Did we ever nail down Goatfest??

[djblade311]

I'm hoping to get an "official" GoatFest Event thread started.

I"ll definitely be posting up info, basic directions, rough coordinates for the camp, etc, here, and on the SoCal Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/groups/socalnaxja/ and on SoCalXJ.com.

I'm just hoping to get that official thread started so I can link to it.

im with you Carol. totally recommend that the official thread gets started with all the info and suggest adding the Facebook event to clear up any confusion. Sooner its done, the more ppl can start getting the PTO or plans going. It also gives me a deadline to get my junk fixed.

Well it's definitely the weekend before Thanksgiving, so there's your deadline!!

I'll bug Karstic & Jeeper John, since I dunno who to submit Event Thread requests to (Johnny?)

Haven't been to Goatfest before, but plan to be there this year. It'll give me an incentive to finish all the stuff that needs fixing on my rig!

Where did the name Goatfest come from? Does it have anything to do with Goats? If so, I can bring mine.

Its shorthand for "Richard 'Goatman' Gauthier's Rock'n XJ Jamboree!" I wouldnt suggest bringing your goat, after the booze gets flowing, cracker gets a little weird about animals not smart enough to run away.

 

[mako my day]

We could eat it too if needed.

What you do with your goat is your business.
