I don't think that contest will ever happen again. Also last year New Holland was the North East's largest event with over 72 teams. It was also one of the best run events, even with the large team turnout (I heard that there were zero noshows). The people who ran it left charcoal, lump and wood out for us if we needed it on Friday night. You just settled up on Saturday if you took any. Hows that for trust. New Holland is the best contest we cooked in last year. We did not cook at New Paltz so we can't comment about it but we highly recommend New Holland. Mel does a great job!
 
Oh Boy did I sleep through new years again??

I just want to finish 2006 in one piece.. Looks like 2007 is
going to be real busy.. Hey M. don't forget we want to do all

we've got things in the works too... I don't think it's EVER too early to start planning. People give me crap about it all the time. This is it so far...

Snowshoe MA March
Grillin' On The Bay, NY (judge probably) March
Pork In The Park , MD April
Memphis In May May
Peter's Pond MA June
Merrimac, NH June
Lake Placid July
Harpoon July
Maine? August
New Holland, PA August
Lowell, MA September
Falmouth, MA or Oinktoberfest, NY first wknd of Oct
American Royal!! KC baby~! October (we just qualified for that one)

Whoa...that is twelve already! And there is at least one extra category (if not FOUR) at every dang one of them. Should be fun. I'll need a BIG vacation (to Lynchburg...heheh) after all that. That is all for now. There are a coupla more I am contemplating (Canada, some mid-Atlantic) we shall see what we get back in taxes. That is what funds lunchmeat usually.

NEBS is determining a 2007 schedule, as we speak. More to come on that later...

Actually, we're winding up our season, too...December 8-9 at Starke. The new season for FBA starts Jan 5-6 at Sebring. Our "off season" is July and August - why? we aren't sure. Probably too damned hot...so we travel "out of state" during that time!!:-D
 
You got da bug bad

Yes, I wish they weren't back-to-back. It's a too much time away from home to do both. I really enjoyed New Paltz, minus flies and rain, but New Holland sounded amazing. I got a long cold winter to mull it over while our brothers down South are still bringing in the victories.

I took a few minutes this morning and jotted down some potential contests for 2007 keeping in mind I'll probably need to go from eleven to eight contests due to a once-in-a-lifetime nearly free trip to Hawaii in March. Here's what I'm considering:

April 13-14: Osage City, KS
May 11-12: Platte City, MO (the moved this one from early June)
May 25-26: Great American BBQ - Kansas city, KS
June 15-16: Sedalia, MO
June 29-30: Cameron, MO (GREAT payouts!)
Aug. 3-4: Laurie, MO (shut your pie, Bob! :lol: )
Sept 7-8: Blue Springs, MO
Oct 12-13: DeSoto, KS or Columbia, MO (will decide later)

Might squeeze in another one if I can find an opportunity to not take Friday off and have someone set up for me.

Don't forget the Snowshoe in MA. It's usually held in March. It's not that far away -- Steve, Vinny and I droive there and back in the same day. And I'd like to see New Yorker kick some New England ass. :twisted:

I wonder if they'll let me judge again next year? :shock:
Click to expand...

You can judge Snowshoe if I can judge GOTB again... deal? I also drove there and back in one day. Pretty easy.

Oh wait...I think I heard...didn't a New England team just whoop A** at a NEW YORK state championship?... hee hee . All in good fun gentlemen, all in good fun.
I believe NY is in New England these days....and glad to have ya.

Good smack talkin' is truly appreciated... :wink: ...but, as Rich said...
