Well even with the poor start with the weather this morning we still had great turn out (50+) and the weather came around in our favor for a perfect day. It was great to see some friends and meet a bunch of new ones. It was a wonderful chance to hang out with friends and family, check out each other's rigs and enjoy some good food. Turns out that Murfreesboro was hosting a community event as well complete with baseball games, Fire engine, ambulance, SWAT truck and the National Guard flew in one of their helicopters for the kids to climb in and check out. Our lead chef and SEC President PacificED returned for his duties this year. Accompanied by hie soux chef wingnutooa (the sleeveless lumber jack Joe) they turned out a good amount of burgers and dogs for us all to enjoy.

While the grills were heating up we took a group of the kids over to check out the National Guards helicopter and the ambulance.

After enjoying the bounty of food that everyone brought the kids had a good time collecting their Easter Eggs.

While the kids were all busy with sorting through their loot (Arrg thanks be to Fiona for the pirate voice) we took some time to sort out the awards.
Trail Rate This took home Tallest XJ.

redneck was the lucky recipient of both Most Mods and People's Choice. Some jerk forgot to bring the Long Haul award or redneck would have won that as well.

The swap meet was picked over by many of the members and I saw a lot of parts making their way out to new owners. (Great idea on the swap meet Cottontail)

We then had our raffle for some great prizes brought in by the BOD and again a big thanks to KGP416 for pulling in a great spread of items from local vendors.

We wrapped up the day with a few group shots.

Thanks to all of those who made it out. Thanks also for pitching in on supplies and/or helping out, this wouldn't have worked out as well as it did without you. Please share your pics in this thread so we can all enjoy them.

Your Resident Ogre,

Mr. Shrek

Looks like fun. What was up with the NG stuff being there?
 
I didn't even take my camera :looser:
 
I dont think Dan likes sharing his pictures.
 
i honestly didn't take that many pics of the M&G...
"people/event" pics aren't my thing really;

but i may stumble across them one day, and bring this thread back to the top, like i sorta did by mistake right now :dunno:
 
Dan took a picture of me pushing the kids cart full of eggs.. not that i want to see some fat guy scrunching down to push a cart but i thought it was funny

oh well.. on his camera for years to come!

:))
 
FYI, I cleaned up this thread regarding the recent crap that was going back and forth. Anything more regarding this will result in an immediate infraction.
 
What did I miss??:dunno:
 
Nothing too terribly important. If I say anymore I will probably get another unjust infraction.
Anywho, I figure I am gonna try to find these coils and hook the ZJ owner up.

What is involved in organizing an event like this?
I figure I will buy a couple packs of dogs and do this, can do it at my apartment complex, have a big playground for the kids, multiple outdoor grills, picnic tables, and about 20-30 spaces all to myself, maybe meet the local NC folks I know we have tons.

I figure plan for 20-30 people, so probably 60 dogs, some chips, lots of soda/water... Can flex the jeeps out on the carwash ramp LOL
