Pontiac Uprising!!! Sept 29, 30th Ark City, Kansas!!!
Ark City Kansas is again the site of the Pontiac Uprising!!!.
The last few years it's been held in Great Bend, KS. I REALLY enjoyed Grrat Bend!!!! That facility and the volunteers are awesome!!! It's a 5 hour drive for me. Ark City is much closer, thankfully. Ark City was fairly well attended, but it's been quite a while since this event was held there. Hope many can make it, next weekend. I plan to be there... Maybe. My Dad's brother passed, I may attend a memorial, IF my Dad decides to go, IF...

My brother and I hope too be down there from Nebraska. Never been to that track before, 5 hrs or so for us. Seems like there are quite a few Pontiacs down in that Wichita area, hopefully they have a nice turn out.

If any of you all run across a 64 year old guy wearing overalls, and a white pole shirt, it'll be me!!!
Jeff Bolton I'm still waiting on a word from my Dad. His brother's memorial service is the 30th, also, in Kansas City...my Dad's 92 years old, and reasonably healthy. I do things with him, whenever he requests, he's not getting any younger.

I made it, although late, around 2:30...
Got to visit with Jay S., Rick Little (he has the greenish 65 full size wagon, he is Jim Hand's nephew). Murf, I looked around for you, around 3:00, when they started racing, again... I was only there for about an hour, but it was worth it!!! Thanks to all that came!!!

There were likely others I missed. I did sop and chat with Tom Wilhite a bit, that's always a pleasure. I drove my TA to this event, likely in t h e 90's, looking forward to doing that, hopefully soon. My physical well being is still improving, every day. I have been working since February. I'm very thankful to be doing that!!! I hope the track electronics doesn't dampen folks' spirit from coming next year!!!
