Badgerland F100's Dash to the Dells 13 is being held Sept. 13-15th at the Copa Cabana Resort in Wisconsin Dells. To reserve a hotel room call 1-800-364-2672. It is usually best if you ask to talk to Sue. For show info email ford54@execpc.com or f100bobw(No Email Addresses In Posts!) This year they are giving away a 460/C6 and a restored Ford gaspump. I think it is listed in the Events page of this site too.
Friday afternoon is the cruise and the Sock Hop is that night.
Saturday is the show, HotWheels racing, valve cover racing, free lunch, and awards
Sunday is coffee and donuts
I would go for Friday and Saturday
Wisconsin Dells has their largest fesival of the year that weekend. They have an arts and crafts fair all weekend. They also have an excellent parade on Sunday afternoon but most of the truckers leave that morning.
Thanks for the info. Sounds like there will be plenty to entertain my wife too. Pigeon Forge is too far for me to attend every year so this is just perfect.
I just took a look at the Badgerland club web site. Is this just a show and shine? I thought there might be parts for sale. From the looks of the gallery, there weren't any stock trucks there, either. Looks like I wouldn't get much out of the trip. Are there any other shows/meets in the midwest that would be better for a guy looking for stock parts or restored trucks to use for reference? Maybe the Iola old car show? Is there a big swap meet at the Pigeon Forge Nationals?
I am planning on going this year, finally. I will be driving my stock '49 F-2. I am trying to convince my neighbor to bring his mostly stock '52 F-1. I own property not far from the Dells and plan on camping for Friday and Saturday.
The Jefferson swap meet is September 28-29 go to [link:http://www.jeffersonswapmeet.com/madisonclassics.html|www.jeffersonswapmeet.com/madisonclassics.html] The last few years it seems, to me, that most of the stuff there is post '75 GM but you never know what you will find and if you're not too far it's a big swapmeet and it might be worth drive.
