Schedule of
Events
*NOTE
- Updated March 13, 2008
Once again, this isn't just a one day event.
The main event will still be Saturday April 12th,
2008, but other things will be planned during the
10th - 13th.
Thursday April 10th - Cookout
5 - 10PM is a
cookout at Terry's house where you bring nothing. He furnishes
it all. He furnish it all
for free. There will be Brats, BBQ and Pork Loin along with
side dishes, iced tea, coffee and dessert. Can't beat that, can you?
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.
Park out along Main Street as it is the "National Road" and the
Casey street lights will really make this look so cool. Sign
in will begin and and continue until noon on Saturday. If you
don't sign in, we won't know you showed up. Long distance
rider awards will be presented to the ones who make this event at
Terry's house between 7:30-8:00PM.
Friday April 11th - Lunch, Ride and
Dinner
Noon, Sharp! We will leave the Comfort Inn parking lot
in Casey and ride up to the Coles County Airport between Mattoon and
Charleston to eat a "Elephant Ear Sandwich". Trust me,
you will talk about this for a long time as pilots fly into here
from everywhere just to eat there. Tim Yow has taken charge of
this and will lead us on a scenic way home with some interesting
sights on the way. Well, worth attending! We will be
stopping off on the way up at a New/Unique/Old place that just
opened. The Oilfield Store is open and we will stop in briefly
on our way to eat the Elephant Ears.
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 have an "Awards Banquet" during
the Richards Farm meal. We will shoot for 7:00PM. We
will highlight the Iron Butt Association Members, past Iron Butt
Rally riders, those who rode over 1,000 miles round trip, 1,000
miles 1 way and 2,000 miles 1 way to Moonshine. Everyone will
get a chance to show how far they rode and we will end with the
Longest Distant Riders of all. It
is a "Must Make" if at all possible!
Here is a
Map.
Saturday April 12th - Moonburgers!
Starting at 7:00AM, come by the Casey Comfort Inn/Moonshine Headquarters. Everyone
come by and sign in for the door prizes to be given away.
If you don't get signed in, you are not an official "Moonie"!
Sign up 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 - 9:30AM
make sure and get there early as these are GREAT. Make
sure you thank her for all she does!
At 8:30AM, there will be a "Blessing of the bikes" in the
Comfort Inn parking lot. Thanks to CMA Chapter #836!
Between 8 am - 10 am,
We will have a "Long Distant Motorcycle Show".
At least, we will
showcase bikes that you just do not see everyday. All will
be chosen by a very elite panel that will showcase
Long Distant bikes and their riders. It will be at the
Comfort Inn and we will have 20 or so bikes that will show
the clever ways Long Distant Riders make their bikes able to
ride such great distances. Also, this will be a GREAT opportunity to
chat with some of the "Unique" riders that can span the
country in days and keep going for weeks on end. This will
be great and we all can learn a trick or 3.
We will start sending groups of people down to Moonshine with 'guides' to get us all there
starting around 8:30AM and about every 30 minutes until the last
group leaves at 11:45 AM.
If you go straight to the store, here is the
Map.
At 12:30 - 12:45, We
will once again have an "Awards Banquet" at Moonshine.
Remember, Helen will serve food until 12:30 pm or until the
line finally dies out, but lets try and get ordered before
12:30PM SHARP like Moonshine is famous for!
Between 6:00 - 8:00PM,
because of having so many people wanting to eat
together, the Firefighters in Casey are going to put
together a great meal for a great cause. We didn't
have a place to all go and eat Saturday night and most
wanted to stay local so they can visit. 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.
Here is the update straight from the Fire Chief in Casey,
Jason Garver:
Everything is a go for Saturday night the 12th of April. We will be serving Blueberry/Cranberry Salad, Roast Turkey Breast, Roasted Pork Loin, Buttered Sweet Corn, Home-Style Green Beans, Homemade Chicken and Noodles, Real Mashed Potatoes and Gravy, Chocolate Texas Sheet Cake, Plain white dinner rolls, Tea and Lemonade.
The cost to eat will be $12.00 per person with money going towards the Casey Fire Department’s building fund. We will probably have a 50/50 drawing too.
*NOTE
- If you registered before March 15, 2008, please email
HERE if you plan on attending and have a POP
email program. If you have a webmail service,
you can email
satdinner@moonshine-run.com and put 'Saturday
Night Dinner' in the subject. This way we
can add you to "The List". This could be a
really cool deal. No matter where you are
staying. Terry 109% assures you that you will
want to be at this as it will be a good time, in a
good spot with tons of cool bikes parked on the
"National Road" under the cool Casey street
lights along with great food for a great cause.
Next year, I will have this on the registration
form.
Sunday April 13th - Breakfast
Between
7:00 - 9:00AM, 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 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 a professional schedule
as possible... LOL!!!
