My Last (planned) Pinto event of the year... it's looking to be the best yet!

Floodwood, MN September 14th - 16th for the
19th Annual Floodwood Fall Color Festival and Car Show

Car Show is Saturday from 8am to 2pm + there are other activities planned that day

There is a campground in town

and hotel
http://www.merchantcircle.com/business/Stardust.Motel.218-476-2340

I mention the campground and hotel because... It looks like some friends of the Pinto are interested in a road trip up my way. Couple Stampeders may be making the trip with their Pinto's and campers. One local has signed on to help me bring some of mine and at this stage of the planning it looks like Camping (or hotel) will start Friday night thru the weekend. I have 2 campers, conversion van with bed and a tent available if there is a need.

I created a Facebook Event that is viewable by the general public, Facebook account not required to view updates

Hey Cookieboy, I plan on going up to our cabin this weekend and take in the Crosby heritage days car show. You have any plans?

Cookieboystoys · « **Reply #32 on:** August 14, 2012, 12:03:15 PM »

what car you bringing? I will consider it, about a 2 hr drive for me and I could drive down that morning, head home after... have something I was considering going to on Sunday so I can't stay... I'll think on it and let you know.

DBSS1234 · « **Reply #33 on:** August 14, 2012, 01:17:34 PM »

Yep, that's the one. Either the 65 convertible or the 77 Cobra II, I haven't decided yet.

Cookieboystoys · « **Reply #34 on:** August 14, 2012, 01:22:26 PM »

if I have a vote = MII

is it at the Cuyuna Range Youth Center? or where is the location for the show?

DBSS1234 · « **Reply #35 on:** August 14, 2012, 03:08:54 PM »

At the park in Crosby. If you are going, the Mustang II it is. Let me know.

Cookieboystoys · « **Reply #36 on:** August 14, 2012, 03:34:38 PM »

start shining that MII... I'm thinking I will meet you there unless something comes up, the red 73 with the hot pants kit hasn't been on a road trip this year

DBSS1234 · « **Reply #37 on:** August 14, 2012, 04:21:24 PM »

OK, see you there. If there are any other Mustang II's (highly unlikely) mine is white with green striping.

Cookieboystoys · « **Reply #38 on:** August 17, 2012, 07:49:51 AM »

looks like the weather will be good, very small chance of rain and the Hot Pants Pinto get's to take a road trip

Cookieboystoys · « **Reply #39 on:** August 18, 2012, 08:23:30 PM »

Dale and I had a great time and weather was good until the last 30 miles home I hit some rain. Nice little show, maybe 75 cars? and I would do that road trip again. Thanks for inviting me Dale

Cookieboystoys · « **Reply #40 on:** August 18, 2012, 08:25:12 PM »

Also... one other Pinto showed up and I got to meet and talk with Randy for a bit about his 1974 Pro Street

Northern Stampede Roundup in Floodwood, MN

Come Join The Fun! at the Northern Stampede Roundup in Floodwood, MN. Camping on Friday and Saturday nights, September 14th and 15th plus there is also a local hotel available for those that do not want to "rough-it." There are several Pintos and owners planning on the trip up for this one, some from as far away as Illinois.

Don, The organizer for the Car Show and I are working together to setup a display and some fund raising opportunities for the Wounded Warrior Project at the event. A 50/50 raffel has been discused and my "water for warriors" booth may see it's final display for the year. Maybe instead of "water for warriors" I'm thinking Hot Coco and Cookies! last year is was a little on the chilly side.

Email Brian Campbell at cookieboystoys at yahoo.com if you want to join us or be involved. I welcome anybody (Pinto not required) that would like to join us.

Car Show on Saturday from 8AM to 2pm.
Registration for the Car Show from 8AM to Noon, cost is $7.00

If I didn't have so much to prepare before everybody arrives I might have considered the trip south to join you for the drive up... I still may, depends on what all happens as we get closer to the day... I'll send updates to Pintony, maybe he can come up early, be at Jim's on Wednesday? Wayne Layman is also considering but may have a "thing" that would keep him from considering

flash041 · « **Reply #44 on:** August 21, 2012, 10:33:05 PM »

We wont leave Madison till at least 3pm. Should be in LaCrosse by 6 then travel north to camping on the river hopefully setting up before dark.

perfect timing for La Crosse, WI - Doug said he could meet you at Rudy's Drive-in ( http://www.rudysdrivein.com/ ) and maybe get some of his group together to meet you all.

There are two state parks on the Wisconsin side I was thinking of going to Merrick or Perrot. It may work meeting at the drive-in, but am afraid we will run out of daylight to set up camp. If Doug and others are coming they could meet us at the campsite.Just throwing ideas out there.

Cookieboystoys · « **Reply #47 on:** August 22, 2012, 02:30:54 PM »

I sent you, Jim and Doug and email with some ideas...
