I would love to see it continue (and grow)
I understand costs are always going up but I think a good turnout will help ensure that the show survives and even thrives in the future

While there, I heard that there is another gathering (a single day?) in June at Bass Lake - a Memorial to Chris Blevins at Miller's Landing
Any chance that event could be combined with this one to make it bigger and better for everyone?
We could have the whole lake - The Pines and Millers - more to do, more to see for spectators?
I didnt have the fortune to meet Chris but I met his folks and lots of his friends and got the impression that he was actually a big part of setting up this Bass Lake show for many years
Any reason why we cant make the whole deal combined a memorial to him with this much advance notice?
Just a thought

Well JT I dont know for sure But I presume there are alot of 'politics' ultimately involved between the land owners mostly, maybe the 'old landowners' of the Pines and yes they stuck their foot in it real big last year and probably lost alot people for good unfortunately! - But Brian may be the best source for that information.... From what I understand tho is Chris and the Miller folks had a very close relationship and it wasnt just about business. Thats why THEY do it.
