Default March Event Details

.
Arkansas/Oklahoma Tour

Ok folks, here are the details. The primary event date will be Saturday, March 27th with the alternate bad weather date of Saturday, April 3rd. If the weather is rainey, plan on the next Saturday.
I have invited members of the Longview Corvette Club to joint us and Chad is going to invite the Dallas S2000 Club members.
For those leaving from Longview, we will meet at the Ellis Pottery parking lot and leave no later than 7:00 am.
We will meet up at the Broken Bow, Ok. Walmart Store parking lot at 9:00 am.
For those who may be running late, you can catch up at Beavers Bend State Park.
See map and schedule below:
1. Leave the Broken Bow Walmart Store parking lot at 9:00 AM heading north on HWY 259.
2. Turn off of HWY 259 at the entrance of Beavers Bend State Park.
3. Tour park. Approximate time one hour.
4. Resume travel from park on HWY 259 north to the intersection of HWY 259 and HWY 63. Take HWY 63 west to Talihina, Ok. Proceed north from Talihina on HWY 271 to the intersection of HWY 1 which is the beginning of the Talimena Trail.
5. Proceed east on the Talimena Scenic Trail (HWY1) to Queen Wilimena Inn at the end of the route. Stop for visit, view scenery, and eat lunch. Approximately one and one half hours.
6. Proceed from Talimena Inn one HWY 1 to Mena.
7. Part and go our seperate ways home.

I'm interested.

For any rock climbers, there is a Texas Mountaineer club climb near Wilburton, OK the same weekend. I'll likely camp at Robber's Cave State Park both Friday and Saturday nights. Yes, a tent, two sleeping bags, camp pads, pillows, etc. can fit in the S2000 trunk!

Sorry you can't make it Doc. We had hoped you could make the run. If the weather turns bad, maybe the alternate weekend will be better for you.
Take care and we will keep you informed of the next event,
Hal

Looks like the weather is going to be great for the run and it should be a blast! There will be at least one more Viper joining us from Arkansas.
I won't feel so alone
Thought I might add that the April Event will be at Hodges Gardens near Many La. Details to follow the first week in April.
See everyone Saturday
