[Snakecharmer]

HEY TCC!

The below is a rough idea of the upcoming anniversary event. Date is locked so PUT IT ON YOUR CALENDAR!! A few things still need to be confirmed. BTW, this is MUCH simpler (and therefore more fun) than last years event.


TEXAS COBRA CLUB's 2002 ANNIVERSARY EVENT

Friday February 22nd
OUT-OF-TOWNER's WELCOME PARTY. Out-of-towners arrive. Hotel is the Bradford Suites. They'll reserve a big block of rooms and give us a discount. Enclosed Trailer Parking at Hotel. Open trailer and car parking also at the hotel or at Origin Systems' private garage with 24 hour security.

Welcome Party near Hotel from 7pm until ?. Austin folks will meet you at the hotel, or a block from the hotel at Bahama Breeze, North by Northwest, or La Tratoria (Stoffer), for some social time! Self-pay. Once we confirm a place, we'll post.

Saturday February 23rd
MEET and GREET
Cobras show up on top of Origin Garage and we get our famous picture with the Austin skyline in the background. I will confirm the garage. $20 per person for the day pays for awards, meals, and Saturday evening social. $10 non-member fee for the show and lunch.

LUNCH FOOD
Catered lunch. Sandwiches, chips, and drinks.

DRIVE
Poker run or cruise around Lake Travis. We'll take an alternate route through the beautiful Texas Hill country. The 60 mile maximum trip will take us through the scenic hills surrounding the Austin area. We'll stop near the lake for gas and a beer/coffee. Then we'll take the infamous winding Lime Creek Road back to the Social Event at JoeZ's ranch. This stretch of pavement is well known by sports car enthusiasts and sports bike riders. The snake-like road is fun to drive at any speed! Our club mechanic, Big Bill Andrews, will again be on hand to help with any mechanical needs and Charmer's trailer will be on standby for any emergencies.

EVENT SOCIAL at the Ranch.
BBQ, Beer, awards, live music, etc at JoeZ's ranch in Cedar Park, just one block from Hwy 183 in Cedar Park. Joe has a beautifully kept 3+ acre park-like property and house adjoining a horse farm. The cobras will enter a gate off of his paved road and park on the grass under huge, majestic oaks. The immaculate lawn will be lit up like a park all night. A big party tent with tables and chairs will be set up for dinner. Dinner will be the traditional Texas style BBQ with lots of side dishes, and hot dogs for the kids. Depending on the weather, we might need a few outdoor heaters. Ren Man will be donating kegs of his home brew. Standard refreshments will also be provided. Snakecharmer's band might play a set of Texas Blues. Horseback rides from the adjoining ranch might also be available. Tom Meadows will hand out awards, pick raffle winners, make some announcements, and tell a few jokes! We'll also take care of any club business and updates. We HOPE to have a special guest or two as well!!

AFTER THE SOCIAL. We will have a volunteer shuttle leaving to take folks back to the Hotel or parking garage on the hour every hour beginning at 9 pm. For those that remain sober, the drive back to the hotel is an easy 15 minutes straight down Hwy 183.

Sunday February 24th
DEPARTURE. Maybe breakfast on the way out of town?

SUMMARY
One heck of a good time!! There will be plenty of Cobra seat-time, good food, good drink, and great people! Don't miss it! I'll post directions, contact info, and event confirmations when we get them.

As usual, ALL cobra owners and enthusiasts from around the country are welcome!


Yeeeeee Hawwwwww!!
