Old Cars, Old Guys and Catfish gathering
2017-10-02 17:00 - 19:00 | AR
On Monday October 2nd we are having the third annual Old Cars, Old Guys and Catfish gathering at Geyer Springs First Baptist Church 12400 Interstate 30.
There is NO entry fee or registration. We will gather as close to 5:00 as possible and the show/shine will start at 5:30. We will eat catfish at about 6:00. There is no charge for the dinner for non Geyer Springs members. Dinner will be served followed by a short devotion. Don’t worry, we are not going cast judgement on anyone or pressure anyone to come to church. We will extend an invitation to visit the Geyer Springs any time to see what is going on there. Last year some ladies stayed for the event , therefore, I can’t see why that would be a problem this year.

The address for the Shelton’s is 4169 Peeler Bend Rd., Benton 72019. If coming from Little Rock or Benton, take I-30 West to Exit 116. Stay in the Left lane. You will come to a stop sign. Turn Left (at this point the Service Road becomes a 2-Way street). Follow the service road past the Exxon Station. You will turn Right at 229 (Bruno’s Little Italy is at the corner). You will then go over a river bridge and around a sharp curve. The first street on the Right is Peeler Bend. Turn Right onto Peeler Bend (stay on the pavement all the way to the house). When you are getting close, you will pass New Prospect Church on the Left and then you will see a sign on the Right “River Ranch”. Keep going. You are almost there. Our house is on the Left. It has a long front porch deck sitting 15-20 feet off the ground. There will be 2 rows of icicle lights across the front porch. (Our house is 2.8 miles down the road once you turn onto Peeler Bend). If you go the River, turn around. We will be the 4th house on the Right. Please park in the yard on either side of the driveway. If you are coming from Malvern or Haskell take I-30 E to Exit 116.

Hi All:
The cruise in at Market Street Food Court is set for May 19th from 6:00 to 8:00. Parking will be in the lot behind Thomas Real Estate offices. Food trucks will be available along with indoor dining area. Cars should enter the parking lot on Cross Street. The Conway Street entry is not very car friendly. I will need about 5 club members to assist in parking. We will also need folks to help pick up trash off the parking lot after the event. I know there are a lot f graduations going on this time of year but this is the only date we could get. Please spread the word as the Food Court people and myself plan to make flyers. I will keep everyone in the loop if something changes. In case you don’t know the Food Court is on the North East corner from the court House. No entry fees or trophies at this time.
Thanks
Shane
