I've "retired" from helping promote the show but the dates are Sept. 19-20. If you're on the mailing list, flyers will be mailed out in early June (so I'm told). BEST show on the left coast without question!!! Hope to see Ray there if he can fit it into his busy social agenda..........;)

Should we make a list of who's attending here?
Posted By: Hemibird Re: West Coast Gas Bash (STOKES) - Fri Aug 08 2014 12:02 PM
Hey guys,
I say this half in jest but is the show like Iowa where you have to show up on the 16th for a show that starts on the 19th? It's been about 5 years since I've been there and I'm thinking of coming out for it. I hate to arrive on the 19th only to find out the show was over on the 18th. Let me know. thanks folks

Chuck, the show is on the 19th-20th. Some vendors come on the 18th to get their spaces & set up tables etc. We ask that no selling take place on the 18th (sometimes impossible to do......). You would definitely want to be there bright and early on Friday. Hope to see you there, Tom
Posted By: Hemibird Re: West Coast Gas Bash (STOKES) - Sat Aug 09 2014 01:17 PM
Thanks Tom. Hopefully I'll see you guys early on the 19th.
Posted By: Tom Stover Re: West Coast Gas Bash (STOKES) - Sat Aug 09 2014 01:26 PM
We'll be looking for you Chuck!

Professor, for a guy who has NEVER been to this show, you seem to know a lot about it. IF you would show up, I will be your personal tour guide/body guard. etc. Will you make the trek north?
Posted By: Dick Bennett Re: West Coast Gas Bash (STOKES) - Tue Aug 19 2014 05:51 AM
NO
W/ you as a guide, there'd be 2 of us STOVERING ALL OVER THE PLACE. Not sure there'd be room for both of us IN Ted's RV.
Posted By: GILMORE Re: West Coast Gas Bash (STOKES) - Tue Aug 19 2014 07:13 AM
Man up and go, DB. If not for my seismophobia, I'd be there. Maybe someday.
Posted By: Tom Stover Re: West Coast Gas Bash (STOKES) - Thu Aug 21 2014 03:58 AM
I have a room booked quite close to the meet. Fred says he's been getting a lot of vendor entries & he, Kenny & Dick Kinsey handed out flyers at Hot August Nights in Reno & the swap meet at the Arco Arena in Sacramento. 4 weeks 'til lift-off.......
Posted By: Tom Stover Re: West Coast Gas Bash (STOKES) - Tue Aug 26 2014 12:02 AM
Getting closer......... I'll be there a few days early to inspect Lodi corner, sample beverages, check supply of ice, etc.

Besides being a couple of hours away, Ted assured me that NO bed bugs will follow him to Fred's. (Heard he set the place on fire.......)

Is there anyone that might be able to pick up a Mobil Pegasus cookie cutter sign in Goleta CA on there way up to the show in Santa Rosa? It was purchased from fellow collector Ken Northenscold, I live in northern California, It would be a big help. I WILL GLADLY PAY for your services…I understand he lives not far off highway 101….

Please let me know, I can be reached on my cell at 925-872-5192

Thanks much,
David Montalbo
