Yes, we are going to have a
fourth Power Wagon Rally in
This year we are going to
have the rally in July. We realize everyone is very busy with their own
activities, but hopefully July 25-27 is a quiet time with vacations already
celebrated and before school starts.
Here is a photo of the rally
location, plenty of room as you can see: Rally Location
Also, we are going to have a
raffle and are seeking donations of pw related items to offer as prizes.
The proceeds from the raffle are going to support dodgepowerwagon.com. If
you would like to donate a prize and are not attending the rally, please mail
it to:
My home address is:
10 Silkey Heights
North Granby, CT 06060
Or you can simply bring it
along with you.
Here is a map of the
surrounding area with the routes to the rally highlighted in red: Local Map of
Cavendish. And here are some written directions to help out with
the map: Directions. Here’s a general idea of where
For those of you who looking
into a place to stay, here is a list of Accommodations
Camping is available in the
surrounding pastures, the real kind, not KOA, no RV hookups, but room to park.
We’ll be serving food Friday
night, Saturday morning early breakfast, midmorning bagels etc., lunch, dinner,
and Sunday morning pancakes. We haven’t figured out the costs for meals
yet, but you will be able to participate on a per meal basis, or you can obtain
an event long meal pass.
Also, we’ll have a large
metal container that holds large volumes of a traditionally brewed hops and
barley type beverage if you would like to try some of that.
Saturday afternoon, we’ll
load up and go for a ride. The route will consist of rural gravel roads
that are maintained, and some unimproved town and state forest roads that are
not maintained but are well traveled. But that means there are plenty of
rock ledges, washouts, stream crossings, loose boulders, and at least one
serious water hole (with a bypass). Last year plenty of new stock trucks
made the trip, so if your vintage Dodge is not running that day, bring your
wife’s truck.
If you’re not bringing a
truck, no problem, you can jump in any other truck, or just stay at the rally
and relax.
Feel free to bring any parts
or whole trucks you may want to sell, swap, or give away.
We’ll have a tshirt
available with the rally logo, pocket size on the left front. Also there
will be original Dodge art on the back.
If anyone has any questions,
comments, or suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact me at kensee1@cox.net or
The rallies that we’ve had
in the past were great times, the location was perfect, and the people were
even better. This year should be more of the same, so if you enjoy
vintage trucks and vintage people, please make an effort to join us.
Thanks,
Ken
