I sure will enjoy driving the Raffle bus home.

Yeah, to my home in St. Louis, MO after I win it!

Looking forward to seeing everyone and enjoying this unique event. Bring as much garbage as you like we'll remove all of it!

Hoping to three-peat and get all my vehicles there this year. Iguana is getting a freshened up 28 pci carb to compliment her amazing Jeremiah Polynone interior, Sky King should be sporting new shoes and Lobo Bus will be making her Jerome Debut!

See you there!!!

Is my water boxer welcome? I don't want to mess up people's air cooled chi. But I can prove my VW status by having my van puke coolant all over you. It's like a trained seal. And regale you with tales of my Four Corners road trip where I can't even get out of AZ.

Where can I find more info about participating in the chili cook off? I would like to enter, but I'm not sure about the logistics in my Westy.

Sounds like a lotta fun, but beware my puking coolant. You have been warned.

Looking ahead at the long range weather, the dust may be settled by some moisture 80% on Thursday and 50% on Friday. That will not inhibit me from driving the bus back to my house on Sunday!

Last minute weekend "camp" installations for the bus along with oil change and trans/brake fluid check .. Packing is the fun part,, hitting the road early Friday (4am) along with a couple other Yumans! See you all there and safe travels!

Hey, do the wipers actually work on the ABC "Raffle Bus"? I'm gonna need 'em for the long drive back home to St. Louis... I'm just sayin'!

Thanks for post of all the info. I understand you guys are concerned about space, are side tents ok?

We got 2 buses rolling out Thursday from Durango, Co.

Sat Sep 13, 2014 2:39 pm

Will ice be available at the venue, or do we need to bring enough to last the weekend?

Sat Sep 13, 2014 4:46 pm

Tents are fine and ice is in town at the bar but stock up before camp

Any buses (or vans) rolling in this week are welcome to free camping in my front yard and use of the facilities at my house in the cool pines outside of Prescott.
And if you require more than that I also work @ the local VW shop :)

I am 6mi outside Prescott (Groom Creek), about an hour drive to Jerome from there.
I know of a loose caravan leaving Prescott @ 7-8am Friday morning.

PM if interested.

I'm having my 66 trailered up Saturday. Will there be parking near the site for the tow rig and trailer, or will I have to find a place somewhere else? Thanks for any advice!!
