Join us at the White Rock Boat Club on White Rock Lake in Dallas from 6pm to 10pm for free hamburgers, hot dogs, soft drinks and music. This is our annual picnic and a family affair. Bring your spouse or significant other and spend time with your fellow BMWDFW members. Please RSVP by Sep 18 to [email protected] so we have an accurate headcount for the food. We ask you to please bring a dish to share with your fellow members. This has worked out well in prior years and we’ve had some spectacular dishes! If you prefer more adult libations, please bring your own. The White Rock Boat Club is located at 340 E. Lawther Drive in Dallas. For more on White Rock Boat Club, click here. Oct 13 – 15: Annular Solar Eclipse ride, Leakey, Tx.
Host lodging will be at the Frio Pecan Farm. I have secured the same house as used for the January ride and there is a room available with 2 queens and a private bath. It has plenty of space to socialize, a large kitchen and a fire pit. They also have 2-bedroom cabins available as well. The reservation policy is different here as you need to be committed to your stay 60 days out. Frio Pecan Farm will give you credit that can be used up through the end of the year if you must change your plans. If you are interested in making reservations call and Susan will be able to answer any of your questions. https://friopecanfarm.com at 830-232-5294. Lunch is still planned on the 14th to be at the Junction Burger after the eclipse.
This is the same weekend as the Lone Star Riders 36th Annual Texas Gathering that is usually in Kerrville. So there’s a lot to do that weekend with the main motivation to see the eclipse at noon on Saturday the 14th. Questions – contact Dave Frankenfield at 703 727-5123.Oct 26 – 29: Fall Color Tour, Eureka Springs, AR
Reserve these dates on your calendar. Host hotel is the Trails Inn,
800-962-4691 / 479-253-9390, https://www.thetrailsinn.com/ .
