The '08 SMF Smokin' Roundup will be June 19, 20, 21, 22 2008.
We have the site from 6PM Thursday the 19th to 6PM Sunday, the 22nd.
Location is Thibaut Point Park on Truman Lake, Missouri
(Thibaut is pronounced "teebo")
Now -
If you, as a SMF member, are SERIOUS about attending, and I am talking REALLY SERIOUS, send me a PM with your email address. I will email an "Information & Application" form to those SERIOUS about attending.
How SERIOUS you ask?
There will be an advance NON-REFUNDABLE fee to attend which goes to pay for the location fees, regardless of where you stay, camping or motel. Any way you cut it, we have to have a place dedicated to this event. Any funds left (if any) after paying the rental fees will be used to buy plates, cups, utensils, etc. for the group. Object of the game is to break even, no one is making money off this event. Any other left over funds (if any) will be used to buy items for a give away drawing. 100% payback to the group.
I am also hitting the KC area sporting goods dealers, BBQ stores, Wal-Mart, Bass Pro Shops, Cabelas, etc. begging for items to give away. Hope to come up with some good swag.
The cut-off date for applications will be May 19, 2008.
This will give us a close approximation of how many and who will attend. Last year that was a big issue, there were people who had volunteered to cook a meal for the group who backed out at the last minute and some who said they would be there who just failed to show. Makes planning group meals almost impossible.
I SINCERELY HOPE TO SEE AS MANY OF YOU THERE AS POSSIBLE.
Old & New friends and good eats!
Mike
