First timers make it way more fun - glad to hear of yet another one.

Make sure you hook up with the others for the ride down, and go get an FRS radio and extra batteries - it makes the entire weekend more enjoyable.

Sounds like this is going to be a great Dragon ( as they all are) , we have so many new people it will be really nice to get to know everyone over the weekend.

Is anyone coming from Raleigh NC area or surrounding area that wants to join me on Thursday ? I aim to leave about 6am from Apex NC and stop for breakfast in Hickory on I40 and get to Fontana just after lunchtime.

Need to get the supplies ready for the evenings entertainment with Nick, Shaun, and the gang, JD or Whiskey that is the question.

Not too long to wait now

Andy

I was at the 2010 Dragon and over 80 Crossfires were there, you have a long way to go to beat that one.

Well, you could help by showing up Dave.
Lot's of people that have joined since 2010 would like to put a face with the jibes.
I don't think anyone would really punch you out ...

Carl

Just for anyone who cares to see the attendance history for ALL the Dragon meets
I put this thread together back in April last year


CLICK >>> Spring & Fall Dragon info / Attendance History<<<

You will see in post #9 (Fall 2010) we had 84 total Crossfires
This event has had some good history in numbers for sure and I have attended all but 2 of them

No we're not.


But nobody actually would. Dave is too damn useful around here.


I'm willing to bet if he showed at the Lodge, he would never have to buy a meal or a drink. And at the end of the meet, we would all still owe him.


Thumbs up Dave.
