Not sure if everyone is aware, but my birthday falls very close to my picnic every year (as does Alan Wander's). So this year my picnic will also serve as my 50th birthday party. I have a blues band scheduled to play. Keg o' beer. Lot's of food. Scheduled for May 8th! It has historically been on the Saturday before Mother's day because GSCA Nats and Norwalk usually fall the week before and the week after, but this year they are back to back after Mother's day. So mark your calendars! Looks like it could be the first outing for our cars this year! I'm pretty sure Ken Lisk's GSX will be there. And my Riv with the new motor will be burning up the driveway (as usual).

Re: Yardley's Annual Picnic and 50th Birthday Bash! I don't hang around with old farts, so I won't be there. :moonu: Actually, sounds like fun to me! A blues band sounds great!
Re: Yardley's Annual Picnic and 50th Birthday Bash! And so the countdown begins....only 18 weeks away! Looking foreward to it!:beers2: May I ask who the band is?
Re: Yardley's Annual Picnic and 50th Birthday Bash! Nick Serwo's main bodyman is in a band, and they've offered to play. I never asked what their name is.
Re: Yardley's Annual Picnic and 50th Birthday Bash! Maybe you could get that guy Mooney to bring a few of his buddies along to perform. Doesn't he hang out with Billy Joel and Dee Snyder?
Re: Yardley's Annual Picnic and 50th Birthday Bash! Marked it on the calendar..the last few years have not worked for me, but I have a good feeling for 2010!!! Later,Tony.

Re: Yardley's Annual Picnic and 50th Birthday Bash! That video is hilarious:laugh: I never get tired of watching it..
Re: Yardley's Annual Picnic and 50th Birthday Bash! Hey Smarty... all it will cost you is a couple hundy for airfare. I'll shuttle you from and to the airport and lodging and food are free. Sooooooo worth it! Think about it.
Re: Yardley's Annual Picnic and 50th Birthday Bash! Oh, and Ken's restored GSX will make its maiden voyage to the picnic.
Re: Yardley's Annual Picnic and 50th Birthday Bash! I'll consider it, but that is a HOOOOORRIBLE time of year for me to skate out for the weekend. That's one of the reasons I've never been to anything aside from the dead days of Summer events. I get slammed at work in the Spring and Fall. Winter just sucks in general....I save that for my worthless 2-day Vegas trips and irrigation product manufacturer tours and trade shows
Re: Yardley's Annual Picnic and 50th Birthday Bash! Hey Yardley, If you could Pm me your address, I have some locally produced items I'd like to ship your way before the party. You can enjoy some of my favorites with the rest of the crew.:beer From the pics it look like you have quite a favorable turnout!
