I’d be up for that bus trip, you know must of us need an afternoon nap. the ride back would be perfect LOL. Perhaps instead of Big Als winter reunion?
schedule opening date for the 2012 season is March 31st a saturday
as Darwins mentioned in his original letter,
Thanks Bobby for the Grand Opening date in March,should be a ‘great’ show I’m sure,also it’ll be cool to see the ’roundy-roundy’ (stock cars,and sprints) displays they have also!
just got this from Darwin today, any questions about it his contact info is on the flyer,
I sent him 3 more t’s from the old canada races & my friend Tommy send an NHRA tech shirt from ’71 nationals @ indy when he was there with Castaldo with the ss car.

Hey If you get the bus trip together you should stop on the way home at the Shady Maple smorgasboard in east earl, pa.
Its located about tem miles from maple grove dragway so you can keep it in mind if you are in the area and like to eat.
HEY
Thanks Cully!!
Ive been there and done it!!
Closed on Sundays and if its your birthday ya eat for free!!!What a deal!!!
I figure it would be a 5 hr trip from Wingdale.gotta do some home work and see if we can pull this off !!

HEY
I sent a request in for info on a charter bus from JTR CHARTERS in Dover Plains,N.Y. to leave out of Windale or Dover Plains!!
THIS IS JUST TO FIND OUT HOW MUCH IT WOULD COST US !!!
A charter bus holds 23, 47 and 56 ODF’s!I guess that would include the beer coolers and 6 foot grinders and chips !!!One day trip on March 31st!!!Leave early get back late.Permission slips will be needed from some of you!! NO ,you wont need a passport to enter PA!!!!
I’ll post more as I hear it!!

Thought you guy’s night find this interesting . I was told by Bob Kieser that the Shady Maple refused to serve some of our servicemen who went to eat there wearing there uniforms . We used to go there all the time until we heard about this from Bob . I guess they have something against the army and war .
Maybe we should stop there anyway and show them what some older vets think of the way they are treating our boys…I think that would be FUN!!!!!!!
The shady Maples website addresses this claim that servicemen were denied service. I am a frequent customer
at shady maple and have seen soldiers in uniform eating there. The local tv station investigated asking people
posting this were you there and witnessed this? All answered no but they heard about it and forwarded it.
Did bob kaiser see it or did he just hear about it? I have seen military personel eating there.
Cully I realy don’t know for sure . Bob lives right down the street from Maple Grove and we were talking about going there for dinner and that’s when he told us about the issue with the servicemen .
V here is another number for chartered busses, they come from Patterson NY area, I go pass the mechanics shop to get my FD vheicles inspected and help a buddy with his ’62 dodge street toy,

HOPE IT HELPS. COACH TOURS IS THE NAME.
