It appears that there will be no Savage Fest in 2011... BUT, I have had word that there are plans in the making to have another in Northern Wisconsin, 2012. August or September sometime but more on that as things shake out. Whatever the date, I plan to be there! Rory, are you ready for another road trip?

Either of those dates should be great for me as well.
I know it's a very, very long drive for the folks from the northeast and west coasts, but hopefully some will be able to make it.

At 4 bucks a gallon, a drive like that for me in upstate N.Y. is a bit of a stretch. Probably won't make it, but for those that do...enjoy.
Gas alone would be about $400, plus motel, & meals ...for that, I could buy a really nice 99.

You could solve that distance gas cost problem easily. Just host the Fest. Then you wouldn't have to drive a foot.

There is a really good chance that these dates would work for me. The advanced notice is also great. We can apply to bring the rifles to the show, we might need to organize some type of official club / association. I did talk in the past with customs and if I am a member of an association holding an event it is a lot easier to get the paper work to bring stuff. Make it a savage club with some minimal due (say $5) and register the club and we would be good to go. With this much notice I can get all of the particulars and maybe I could bring a rifle or two.
As for $4 a gallon gas I only wish. We are paying $1.32 per litre which translates to $5.28 per gallon. Sad thing is things are really tight in a lot of industries and the markets where most of us are holding a fair chunk of our future retirements in is not looking great. But who knows what the future holds. Everything could be booming by this time next year!

Oh yeah! I am NOT an undesireable in the Provinces! I actually like it there. Most of my people came from Quebec...the French and the Irish!
