It's almost that time again. Two months from today. June 7th 2015, will be the biggest West Coast gathering of Turbo Buicks. This event is free to get in. Everyone who drives a Turbo Buick or Turbo Buick powered vehicle will receive a free event T-shirt.
Where.
Bates Nut Farm
15954 Woods Valley Rd.
Valley Center, CA. 92082

People can start cruising in after 9:00 AM. Raffle will begin right after lunch. Most people will start heading out 2:00-4:00 PM.
So far, we've been growing this event each year. It is our goal to get as many Turbo Buicks together in one place as we can. It is also our goal to NOT make a dime on this event. This has proven to not be as easy as it sounds. Two years ago, we ended up with an extra 800 dollars. Last year, in an attempt to use this money up, we did some very cool and high quality T-shirts and a web site. All these hard costs got us within twenty bucks of the money taken in by the raffle. That was perfect. The thing is, we've still got the extra money from the 2013 event.
I guess that this year, we may need to step it up a bit.
So far, the vendors that fund this legendary raffle, have been committing, to make this the best year yet.
Mick Micale and crew, will once again be coming out from AZ to help with the event.
The art work for this years T-shirt is almost done.
Time for the farm animals to start getting nervous.
Website vendors will get updated in the next few days.
