've invited us back. Along with Southern Ontario Classic Pickups, Club FTE has been asked to joing them in their Friday evening picnic. They are taking care of everything. They simply ask that we provide our own drinks and pass the hat to help cover the expenses.

I don't see how we can turn this down as it will mean a couple hundred trucks and family in one place! As to those who are arriving later, we can arrange a breakfast for Sunday or Saturday morning.... let me know your thoughts.....

YES!!


This sounds great to me also!! And will gladly join in for as many meals as we can pack in during the weekend!!

Ken, any chance there might be additional booth space next to the FTE booth inside? I still think it would be nice if some of us could sell a few NOS parts we have and share the booth space cost. I would be glad to donate a percentage of my sales to the FTE just for helping out! If we go used stuff then we would have to be outdoors which is fine for a time share deal also. Any interest folks?

I can't wait!!!!!!

Dan

I really wish I could but we're going to have 2 3.5"x5" tables and 1 3.5"x8" table completely PACKED with FTE's stuff. We've got some surprise new products (ie, not book, decals and literature) we're going to be show-casing. I just don't see how we can do it.

You may want to talk to Ed Owens at the Ga LoRiders. He's got an outdoor booth set up to sell stuff for that club (he pays for the booth himself). If you're willing to donate a portion to that club, they'll probably let you use the space. Towards the end of the show, perhaps Saturday afternoon, if we have table space cleared (God willing that sales are good), I'll be willing to put any NOS you have on the tables.

Well, shucks.... Since I won't make it early enough Friday to make the picnic, I guess I'll miss out.

However, I'd still like to hook up unofficially with anybody who'd like for breakfast. I'm leaning heavily towards Smokies Breakfast House at about 8:00 - 9:00 Saturday morning. After all, I'm here to look at trucks and get together with my FTE friends!

Count two for me.

However, time is fastly approaching and I sill have no clue where or when!!!

Looks like Breakfast is the vote winner....I definately vote for something in walking distance of the grand...or by trolley. Traffic will be horrible and I don't want to be in it...too many trucks to look at!!

Oh hey that sounds nifty. I should be able to make it
for the picnic, so count me in (don't forget to mention
the time and where it will be at!)

And I would still be up for the breakfasty thing too, since
it sounds like some folks won't be able to make the pikanik.
Hey, we needa eat more than once per weekend

Where and When? I'd really like to try and make it, if'n I can get enough money together, and get this brake problem figured out. Let me know a date, a place, and somewhere I can sleep; I'll do everything I know how to get me and Bessie there ;-)
