"We are excited to announce that the 8th Annual Military Vehicle & Gun Collectors Show will be returning to Denton...
A big shoutout to Guy for providing goodies that we gave away to folks who attended and that we used for prizes after the Saturday night supper, especially for the stove that was presented to Steve and Laura.

I've been collecting photos that have been posted by folks who attended from various places on the internet and have combined them into a collection on Flickr...linked to the event's webpage.

You still have time to register in advance for the Graves Mountain Trailrides and Rally held in Virginia over Labor Day Weekend (September 3-7, 2020) Not only do we have plenty of room for everyone to spread out in the camping field, cabins and motel rooms, but we have forty miles of mountain...
I also have six 1100r20 tires with decent tread mounted on five ton rims... Not perfect, but good. Took them off a truck when I put newer rubber on it... Great for spares or for the budget minded individual who isn't afraid to run less then perfect tires (for a real bargain basement...
I found the box with the old style generators, and a bunch of lantern mantles, and some other pieces for lanterns, but not the big box of stove parts that had pump and tank pieces... Still looking while cleaning up the basement...
This does bring up the fact that I have eight or so Coleman...
Event T Shirts

More photos are on the event's Flickr page (links from the event website...).
FWIW: I should mention that we have a multi-level loading dock on the property very near the event field that can be used for unloading/loading Mules, Jeeps, and other items, from the back of cargo trucks and trailers...
Thanks for starting the thread!
I see that you are not the only one to have posted items (and I will add a post of my own as soon as I figure out what I have that needs a new home...).
For those that need assistance in finding threads...
We had a great 4th of July weekend working on the trails and celebrating the USA...
Had eight folks working on the trails, all of whom will be sporting Trail Crew shirts at the rally.
We got a bunch of the favorites cleaned up and ready and rediscovered a few that we haven't used in years...
