Only thing we will need is somebody that is going by Memphis to pick up the Ribs (right off the cooker) on Wednesday.

Anyone going that way?

Ribs plus burger and dogs, or just ribs?

Re: Ribs at JVD's
 

Ribs or burgers or dogs. If you want Ribs, we have to order them and make sure we have enough.

Re: Ribs at JVD's
 

I want to thank all of you who have either contributed or are in the process of doing so. I'd like to make this a super nice event so if & when you can, it is much appreciated. Some thoughts:

We will have veggie burgers available. Please let us know if you prefer them.
We will also be offering our famous BOWTIE BURGERS. These are about 1 pounders!
Smoked Pork, Ribs, chicken, potatoes, etc.etc.

I'm checking into having some very unique ZR-1 LT5 related items made for the event.

We will be awarding trophies for the most Corvette dressed. You figure it out.

Re: Ribs at JVD's
 

Oh, more stuff:

This year we will have music, chairs and tables and we expect each of you to being your better halves. Wives and girlfriends are welcome! You can even bring BOTH of them if you want.

Music arrangements depend on our budget!

Re: Ribs at JVD's
 

Thanks guys, you have contributed $400 so far into the kiddie with ZR1 WON being #1. A good party will go about $2,000 depending on the music.

Were any of you at Stillwater in '93? See those beautiful table decorations made out of LT5 parts? Guess what I'm working on......:wink:

Re: Ribs at JVD's
 

This 20th anniversary event is not to be missed.

Re: Ribs at JVD's
 

Ok guy's were going to get everything together for a great time at JVD's on Thursday. Jim is showing us some awesome southern hospitality , there will be good eat's as well as good times. That's what it's about.Hit Jim's Pay -Pal address (vandornjim@aol.com) with some bucks so we can make the 20th one to remember.

Re: Ribs at JVD's
 

Good food, great friends and our 20th Anniversary!!!!

Hoping it is one of our best years @ BG!


:thumbsup:

Re: Ribs at JVD's
 

Hey Jim, Will you POST a picture of that WORLD FAMOUS BOWTIE BURGER. I tried to buy one of the cutters like you all use and only got a contender; even the cookies it makes are whimps... Nothing like the monster champion your design and manufacturing helpers made for yours.
I am hungry for the real thing :cry:

Re: Ribs at JVD's
 

Where is his Pay Pal?
How much?

Here ia a copy of Jim's post , read my comment at the end.

Re: The BBQ on Thursday Nite, May 13th.
Thanks for your email responses gang, it's going crazy. It's a little bit early to be counting heads right now but we'll need to get a count as we get closer. Sounds like a heck of a turnout already. I wanted to add something. Several of you have offered to contribute to the cause. Well, we'll run up a bill with a band or DJ, some good food and a couple of kegs for the weeknd, decorations, video projector, etc, etc. So, IF you would like to contribute, you can mail a check or use my PayPal account (vandornjim@aol.com). If you use PayPal, look for the reason of sending money and there will be a tab marked "personal". Using this will avoid the usual fees they take out.

I will keep a list of contributions and contributors and make sure you all are rewarded for your efforts. I've found several large boxes with various Corvette, Pirate and ZR-1 T-shirts which might be perfect for you all. Also, any leftover funds will be used to buy a brick, etc, donation to the NCM so don't be shy. And let me add this. Anyone who contributes $50 or more will receive a brand new Legend Lives 18 page full color brochure from April 1995. It is packed with color pictures and advertisers, and many notable people from the ZR-1 community, many of whom are no longer with us. This would make one heck of a nice autograph book for this event after some 15 years ago it was printed. I have sold these on EBay for over $100 EACH. I have a very limited supply but will offer them in appreciation and in order to help make this event a terrific and memorable success. While they last!

Of course you all know that I like to make our events something to remember so rest assured there will be a little package given out to each of you regardless of any contributions. I would like to ask each of you to once again send me photos of your cars so I can do a commemorative DVD. Photos should be of a ZR-1/Grand Sport, no people, in scenic or historical landmark themes. Military/Armed Forces pics work really well. I'll need 30-40 so dig deep.

Of course we don't want to interfere with any other plans, i.e., the NCM or Registry agendas. These thoughts are just for Thursday nite's little get together here at Auto Masters. It seems there is another BBQ scheduled for Friday so let me say that we'll look to set the menu different than the usual. And remember. A very special award goes to the most ZR-1 and Grand Sport dressed/equipped. I'd say we better have a Mr & Ms of each!!

Thanks in advance!!
Jvd & the Mutt
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Basicly 25.00 a head should do it. Just do what you can , naturally contribute more if you would like.:cheers:
