Ohio MB & WVO-Bio-D gathering.

As many of you know I'm moving from OH (Youngstown) to FL and fueling as much of the trip as I can on cooking oil. I've decided to have a Bon Voyage party in Youngstown on the weekend of Sept. 6th, Come display your vehicle!!!! Final Time and location TBA. I leave that Sunday or Mon. morning.

I will be inviting former students of mine and friends also. so it will be a family affair. I'm working on getting Live Entertainment as well. Donations of cooking oil (not shortening) encouraged.

Everyone is invited to bring some food and join the pot luck following the public display of the MB's and WVO/Bio-D rigs. Bring enough food for yourself or family, and the preacher as they say)

(Bring Lawn Chairs, little tables etc.)

email me at coachgeo@hotmail.com to get more details or to RSVP

Press is being invited
