There will be the traditional meet and greet BBQ Friday afternoon at the James M. Robb Colorado River State Park in Fruita, Colorado.
Saturday morning will give way to a beautiful drive up over the Colorado National Monument, and down the twisty Highway 141 to Gateway, Colorado for lunch and a visit to the Gateway Auto Museum! We will conduct a Show and Shine while we are in Gateway.
Saturday afternoon, we will drive back to Fruita. Dinner will be on your own. If you like, you are more than welcome to bring your food and drink, as well as lawn chairs and hang out at the campsite! We will have our official
Hotel Information:
Thanks to the Wine Festival and Triathlon (busy time of year) we (Val) were able to only set aside a total of 19 rooms. Pretty much the whole valley is booked! It will be at the LaQuinta, which is right next door to the campground (perfect). The Manager at LaQuinta will hold 19 rooms for us until August 18th. If they are not reserved by then, he will open them up so others can reserve them. We did get a discount rate, it is still a bit on the pricey side though .

If tent camping and money saving is your thing, you can go online and reserve a tent space at the James M. Robb Colorado River State Park for $14 a night! Also Val and I have reserved the group camping circle (A-F) that is right next to the tent camping. So if you do need a tent spot or a spot for an RV or Trailer, we have already paid. This area will ensure a spot to have the Meet and Greet BBQ as well as a place to hang out (quiet hours begin at 10pm).
There will also be "unofficial activities" if anyone decides to show up early, just let us know you are going to be early. We will quite possibly have a quick drive over the Grand Mesa! The Grand Mesa offers the most Alaska-like terrain I have ever seen outside of Alaska!
Shirt Order Has Been Placed as of August 1st. Tee Shirt Order Thread Here!
This promises to be a good time, and an excellent chance to check out Colorado's scenery. This late in September, it should be cooling down a bit. The leaves should also be changing, making for some spectacular views!
