Maybe in 2019 we can bring it back to the West Coast. John Elder is retired, now, and he told me he has time to set it up! :lol:

(Note: For the Record, Bechtold is a hoser! :x ...Admin Elder)

Great choice. Beautiful and historic Harpers Ferry, WV is in the state’s Eastern Panhandle, only 63 miles from Washington, DC. If you are planning to come from across the country, schedule some time to visit our nation’s capital or to travel about 160 miles and fish and crab the incredible Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. Harper’s Ferry is near several major Civil War battlefields for any history buffs.

Harper’s Ferry is famous for the 1859 raid of the US arsenal by John Brown, the great slavery abolitionist, who was caught and hanged. Brown hoped to start a slave revolt. A young Col.Robert E. Lee was in charge of defending the arsenal.

I live in the state’s other, northern Panhandle (near Pittsburgh) but hope to attend.

But the real question is will Mr. Mike Nogay be attending this event? How about it Mike.
