Hey Jim, you know I'll be there  ;D

more info ~> http://www.pintostampede.com/events/911event.htm (http://www.pintostampede.com/events/911event.htm)

Any Minnesota Pinto owners thinking of going to this Pinto Event? I'm willing to consider plans for traveling together if anybody has interest. Email cookieboystoys @ yahoo . com I'm up north in Hibbing but will be in the twin cities for the labor day weekend and may just stay in the cities for the week vs going home for a couple days before leaving for this event and looking for travel companions.

Jim tells me he'll be at Rock Cut State Park camping all week and I think I'll be joining him on Monday (Labor Day) and stay thru the week and into the weekend.

Last Pinto Hurrah! for me this year and this looks like a fun one.

Cookieboy has arrived and all setup for a week of camping. Met up with Jim and Doreen for dinner last night. This afternoon Jim brought his camping setup. Can't wait for Friday when everybody else arrives for the fun Pinto weekend.

WHAT!!! I'll try to call tomorrow, hope this is resolved by then  :o

The Illinois Stampede was a hugh success! with a lot of hard work from Jim and Doreen Madison (our hosts) the local Ford Dealer donated $1000 to the WWP and Jim's gun raffle raised (if I remember correctly) another $1200 for a total of $2200 for the Wounded Warrior Project! Way To Go Jim and Doreen and all who joined us for the Illinois Stampede!!!!

left the car show today and headed for home... I made it as far a Spooner,WI (or close) saw a camping sign and between yawns (it was an early morning) I setup camp for the night and not gonna make it home till tomorrow  ;)

can't wait to go thru the pics and video for all to see, I'll get stuff posted as soon as I'm able  ;D

The members of the Illinois 911 Stampede would like to thank the Rock River Block Auto Dealers in Rockford, Illinois for supporting the Wounded Warrior Project with their generous donation of $1000 to help our wounded warriors returning from the battlefield.
