    Sautrday 23 August, 12pm, Sugarite State Park, NM (east of Raton, NM)

    OK, only 5 days until this event! Bring nice cameras with you. We have gotten lots of rain here lately, and everything is turning nice and green. Will be spectacular SRT pics in Sugarite park! There is plenty of fishing there too, so if you have a NM fishing license, bring your pole, and you can fish the whole south side of the lake (If you would like to get a NM license, PM me, and I will tell you where you can get one). If you have a CO fishing license, you can fish the north part of Lake Maloya, and also fly or lure fish on the adjoining Lake Dorothy.


    We will meet along Lake Maloya, and there I will provide maps to go up to Vermejo Park, and afterwards to El Raton Theatre. We will try to arrange a photo op at the top of one of the hills at Vermejo Park, with a beautiful backdrop of the Sangre de Christo mountains, and I will take a photo of each participant's vehicle. We will see these pics on the big screen when we return. Once at the theatre, we will watch some videos, play some games, and order in some pizza.


    Directions:
    From the South:
    Take I-25 North to Exit 452. Turn right, and stay on NM 72 for 4 miles. At this point, the road will fork, keep left (now on NM526), and go into Sugarite State Park. About 1 mile in will be the ranger station. Stop there and fill out a park Day Use Pass ($5). After that, continue up the very fun road for 5 more miles. At the top, you will be on top of the Lake Maloya Dam. Drive across, and follow the road along. We will park along the road about another 1/2 mile on.

    From the North:
    Take I-25 South to NM Exit 452. Turn left, and stay on NM 72 for 4 miles. At this point, the road will fork, keep left (now on NM526), and go into Sugarite State Park. About 1 mile in will be the ranger station. Stop there and fill out a park Day Use Pass ($5). After that, continue up the very fun road for 5 more miles. At the top, you will be on top of the Lake Maloya Dam. Drive across, and follow the road along. We will park along the road about another 1/2 mile on.

    From the East (Oklahoma, Texas):
    Take US64/87 from Clayton to Raton. At Raton, turn right onto I25 North for 1 mile. Take the first exit, Exit 452. Turn right, and stay on NM 72 for 4 miles. At this point, the road will fork, keep left (now on NM526), and go into Sugarite State Park. About 1 mile in will be the ranger station. Stop there and fill out a park Day Use Pass ($5). After that, continue up the very fun road for 5 more miles. At the top, you will be on top of the Lake Maloya Dam. Drive across, and follow the road along. We will park along the road about another 1/2 mile on.

    If you have any videos (car videos, car chases, etc), or video games you'd love to play on a 25' movie screen and full Dolby Digital sound, PM me! Hope to see all of you there!

    Sadly, we will not be able to make this meet.

    I was invited to a major car show with an opportunity to make it in next years calendar.

    Next meet I will make.

    still looks like a decent meet. i'll be helping nevin with his car this weekend though.

    woulda been nicer to have like 30 people, specially for a 2-state meet.
