Wonder if this is the end??? BTW, see the other posts about a BBQ being held here in CT on the 20th.
Really liked going to the NEBRA event, only missed a couple over the years. Brian Lee always went way over the top in putting this on every year. Maybe he is just too busy?

Some old info here. waGoN Temp Site
Yup. (I hope) Actually, yes, but I am planning on chaning the design, but I have two days to put a motor and tranny in the waGoN, and get it loaded up for a trip to Cecil County. I'll try to find the time to work on the design.
so, to answer your question, yes there will be shirts. Email me what you want if you can't make it.

I will give you a hand setting up if you need help.

It starts at 12.
I get there at 11 to set up.
This year, I don't want anyone showing up before 12.
In the past, I have said that people can show up early, as long as they help set up. That is not going to happen this year. Last year a bunch of people showed up early, got the best parking spots, and watched me unload the truck, set up the grill, set up the tables, and get the coolers and everything else ready. By myself. There were a number of people that showed up and jumped out of their cars to help as soon as they showed up, but I had already finished. Again, by myself.
This year, noone is allowed early unless they pay ahead of time, and ok it with me. NOONE!

Hey Jack,
The details are pretty much the same as they have been since the very first BBQ. The link that Mark posted will give you most of the information. The price may be different, and the date is different. THE DATE IS DIFFERENT. Sorry to shout, but sometimes people look at the page from 2003 and wonder how they missed it. I think someone even showed up the wrong day once. I'm hoping to have time to do up a page for this years, but I'm not too optimistic. If you have any questions, ask them either here, on NEBRA.org, or you can email me direct. NEBRA or me directly is probably your best bet. I'll post up details as soon as I have time. For now, I have to finish putting the car back together so that I can be ready to drive to Cecil County on Thursday.

Noon, is when it has always started, so that shouldn't change anything for you.
Hi Jack,
Yes, the details will be almost exactly the same as all other years. I'm wokrking on a bunch of stuff this morning, so I hope to have all of the info together to post later today.
Right now, I am just trying to get all of the emails read and answered that I missed while I was at Cecil County.
NEBRA BBQ 2008 Details
Directions to the BBQ are at the bottom
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are in the planning stages of our 11th Annual Member's Appreciation BBQ.
This BBQ was first set up by Keith Kasprzak in an effort to get everyone together at one place for a relaxed function.
What a great idea! And the turnout? Excellent! The next year, even better. It was at that point that Keith was unable to continue the madness.
So, I took over. After all, with my appetite, they knew I would at least get the food part right.
Well, anyway, below are the details of this years BBQ. If you have any questions that you do not see answered below, feel free to drop me a line.
My email addy should be listed below, unless I forgot to add it.
Somewhere down below will also be a link to one of the previous BBQs. You can also go to the NEBRA web site , and click on events to see pictures of BBQs from other years, and also other events.
The function will be held Rain or Shine. If by some chance Mother Nature rains on our parade, we will still be there. Hop in the Buick and head out anyways. If you don't want to drive your good car in the rain, then hop in the Lexus, Cadillac or whatever you have for a winter beater, and come down anyways. The BBQ is more about the people than it is about the cars. See you there.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If you are coming to the BBQ, and will be sending a check: In the memo area, write in:
A. The number of adults attending
B. The number of children attending
C. What size shirt you want.
If you are sending payment thorough Pay Pal:

Make the checks out to NEBRA
This information is very important. It is the only way that I can even hope to guess the number and sizes of shirts that I need. I also estimate the amount of food that I have to buy. And most imprtantly, it makes sure that I have enough of the kid's bags. Now you don't want to be the person that is responsible for your kid not getting a goody bag are you.
I always have extra stuff, but last year we ran out of the extra shirts, and kiddy bags. I will send the stuff out to you, but then I have to pay to mail it. It is $3 just to mail a shirt, and the Post Office got mad at me last time I tried to mail a cheeseburger to someone. So try to provide this information for me. Thanks..

Location:
Field School
School Street
Weston, MA
Date/Time:
October 12, 2008
Noon-4
Cost:
A ****ping $30(If you pay ahead of time). That's right 30 measley American dollars is all it takes to get you an afternoon of excitement and beautiful sites. No we don't have models showing up, but we do have tons of Buicks for you to look at. In the past we have had over 50! All Buick, now that's something to write home about! Aaaah, memories to last a lifetime.
Important stuff(what you get out of it):
OK the cost covers all of this.
School rental, use of the facilities(school grounds, bathrooms, playground) and the services of one fine Weston custodian to help us slobs stay neat and tidy.
Food, and lots of it. Enough food for you, and anyone you want to bring with you. In the past we have had cheese/ham burgers, hot dogs, marinated chicken, all the fixin's to go with them, salads(garden, potato, macaroni)
One custom, collector's edition, official NEBRA T-shirt in the size of your choosing. (Additional shirts available at no cost to me. You gotta pay though;-)
Free admission to the best show on Earth! A NEBRA car show that is. You can gawk at all of the cars, get a good look at what everyone else has done to their cars to make them unique, and possibly get some ideas. Oh yeah, and your car is automatically entered.
Several chances at a whole bunch of trophies. 6 classes of trophies will be awarded. (I'll list the different classes as soon as I make up some good ones that are catered to my specific car. Just kidding. Actually, I will probably be changing the classes from last year, but can't think right now, so that will have to come later.
Several chances to win BIG! No I'm not talking about the lottery, I'm talking REAL BIG! Many of our members donate items for the giveaways. This is one of the things that makes this such a great event. You could win anything from custom interior pieces to Performance parts, free labor from a Turbo guru, or....whatever. There will also be some special NEBRA clothing items, and more.
Kids! No, we aren't giving kids away, but if you bring kids with you, we want it to be a memorable event for them, too. And no, we don't want them to remember it because it was one of their worst moments growing up. We want them to remember it because they had a good time. Now I am not going to dress up in a clown suit or anything(it's being altered) but we do have the next best thing. What does everyone love, no matter what their age? Free stuff. That's right. Every kid that shows up gets a free goody bag. Now how is that for fun? And if you are good, maybe they'll share with you.
And the best feature of all: You get to hang out, BS, Relax, or whatever. It is a very laid back atmosphere.
Well, that is all I can think of for now, but if I remember anything else, and my head doesn't hurt too much from thinking, then I will add it. If anyone else remembers something that I left out, then drop me a line.

Yup, will be heading up there from North Haven as of Friday evening. Hopefully plans don't change.
