BerettaFest West
Posted: Thu Mar 15, 2012 12:02 pm
EDIT: Updated with tentative schedule!!!
For those of us who cannot make it to BFest in MI this year, most of which are on the opposite side of the country, I would like to host BerettaFest West in Las Vegas, NV August 24-26. All are welcome to attend as this in no way is meant to replace nor compete with the national event but to simply supplement and provide an opportunity, again, for those of us that, for one reason or another, cannot make it to Michigan. I have created an event page at http://www.facebook.com/#!/events/40943 ... l_activity. I have invited all those in my friends that I consider my Beretta 'family'...if i happened to not invite you, please do not take it personal!!! PM me your info if you'd like to attend and i will provide you with my contact info. As you all know, hotels are everywhere in Vegas and there are some great off-strip hotels that offer fantastic rates and i will be contacting the one that i am thinking of (Eastside Cannery Hotel http://www.eastsidecannery.com) to see what i can do to accomodate us. Specific to-dos have yet to be buttoned up but i have a few ideas (getting onto the Las Vegas Motor Speedway for at least a group shot) that i want to explore to make this event one that won't soon be forgotten.
And i promise...no roofies in the jager shots!!!
SCHEDULE: (still yet to be confirmed)
Friday, August 24
Arrival day for most i am assuming...BBQ and pool fun at my house!!!
Saturday, August 25
Hoover Dam cruise during the early part of the day, group photo in one of the parking lots
TBD: Speedway fun which i am going to try and make happen. At the very least, a group photo on the start/finish line and maybe some paced laps.
Night Strip cruise/Strip shenanigans
Sunday, August 26
TBD depending on how many stick around and how long.
This is just a handful of ideas...ideas from you are welcome!!!
