Who has 2008 Schedules Finalized Already?

[BanditBBQ]

Still not set in stone, but here's the minimum that we're looking at doing...

March - Cabela's in St. Louis
May - Wamac, IL & Steeleville, IL & Westmont, IL
June - Mt. Vernon, IL
July - Shannon, IL
August - Cape Girardeau, MO
September - Nashville, IN & Salem, IL
October - Arthur, IL & Carlyle, IL

Of course, kid's baseball schedules will get worked in there somewhere too. If all goes well in the next few weeks, I may be able to add even more to the list!

Carpe 'Que,
Jim

If I can get the time off an am not broke by then, I'll come. Either cooking with Andy or Scott D, or on my own. I've got two contests in Sept that come first, so we'll see if I can get a third in.

 

[HoDeDo]

Same weekend as Hermann. I'm thinking that we will go north this year, if possible.

Some highlights are
Washington
Galscow
Sedalia

Others might include; Chillicothe, Laurie, Jeff City and Pacfic.

Wanted to do the GAB, but leaving for Florida that Sunday. I do not think the wife will put off the trip.

Whataya mean it don't count?...if it costs me money it counts! :lol: AND I want points as well...:twisted:

I haven't done either one. I heard that Chesapeake, VA was a pretty good contest. You also may want to look at Pigs in the Park in Danville, VA that same weekend. Much larger prize pool and pay to 10 places. I talked to the organizers in Martinsburg last September and it sounds like it is a very well run contest. Strong competition too. My partner in crime isn't available that weekend, so if I did either one, I would probably have to go it alone. The only issue with that is the drive back on my own after it's all said and done.
