Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Savage Collectors SavageFest 2020 Update. Need input

Jerry, Joe and Joe and I can pick you up on our way through. You can bunk with one of us, and we'll keep you fed and "watered". Please consider!

Same here

As with savage folklore, never say never. I greatly appreciate the support, and will evaluate my situation as developments unfold. I would love to make it to the U.P cause being a Michigander, I love the Upper after being there many, many times. Being with a bunch of Savage nuts makes it all more special. Thanks to all who responded in kindness. I sincerely hope something happens that will enable me to make the pilgrimage to the holy land.

I love the "keep me watered " sentiment. That is the upmost stimuli to motivate me to think positive.

You guys are great!

Love the teamwork.

Is this open to anyone on the forum?

It's pretty much forum only event. We "try" to do one "East Coast" one year, and "West Coast" the next. Gets a little hard on the guys in the middle. Not open to the general public. Since Jeff is the man with the plan this year, he may have some house rules, but they will get hammered out way in advance.

In short.. yes, open to forum members who “pre-register”. There’s always a sign up sheet ahead of time. Usually walkins aren’t allowed because most of us don’t want to sit and protect our tables from theft by anonymous folks who walk in.

Bump

Last summers get together in Pa I was told it was ok to bring my buddy, who was originally from Oregon but recently moved to Pa to work for Morphy auctions. He's an FFL. He didn't end up being able to make it but he was welcome. I can see complete strangers and the general public not being allowed!

Fireball, yes.. that's how it's been in the past as long as those folks were added beforehand. Thanks for expanding on that.. Guests/family members of forum members have been allowed before.

I think last time the Fest was even opened up to the FaceBook group, but that was before that group grew to 3000 people or whatever it is now.

Host will have to decide some of these things.

It is less than $200 to fly from Detroit Metro to Escanaba with Delta Airlines. It’s less than an hour flight too. Beats the hell out of 7.5 hours of driving.


Yes, but you won't be able to take all your Savage Rifles!

Hello all:

A question of range time came up. The answer is yes, there is a range that has 25, 50 and 100 yard targets. Also, an indoor pistol range.

More info to follow soon. Keep the questions/suggestions coming.

This event is not open to the public. It will be only for people who register beforehand.

All the best,
Jeff

Thanks guys. I was mainly checking to make sure it was okay if I came Still on the fence about making the drive solo, but I'm sure it's about as close to me as one is going to be so I'll probably suck it up and go. I'll definitely RSVP or sign up when the time comes if I do indeed decided to go.

You won't regret it damnesia! Can't say that for most things nowadays!

I did shoot a bear this fall with .303 Savage and the bear brats are in freezer. They will make trip to 2020 Fest along with some smoked lake trout from Lake Superior. Its not all about guns! But its mostly about Savages... And I found way to get into safe that had Savage 22's that didn't make trip to 2018 Fest. They'll make trip across U.P., too.

I would like to try and make it.

Things are kind of tough around the homestead since my wife's stroke a year ago November, but she is urging me to go, and thinks our granddaughter can stay with her a few days. If I come, I'll try to drag Merle with me (so there is at least one person who can use a 36 belt). May have some 99's to dispose of, as Old Man Time is knocking on my door pretty hard.

Im also thinking of trying to make this one! hard to make plans, right now!

John I might be able to pick you up on the way if that will help

Be nice to split the cost of gas ect. and have one to talk with!
