Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Savage Collectors SAVAGE FEST 2014, Sept 12-13 !!!

I hope everyone on the Savage Collector forum can participate in this event. It will be a good time.
In addition to meeting one another there is plenty to see and do in this area that I call home.
Please consider attending.
I would like to thank Rick99 for working with me and spear heading the effort on the forum.
Any questions or special needs, just ask.

Thanks for hosting a savagefest, Rick!

My GF and I spend 3 or 4 days camping and bicycling in Elroy about an hour NW of you every year. Are there any camping facilities with showers around Sauk City?

Will need four tables. My book is making progress again and I could use lots of photos for it so bring out the good stuff. David

One of my other passions in life is cycling. Camping? Google knows all. Must be something in my neighborhood even if it's my place. We'll talk.

"Any-Body Get a Hold Of John ALLEN?"

Steve'r, good point.

If anyone is in contact with Savage collectors that are not on the computer please talk to them about Savage Fest and post if they are interested and how many table they might want.

I'll Give John a Call Later In the Week, I Know of a Big Collector In N.D. also

Guys, put my name in the hat to be there. The second weekend would be better for me. Being in maintenance I get to work all of the holidays for major repair. No tables, just further education and a chance to meet all.

Yes, the Sept 12-13 date seems to be working best. We will tie the date down before long so we can reserve the building.

Yea, it's always nice to put a face with a name even if most are pretty ugly.

Mark me down as a probably. Better for me that it's not the holiday weekend.
I owe more than one of you guys a beer, so I had better be there!

I think I might still owe you a bottle of rum!

I won't be able to make a commitment until we get a little closer but am planning on going.

Earlier dates would work better for me but Later will work too.

The 5 & 6 would be better. Will be great to meet other members.

Tons. Baraboo is 20 minute north of Sauk City and the Wisconsin Dells are 40 minutes north of Sauk City. There's plenty of campgrounds that would fit your bill.

Can this thread be stickied?

I might like to come take a look at the wares all 'ya all have. Either weekend would work for me. No table, just myself, and maybe my dad.

Thanks Rups63. We have looked a little online around Sauk City. We will definately look at Baraboo and Devil's Lake. I did some scuba diving in Devil's Lake about 28 years ago and Sharon reminded me the other night that we visited Sauk City 3 or 4 years ago when we spent the day sight seeing instead of bicycling in the rain.

The plans are moving forward. It appears that the Sept 12-13 date is the one we are going with. I hope that is not a problem for anyone.

Mark you calendar. More to info to come as available.

Got word from John Allen that he will be coming. Probably four tables.

Will be a great time, as always. Spread the word to others that have a Savage interest but are not on the Forum.

Never been to one of the Savage Fests. Besides the camaraderie,
BS sessions, and viewing the best of the best Savages what else happens? What I mean is, are there Savage rifles, Savage parts, Savage memorabilia, etc. for sale? Thanks

It's a private collector show, most stuff is not for sale but rather display. If two guys work something out between themselves then that's fine.

Start running a commercial operation and you get into licensing/insurance/legal issues.

This BIG time........If some here don't think eyes are watching...............THINK AGAIN.

Calhoun,I'm glad to hear that not EVERYTHING is for sale. The rifles in my display are NOT for sale. I'm coming to meet people and learn more about Savages not for some glorified flea market. David

Calhoun's comments confirmed.

I have the Community Center booked as a private show (no buy & sell) for Sept.12, 13, 14 in Sauk City, WI.

It is a large gym with ample floor space/tables and a side kitchen. Many have already replied regarding attending, number of tables requested and to pitch in in different ways to make this event fun and a success. The more the merrier.
