Announcing the Second Annual Fresno Tailgate and Rally - September 12th and 13th, 2003, Thread II
Fresno/Central Valley Chapter ^ | Aug 20, 2003 | Jim Robinson

Posted on 08/20/2003 10:36:53 PM PDT by Jim Robinson

The Fresno/Central Valley Chapter cordially invites one and all to our second annual Fresno Tailgate and Rally on Friday and Saturday, September 12th and 13th, 2003.

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 and refreshments at the nearby Ramada Inn.

Our tailgate pot-luck picnic will be at Woodward Park on Saturday, September 13th. We have the Mountain View Picnic Area from 3:00 pm until 10:00 pm.

The entrance to Woodward Park is on Audubon Drive, just off Freeway 41 on the northern edge of Fresno. The Mountain View Pinic Shelter is near the center of the park and is the second parking lot on the left from the Audubon entrance.

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

I wish I could come, but it reminds me of a snide remark Prestowitz made to the World Affairs Council about SUVs. Someone didn't want to limit SUV sales because (I'm paraphrasing) it would be anti-American. Most important discussions occur on the tailgate of a pickup truck, he chorttled. Then he went on to say that was absurd and that we should do everything we could to (in my words) bring back Carter's days of malaise and conservation.

Drive your trucks to meet with pride, and know that there is a Bay Area freeper advocating California off-shore drilling and drilling in ANWAR so that you can each meet in freedom while we come up with alternative fuels :)

Oh man...It's latrine duty for the rest of the day. The First Wife (aka Wife #1) just informed me that her class reunion is that weekend and we have spent big bucks for all the goodies ( rubber chicken and stringy meat). ; - )

It will be great to see you on the 13th.

We'll decide on food later.

I'm adding you to the guest list; will your son and hubby be joining us again this year?

We stayed at the Mariot and probably will again. Are you going to go up on Friday? We went out and protested with Jim last time and stayed over that evening.

The Marriot is very well located. I think your hotel last time was just about as good. The room was nice. They had a great indoor pool also.
