Lamonster
SpyderLovers Founder
It's taking me some time to put my thoughts together on the BBQ at my place. First I would like to thank all the folks that helped and offered to help make this happen, there's no way I could do something like this without the help from my friends and fellow SpyderLovers.
I would also like to thank the vendors for their generous support this year. We gave out some really great door prizes and lots of them because of them. I do know I could have done a better job at handing them out and if I ever do this again I'll make it so you can pick whatever prize you want from a table. That was one thing I know I did of messed up. Sorry
pps:
The guys from Top Choice did a great job once again and the line moved much better than it did last year. Thanks for the great BBQ guys. :doorag:
This year was bigger and better than last year and everything seemed to fall in place. The weather was hot but at least it wasn't wet. We had somewhere around 140 Spyders parked in my front yard and fed right around 250 folks. The fellowship was great and a good time was had by all. You guys managed to get in and out without tearing up the place and there was plenty of help with the cleanup. Thanks again for that. :thumbup:
I'll let the pics tell the rest of the story and feel free to post anything you would like to add.
Butch and Carol provided the Lamonster BBQ t-shirts and helped with everyone getting their tickets for the door prizes along with BumbleBee.
Harvey with SpyderPops was busy all day and into the night installing his product on some folks Spyders. It was really hot and I don't know how he kept up but he did.
CAT patches were handed out as door prizes and some were already on members vest when they got there. They looked great. :doorag:
I took down a fence and built some benches for the BBQ. It was good to see them being used. :doorag:
This RT was suppose to be presented to one of the attendees but for some reason it never happened. It did look great.
This is a real shade tree mechanic.
I guess this little guy made his way into the shop and freaked out a few folks. As you can see my wife loves the little guys.
The party is just getting going.
The BBQ was great once again and so was the fellowship.
There were so many Spyders in the front yard that it was hard to take a picture of all of them. I wish I had more time to look at them all but I was able to take these pics and the one video.
