Looking forward to seeing you at Pate. We are Block 18 on the corner of Foyt Drive, between 4th and 5th streets - Light green Monaco motor home. We fly a Texas A&M flag so we are hard to miss. Stop by for some cold water if you are in the area. Good luck on your trip.

May run across you at New Braunfels but we do not set up there, just enjoy.

Cheers, John Young Alamo A's San Antonio

Many Pate attendees stay on site and cook in. Not really anything near that is worth the traffic nightmare at quitting time. You will have no trouble hooking up with BBQ-ers who are glad to feed you. Be prepared for intense heat as well as bitter cold, rain, hail tornadoes, you name it. This is a DON'T MISS meet, you will be impressed!!

New Braunsfels is the weekend before. I sell most of my stuff there and have little left for Pate. A great place to buy and sell. Spaces B102-104. Come by and say hello.

Haven't been to Pate since it moved from the Pate Museum of Transportation. Plan to attend this year. How many of you remember wandering around the old Pate, looking for goodies, oblivious to your surroundings; then stumbling over rocks, stumps, and cactus? Not to mention mud puddles.
