I am not sure if this is the right place ot post this here, so Mods please move where appropriate.
Was wondering if the site has or may think about a yearly competition for site members, best of the best "local" bragging rights as it may.
The reason I am asking is two fold, one to help the group and get an annual meet together and second to see if there is a way to mix cars and BBQ in one event.
The car side is my International Harvester Scout Club, the Sonora Desert Scouts (
www.sonoradesertscouts.com. We have an annual AZIHR (Arizona International Harvester Rendezvous) every year in April, last month we had it in Wickenberg at a great Rodeo Grounds Park and will do the same next year. I was thinking what goes better than good BBQ and Old Cars? nothing, just add beer and it is like heaven...
One thing we did this year is have a caterer come in to do a BBQ dinner. The dinner was good, but thinking it could be way better. What my idea was is to have a competition where the competitors were given award purse in exchange for putting together the dinner together. Maybe not the perfect idea, but I am sure someone here can think of a good solution if we are to move forward.
There is camping onsite for a small group for free and a larger area across the street with hook-ups and such.
The following morning we have a nice run through the desert in the Scouts/IH's, which I am sure any of you adventurers can snag a seat on if you like.
Here is a link to the pics I took of this year's Rendezvous and the run the next day:

Let me know what your thoughts are about something like this.
Thanks.
