Announcing the Third Annual Fresno Tailgate and Rally - September 10 and 11, 2004
Fresno/Central Valley Chapter ^ | Aug 26, 2004 | Jim Robinson

Posted on 08/26/2004 11:20:06 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

The Fresno/Central Valley Chapter cordially invites one and all to our third annual Fresno Tailgate and Rally on Friday and Saturday, September 10th and 11th, 2004.

Our rally will begin at 5:00 pm and end at 7:00 pm Friday night, at the corner of Blackstone and Shaw in Fresno. Afterwards, the group will retire for dinner, refreshments and fine company at a nearby restaurant.

Our tailgate pot-luck picnic will be at Woodward Park on Saturday, September 11th. We've reserved the "Gazebo" area for the full day. We'll probably start arriving about 2:00 pm and will dine and party till dark.

The entrance to Woodward Park is on Audubon Drive, just off Freeway 41 on the northern edge of Fresno. The Gazebo area is near the center of the park (see park map).

Bring your flags, banners, signs, family and children. Prepare to support your country and enjoy the company of your good FReeper friends!

Thank you,

Jim Robinson
On behalf of the Fresno/Central Valley Chapter

I have seen only one Freeper say he wasn't coming.

So there are over a 100,000 that must be coming...

I just pinged my list, it includes quite a few people.

Oh, no. Someone's not coming? :-( Who?

Wow! That's one heck of a lot of tri-tip we'll be hauling up there. LOL.

Hugs to one of my favorite people. (I am still feeling very bad about not being able to make it to Monterey. Thanks for not being mad at us,....or for hiding it well if you are.) :-(

Well, I can promise all you can eat tri-tip for everyone. As far as anything else to go with it, I don't know. :-)

Do you think you might be able to get your mom to join us? We'd sure love to have her.

Hay no problem. It was a nice intimate family get together and quite relaxing for all of us.

The Robinsons were kind enough to let me come to their little cabin retreat in the Santa Cruz Mountains.

The driveway has so many hairpin curves, they pull this behind the 80' Motor home in case they need to haul it up the side of the hill. They let me drive!

Being as we didn't have a BBQer, good old j(ust)k(idding)photo, I just got some TV dinners and popped them in the Microwave. (next time I will Bar-B-Que them)

Just like at home, beep beep and Dinner's ready! LOL

Actually we did BBQ some World Famous Sausages made at the local store for the last 50 years or so. And some other goodies.

I saw this in Felton at a shop and was going to buy it for you but it was sold!

Wow. I never did see that thread you were supposed to write about the whole trip. Did you ever write it?

The Tiggywinkle Family will be at the picnic, Lord willing. :o) I can bring a couple salads to go along with the tri-tip. Is there going to be a tip jar to help *pay* for that tri-tip? Seems like such a large expen$e for the folks bringing it.

Free Republic pays for the tri-tip but jkphoto has the responsibility of the BBQ.

We did not ask for donations to cover expenses last year but we may this year. I need to see what is left in the kitty.

Also, FR supplies plates, utensils, etc.

I will get a list of those attending so we can start planning for salads, drinks, cookies, ice, etc.

While it's wonderful that FR pays for the tri-tip, I'd like donate anyway. So...set up a donation box, ok? :o)

Gotta get busy...I'll visit w/in the next few days.

We hope to see you on the 11th.

Of course, we always need ice. I will get a list of attendees soon and get a salad list ready. Will there be three total?

Hope you will be able to join our rallies on the 3rd and the 10th.

Mrs. D and I will be there. I'll bring my chocolate chip cookies if LadyInRed promises not to eat them all!
