Just wanted to say that on behalf of those who worked on hammering out the details on putting together the rally, that if were not for YOU the owners/participants, it would not have been the success it was.
We are grateful that after the depressing news of Euchee literally throwing us under the bus and kicking us out, we rallied, sought out a new location, new headquarters at the Terrace View and ended up, in my opinion, a better than expected Knoxville Rally 2012 @ Watts Bar, TN!!!!!!!.
I, myself, am very grateful to Joe Harrel for taking on the rally 3 years ago when it may have just ended right then and there. He did it all himself (including all the expenses) the past two years til this year when he allowed me to help (after some coaxing last year) with this years event.
My wife asked me how in the world am I going to help organize an event in TN living in Pennsylvania.....so I picked up the phone and called Roger Mills (I remembered meeting him last year) and thats how we got SKEWBY!!!!!!!!!
Skewby claims that he played on the line in his former football days but the way he picked up the ball and ran with it after he got involved was like Forrest Gump running right on out the stadium!!!!!!!!!! LOL!!!!!
We all have Skewby to thank and that's why I wanted to put up this post.......he pretty much single handedly organized the entire week. All I had to do was nudge here and there once in a while and he did the rest. INCLUDING, the day Euchee bailed on us and Skewby found HOJO's!!!!!
So thanks to Joe for never giving up, Roger for offering up his knowledge of the area and SKEWBY for doing all the ground work!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Obama has nothing over Skewby as a community organizer!!!! LOL!!!
Thanks Skewby!!!!!!!!!! Couldn't have done it without ya!!
