Let's see -- the USFRA website says everything looks good, and Jim/Texican called to say he's got some food to donate for Salt Talks, and that sounds good, too. So I guess I'll just make a post to refresh a few points about WoS 2012.
Salt Talks/WoS will be held at the site of the new Bonneville Museum at the east end of Wendover this Saturday evening starting around 5.30 or 6 or so. It'll be the usual land speed racer gathering, including food and drink - and some gifts and raffle items, a cash money draw, and at least a few items of special interest that will be auctioned off - not just given out. The donors have requested that we do it that way to make sure that landracing.com gets the best possible amount of funds -- and since Salt Talks is the big fundraiser for the site -- we're bound to do what we can. One item that we will auction, for instance, is a mounted photo by Pork Pie. He'll be there to tell us about it - so you know what it is you're bidding on buying. Trust me on this one, folks -- it'll be something that will be in very plain sight on the wall of your home or shop - it's a beauty. Glen Barrett donated a brand new set of Moon discs - four of 'em, still in the Mooneyes wrapper. I think we'll auction them, too.
Salt Talks 2012 t-shirts are for sale at the event, and we've got other stuff that's been donated - even an iPod from Wheelrdealer, way down in Florida.
I'll quit soon, but invite you to get in touch with me if you've got stuff you'd like to donate - team shirts and other stuff, too. We all wil appreciate it very much. Oh, yeah -- if you want to supply some food, be it Wa's beans or Texican's Polish Sausage or watermelon - let me know, hey? Thanks. See you in a couple of days.
