Well, we have a new PONY EXPRESS Newsletter out
this month! Golf Tournament a
Success The 2002 edition of the Wild West Show Grand
Prix was a huge success. April 24 was thankfully
unusually warm and sunny. Twenty two people turned
out to participate or watch this years event, held
at an outdoor course between Marne la Vallée
and Melun. The Go Karts were equipped with Yamaha 250cc
engines. Much more powerful than in past years. Excitement was high and the boastful talk was
everywhere. At the end of four different time trials,
involving numerous wrecks and lead changes, The
winner was Bruce McEwen (show Director), followed
by Jimmy Kitson, and Brock Holbrook in third. Immediately following the racing, the trophy
presentation was held and the obligatory showering
of Champagne was held. All proceeded then to the picnic area where a
tailgate party had already started. During the
winding down party, our WWS Grand Prix Drawings
were held. Winners were, Devlin with a racing Jacket and
Cathy with an auto repair toolkit. All agreed that we should have another soon. Despite an official name change, an announcement
of the show closing, numerous manager changes, a
somewhat less energetic than necessary marketing of
the Wild West Show. We celebrated our tenth
anniversary on April 12, 2002. During the last few months, it has been made
known that the show is healthy and one of only a
few places making money consistently. Word has it
unofficially that the show will stay open till at
least 2006. During the anniversary shows on April 12, a new
and temporary event was held in place of the flag
event. Pony races! The ponies were anything less than cooperative,
which made for an exciting and hilarious race. After the shows, a celebration was held in the
pre function where our present management team were
outrageously dressed. Cake and beer were served and
awards were presented to honor cast member
achievements. A retrospective video by Mike Lewis
was presented to honor the beginning stages of the
show and the people still here. Interviews and old
clips were shown. All agreed that it was a great party and a night
to remember. |
