Canonball Run to the Phoenix Soldiers' Event in Mesa AZ, Sept 18th 2011?

I'm seriously considering trying to hit this event. Its being put on by Phoenix Soldiers, and is to benefit a great cause; these guys find wounded vets and active military, and support them and their families in many different ways. This fundraiser will go toward helping that goal.

And as if that wasn't enough, the Luxury Performance Raptor will be there live in person as well.

Its being hosted by Chesters Harley Davidson, 922 S. Country Club Drive, Mesa, Az and will run from 11am to 2pm.

I'm not 100% sure I can do this, but figured I'd throw it out there just in case any of my NorCal, SoCal, Nevada, Az and elsewhere buddies might want to try and make it as well. Its not an offroad thing, but still it might be cool to show up en mass, support a great cause, see the LPR in person and meet the people behind it.

Well I was able to pull this off and get down there! I didn't see any other Raptors though, unfortunately. But I was glad to make it, shake many hands, give hugs and say 'thanks'... definitely a cool event full of people who were all there for the right reasons. It was great to see.

J, Did you go over to ADD while you were there?

Hi Chris. I sure did, but they were closed. So I ended up taking the pup over the freeway to the Lost Dutchman state park and hiking around.

It really was a cool event. Glad I made the trip.
