Schedule of Events


*NOTE - Current as of January 31, 2010


Once again, this isn't just a one day event. The main event will still be Saturday April 10th, 2010 in Moonshine, IL, but other things will be planned during the 8th - 11th.


Thursday April 8th - Cookout

5 - 10PM is a cookout at Terry's house where you bring nothing. He furnishes it all for free. There will be Brats, BBQ, Pork Loin, Salmon and Shrimp along with side dishes, iced tea, coffee and peanut butter cup ice cream. Can't beat that, can you? biggrin Here is a Map to his house. *Note - The map shows the house number as 490. This is to show the physical location of the house. His house number is actually 410. I could let Terry step in here and explain this, but I'm afraid I don't have enough bandwidth and he may run out of gas telling you the story. biggrin Park out along Main Street as it is a "National Road" and the Casey street lights will really make this look so cool. Sign up/in will begin and and continue until noon on Saturday. If you don't sign up/in, we won't know you showed up.


Friday April 9th - Lunch, Ride and Dinner

10:30 AM, Sharp! We will leave the Comfort Inn parking lot in Casey and ride up to Stovepipe Grill & Smokehouse just off RT 16 East of Charleston to eat this year. Map of the area where it is at. Tim Yow says "This year we'll have Pulled Pork, BBQ'd Beef Brisket, & Rib Tips. All the sides, drinks, and everything else for $11.50 including tax & tip. Afterwards, we will ride a short ride to Effingham to see a Great Corvette Museum and a quick stop on the way to see a private collection of some "old pick-up trucks" at a "old" filling station at a friend's house".


Between 6:00 - 9:00PM, we will once again meet at Richards Farm Restaurant in Casey, IL. This place has great food and is always a great time socializing. We will once again have the almost legendary "Awards Banquet" during the meal. We will shoot for 7:00PM. It is a "Must Make" if at all possible! smile Here is a Map.


Saturday April 10th - Moonburgers!

Starting at 7:00AM, come by the Casey Comfort Inn/Moonshine Headquarters. Everyone come by and sign up/in. If you don't get signed up/in, you are not an official "Moonie"! Sign up/in will end at noon Saturday. Make sure you are on "The List" before it is to late. Here is a Map.


Free coffee and the sweet roll lady will once again be there selling delicious sweet rolls. She will be set up at the Comfort Inn. She donates her time, ingredients and all money taken in goes to the Moonshine Mission Fund. She will only be there from 7:00 - 9:30 AM make sure and get there early as these are GREAT. Make sure you thank her for all she does!


At 8:15 AM, there will be a "Blessing of the bikes" in the Comfort Inn parking lot. Thanks to CMA Chapter #836!


At 8:30 AM, the rough rode riders will take off in search of creek crossings and gravel/dirt roads.


We will start sending groups of people down to Moonshine with "guides" to get us all there starting around 8:35 AM and about every 30 minutes until the last group leaves at 11:30 AM. Remember, Helen will serve food until 12:30 PM or until the line finally dies out, but lets try and get ordered before 12:30 PM SHARP like Moonshine is famous for! If you go straight to the store, here is the Map.


Between 6:00 - 7:30 PM, because of having so many people wanting to eat together, the Firefighters in Casey are going to put together a great Chili Supper. We will probably have a 50/50 drawing too. The supper and drawing go towards a new building for the Fire Department. We can park on Main Street under the very cool Casey street lights and the School/Community Center will be set up for us all. Hopefully, there won't be any calls this year! smile


You can even buy Chili Supper tickets in advance for 6.00 dollars or pay at the door for 7.00 dollars. We will have a list at the door of who has paid. Prepay will end Wed April 7, 2009 at 6:00 PM.


Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!

Sunday April 11th - Breakfast

Between 7:00 - 9:00 AM, I am having another "Cook-out", but this time at the Comfort Inn. How does this sound for a menu? Sausage Patties and Bacon cooked on a grill, Scrambled Eggs, Sausage Gravy. Biscuits which you can have a Sausage patty biscuit, Biscuits and Gravy or just a Biscuit. Any Left Over Sweet Rolls from Saturday, we can heat up and eat. Cost? Free! Ok, we might have a hat to toss a $ or 3 in, but way cheaper than a restaurant. Plus, we get to all be together and have plenty of room to kick tires.


Sunday Church Service 9:00AM - Comfort Inn

We will have a very laid back and very short(10-15 minutes) Church service held by fellow bikers in the conference room at the Comfort Inn.


Times might get tweaked.  Well, this is Moonshine and as far from an organized schedule as possible... LOL!!!
