Movie Night at IRG 3.0

[Phooey]

American Grafitti is my all time favorite but what about Animal House?

[Steve E]

Along with the main event being a movie how about filling in some time space in the evening with a teardrop talent scout hour. Could have sign up sheet and see if anyone has hidden talents to share...Jokes, skits, sing, dance or just anything that could be fun....Theresa could show how to roast the "Perfect Marshmallow" for instance.......ha Just a thought as long as everyone throwing in ideas........Patty

Sure wouldn't have any problem getting a host or a crew to host it... Doug, George, Lee, Dan and Guy come to mind but I think it's about time for folks like Kevin, Mike and Steve to venture into new territory.

No No No, we're not even gonna go there, the world's just NOT ready for that....
I should clarify my response to point out that it applies only to the text in red above. I think the talent contest is a great idea for those willing to compete.

I like Steves Idea of a Talent Hour, that would be a good time filler before the movies.

Steve E your in charge of that part of the evening.

In honer of being in the Redwoods how about “Harry and the Hendersonsâ€

Follow me, boys, follow me! One of my all time favorite movies of my youth. And its about camping, more or less. Fred Macmurry.

So what night was the movie at IRG 2.0? I was there thru Friday night, left Saturday around noon and don't remember ever hearing about it. It must have been Saturday night.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who missed movie night. I'm an "early to bed" kind of gal. (no comments on that one please..... )

I enjoy the peace and quiet there, and have never heard anyone being too noisy.

The website, which is always a work in progress, is pretty much complete at this point with the exception of the Event Schedule page and the Souvenirs page... They're always the last two pages to come together.
We're working on the schedule right now and need to touch base with the NRTA boys to finalize the schedule for the IRG Summer Nationals Teardrop Derby.
The Event Schedule page will also have links to a few new pages this year... We want to give more exposure to the raffle, teardrop derby and the eats.

Awesome idea! I would be more than happy to see both those movies again, but I have to suggest that "The Big Lebowski" be added to the list of considerations.

I concur! Excellent choice!

Kevin,

Keven, Come on Dude if nothing else you could preform.
You simply stand before 100+ folks with a plate of chocolate chip cookies before you and show us how to properly hold them, smell the fregrence like a glass of wine, edicate on chewing one and get the most of each ... My wife would love to cook some for you. ...then you can try for a record of how quckly a plate of chocolate chip cookies can disappear
If the Cookie Monster can do it before the nation you can do it for our small group.
MMMMMMM C O O-KIE.
go Keven go Keven go Keven go Keven go Keven go Keven go

[Ron Dickey]

For Movies I suggest ....
My suggestion is get a poll and see what wins.
Poll one could be for one group of films and one for a different group of films or a tie bracker.

American graffete and Mad Mad mad world or anything with cars and trailers in it will do fine for me. my Silent film idea was so we could just enjoy the sound of nature but that would not work someone will be telling a joke and out compete nature.
