We can HELP by giving Vic INPUT & IDEA'S Vic if you are considering early March I would like to see the 1st weekend in March / Our full time job starts Mid March and we hope it starts with a BIG BANG / This year this year it started with a PPPPPPPPPPPPPP ( put your lips together and blow air out and you will pronounce it correctly) For those that have never attended it is a very layed back setting with some realy nice people.

Re: 2014 " Barner's Bash "
Hi Bill, We'd like to host another Florida "Barner's Bash" in 2014 however, last year we were unable to secure the support from (we'll call them "sponsors") that we've enjoyed in previous events. We did have participation from a lot of Florida Barner's that helped make the 2013 Bash an enjoyable event. It does take a lot of pre-planning to stage an event, (more then posting "promos"), and it is also difficult to schedule the event to meet everyone’s time frame. In previous events we've taken part in the Billetproof show at Don Garlits Museum, taken a tour of the National Parts Depot automobile collection, toured the Edison, Ford estates in Ft. Myers, been treated to excellent BBQ by Mr. Moose in St. Pete and Tom M. in Ft Myers. We've also enjoyed the fixin's of John (oldford2) and his wife Barb at Fred Howard Park on the Gulf of Mexico in Tarpon Springs. You, (Bill) have been a staunch supporter of the event with the creation of the "Miss Shelly Award", etc.
The event has become somewhat of a tradition, and we’ve enjoyed the participation of a bunch of Barner’s over the years, but I’m not sure that the interest and/or willingness to participate on the part of attendees and sponsors (to provide raffle prizes, etc.) still exist. I’m game to do what’s necessary to hold another Florida “Barner’s Bash” in 2014, as long as I know we’ll get a modicum of support from Barner’s and those that support the hobby providing parts and/or services. For those reading this, if you fit either criteria mentioned above and would like to lend your support, please let me know. I hope we can continue the tradition. Vic

Bill,
Kathie and I enjoyed the picnic at Fred Howard Park the most. I'm sure most guys would help kick in towards the rental of the pavilion and the food. Cut back on the sponsors, we'll just have a get together of ol' Barners and their better halves. After all the miles traveled by everyone this last year, there will LOTS of stories. Chuck S. |

Nice offer from you And Barb , & excelent Idea about Jeff posting some Pictures of the earlier get togethers. What is nice about that spot is that there is pavilion so if there is a passing shower we can all get a little closer in knowing each other under cover of the pavilion. If we can get a few new people to post some Ideas We can make this the best one yet. |

Re: 2014 " Barner's Bash "
Here's a batch from JM's camera, I think it's March 17th 2012, and we're at the Don Garlits Museum and BilletProof show. The picnic from the earlier post would have been the 18th and those came from my camera.
I sure did have a great time that weekend. It was my first Barner's Bash experience and I was able to meet some great people face to face. -VT/JeffH |

Re: 2014 " Barner's Bash "
And here are a few taken by Vic Piano just as we arrived at BilletProof. The light is great in these shots. Again I hope Vic doesn't mind me sharing these.

Vic I hope you mean the cars and not the Native American tribe ?.....we wouldn't want to see you banned (or coming back with an arrow through your head) for putting that advertisement up like that.

Re: 2014 " Barner's Bash "
Like to attend the Big Swap Meet at Daytona, is this later in the month of March? I know it was mentioned last year. Now I need to change the rear end in the 34, heard that tours were in the 60 MPH range, thanks for the work it takes to make this happen,
