Lunch During 32 Revolver Peoria Visit

Flying Dog · 06-09-2011, 10:35 AM

Dave & Joyce (32 Revolver) will be visiting us here in Peoria on June 24 & 25th. We would like SSR Fanatics to join us for a lunch, meet & greet.
I have sent out PMs to some, but any SSR owner is welcome to join us. We would like to know how many are planning on coming so we can make sure the restaurant has tables for us.

We thought we would keep the lunch on Saturday, June 25, a simple meet, eat & greet. Some of the folks will be driving in from other areas, so we thought lunch at around 1:30 PM would give time to eat, see the SSRs, visit and get to know each other a little. It would also get the folks from other areas back on the road and home by evening.

We picked Avante's on Knoxville because it is easy to find, locally owned, has good food at reasonable prices, and has a big, visible parking lot for parking the SSRs. Address below in case you have GPS.

Avanti's Restaurant
8517 N. Knoxville Avenue
Peoria, IL 61615

Please let us know if you will be able to attend the lunch. You can PM a reply or email me at; design57@comcast.net

Dave & Joyce Emery are really great people to know and hang out with!
Dave is the builder of award winning hot rods & is working on a new one!

We are sure looking forward to seeing you all, & wives, mates, etc.!!
You are also welcome to meet up at our house earlier if you want. PM or email me if you need our address for GPS.
I'll keep you advised as the date gets closer.
Ron & Frieda

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe he is tweeting or something.

Dave, Sorry that you and Karin can't be here, but I can't blame you for using your tickets to go see Jimmy Buffet.
Hopefully we can schedule a few more central mid-west get togethers in the future.

Dennis, It was nice to meet you in Florida at the rally in Kissimmee!
Sorry you and Jo won't be here, but a 50th wedding anniversary is much more important!
Congratulations to you both!
As I mentioned to Achias, I hope we can schedule a few more central mid-west get togethers in the future.

FloRidah · 06-19-2011, 05:55 PM

Hi,

It is not OUR 50th wedding anniversary, but rather a good friend's who we committed to attending before the Peoria notice was posted.

Enjoyed meeting you guys in Kissimmee also, hope to see you soon.

regards,
Dennis & Jo Miller

Stay out of Dirty Al's!

Is that still there? I lived there about 22 years ago, and Dirty Al's was the place to see the "ballet" in Pioria .. or Peoria.
