Here's the low down on the ho down (&, no, it's not a brothel). We're gonna host a BBQ / party / M&G out here on the ranch on Sat. April 22. We'll have the BBQ fired up & beer flowing. The camp fire will also be blazing. For those of you not familiar with where we're located we live 1/2 mile from the nearest paved road in the middle of our ranch surrounded by almond orchards. What this all means is that we can get plenty loud & proud without disturbing any neighbors. Last year I think we had over 50 people come out. It's always a great time & all are invited, paid up members or those new & just interested in what our clubs about. Food is still being sorted out, but all are welcomed to bring out their own specialties. This is a family event so kids are more than welcome. I'll have the toys tuned up (couple quads, go kart, & my boys just got a wannabe honda 50). You're all more than welcome to bring out any toys you'd like to play on & ride around as well. For those driving quite a distance we do have plenty of space to pitch a tent for the night & plenty of room inside to toss out a sleeping bag. People wanting to bring out RV's or campers are also welcome. Festivities should begin early afternoon. If you have any questions, post them up!!!
