What a year!
This has been a great
year. At our last meet (November) we had
19 entries and we set 6 new records. This
made 24 new records for our hard chargers.
None of this could have happened without the dedicated efforts of our
members who serve the club and the SCTA.
I would like to take this opportunity to give special thanks to all of
our members who supported the club this year.
The energy required for the Lakes duties to keep a club like ours going
is considerable. So thanks again to all
who lent a hand doing their tasks with interest and determination
2007 Sidewinder’s
Picnic
Who said an old fashion
picnic was boring? Well they sure didn’t
come by ours. With our 25’-0 high suicide-slide, Bonneville Bounce, and our “Widow Maker”
mechanical bucking bull, no one was caught sleeping at ours. Tom Evans and Tom Gerardi survived the Bulls
fury for the full 8 seconds earned their spurs in the Balls versus Bulls
Club. After they got some of the fight
out of the bull, even Phil Frediger in his eighties
gave it a try, then our little sidewinders took turns
in the saddle.
Food, did some one say
food? Our five star chiefs Elaine, Don
& Tom made sure that no one road home hungry. The Chili cook-off, headed by Judge Matt
Pulley had a tough time picking a winner from the great entries. By the time the smoke cleared, Charles
Partello was the winner. I was right in
there sampling the hot stuff (just keeping them honest). I ate so much chili that when I got home I
had to wipe my but with a snow cone.
The prizes were fantastic. All
you guys really came through with the goods.
We had over $3,000.00 worth of door prizes that Dean, Jamie and Shawn
handed out. The “One Million Dollar
Prize” was won by Shane Fruediger. Thanks to everyone who helped make this the
best picnic ever!
