For 2023 planning purposes the 2023 Wildflower Rally will again be at The River Inn located near Hunt Texas and the Dates will be Friday March 31- Saturday April 1st 2023.
Subject to changes by the next pandemic or new sub-variant of Covid outbreak or ??? we will plan on providing a COG prepared light dinner on Friday eve; a breakfast sandwich on Saturday morning; and a catered dinner on Saturday evening. Registration and fee collection to be in place later in the year. River Inn will announce our prices later but I'll have them posted here before registration opens.
Some like to show early to relax by the river on Thursday even though the event and food service will not start until Friday March 31st. Each year date selection involves missing Easter, and wedding parties already scheduled at the venue and of course I get complaints if I schedule during the MOTO GP at COTA.
COTA is always late in announcing their official dates so I may get complaints again if they announce a conflicting date. Sorry in advance if it turns out that way.
New* this year will be the Optional Motorcycle/Model T Soccer/Polo Event Saturday afternoon. While most of our COG rooms are below the river Dam, the Model T group that will be roomed above the dam has challenged us to motorized soccer/polo. The event is to be held at the nearby Ingram Warrior Stadium. Motorcyclist participants will have to ride and kick singly, Model T participants will have a Kicker and a driver with driver keeping his or her feet in the vehicle at all times although drivers will be allowed to head butt the ball. Unconscious Model T drivers will not be allowed to be replaced until the next dropped ball or penalty shot conclusion. A $300 extra fee will be collected from polo participants for field turf repair. The model T group has pledged 66% because of their extra wheels. Motorcyclists are encouraged to wear leg iron because of the Model T bumpers.
* I noticed that the box stores were starting their Christmas displays in late August, so I was inspired to start the April fools nonsense early as well. Apologies.
