  • Friday Veterans Home Car Show

    Have any of you folks in the Baton Rouge area given any thought yet to what we could do in the area for the traditional Friday afternoon Veterans HRPT kickoff event?

      excellent idea....probably would take someone with knowledge of the area, and local veteran's places, to try and organize something....anyone else heard anything?

        Hey guys I was going to look into that but a couple of weeks ago I developed some back problems following an MIR I was told 4 herniated disc in lower back so I'm dealing with that now but have friends whom I'm going to contact about setting up a veterans visit and starting line party. As things proceed I'll start a thread on here. So stay tuned.

          Sounds like a wiener! If anyone in the area has any suggestions in the mean time post them up here so that Dave can see them.

            know what you're going through....after some back issues years ago, my MRI showed six herniated discs (three upper, three lower); not too severe yet, but doc says, don't play football....hah! anyway, back on point.....keep us posted re: any events pre-Power Tour.......

              Are we talking veterans of the Tour or military veterans?

                        Nice pictures! I remember it well. As we were leaving, I asked the lady taking the money when you come in the door at the VFW how they did that night. She said that we had doubled their normal take for their regular Friday night fish fry.
