Here we go. This is the list from last year with quantities, notes and volunteer revised.

Last year I bought 30 :eek: dozen cobs of corn!

fixed some small errors for you there John ;)
btw,can we borrow Mcleans cooker again?

[Fan of PPR]

We didn't approach the MacLeans. I felt if we do this on an ongoing basis we should get our own. They sell the flame thrower at TSC. I was going to buy one anyway. I believe Mark was going to look for something to use for a pot.

[big hoss]

John I have a galv. water trough that can be used for the pop,ice.
also have 1 cooler for sure that can be used.

[Haunted326]

last years Juke Box didn't survive the winter but i have a oh so familiar replacement :D

i might be able to do something about that tongs issue .
and i'll sit an peel corn if we cant find the slaves ... i meet the volunteers :D

No moose tracks this year john? , you got me hooked on that oh so delicious stuff :p

[fan of 9+19]

Yes This year i can sell the tickets but if you cant find anyone i Could wash the corn...

This is a bit on topic but off topic but For a while I have been thinking about for hillbilly night and that we bring out all of the hillbilly drivers and they park there cars the order they are in for the heat and then they all get out and they get out and sing "O'Canada" but before when doug goes down he could say what the hillbilly's do and how they support The bravehearts and then it migth get more people to buy the tickets!

Please write what you think about this idea

[Fan of PPR]

Good idea, buy have you heard them sing?
Dogs will be barking for miles!

[fan of 9+19]

That was mean fine then we will get you to sing just wait they will be barking around the world

[Fan of PPR]

No, they will be killing themselves. NO ONE sings worse than I do!
Besides, I don't know the words since they changed them.

[ministock19]

Bad idea Nicole,REALLY bad idea :o

[llm_racing]

ill supply the dogs for barking

[fan of 9+19]

ok we will not get the drivers to sing then and instead we could get Doug to say when they come out to race he could say about it and all that and when Dusty And Tommy are out Doug Could Say That they help with it too and well he is saying about it he could say A big thank you to everyone who has suported in big ways or even in little ways

[tessa_9]

We should take a poll and have everyone vote on the hillbilly they think most fitting to sing 'O Canada' and whoever wins HAS to sing.


My vote goes to John "doesn't have a hillbilly name yet? wtf?" McDonnell.

[Fan of PPR]

I was given a very insulting Hillbilly name last year! Fortunately I have forgotten the name but not the pain!
If someone thinks they have time, they can come and pick up my pickup truck (on a trailer or with a dealer plate) this week. Take off the doors, cut off the roof, windsheild posts and back window, paint it flat black (tremclad and a brush will work) and it is a Hillbilly Truck. It doesn't sound like Billy Hill is interested in buying it so I could donate it as a pace truck.

National anthems. Hmm . . .

American
Jose can you see
the cauaution light
from the photgrapher's view
nothing's in sight

Canadian
Oh Vararney
our home and native track
Joe screws it up
and denies it if he can

[stock4fan]

SS #9 will bring 4 pounds of butter, salt and 3 large roasting pans. Also will help to serve and clean corn if needed.

[fan of 9+19]

Yes Tessa i do agree we should all pick someone and they have to sing!!!

My pick goes to.......Billy Lovell It might be very funny

[Haunted326]

now before i get ahead of my self what date we having this shin dig again? :confused: this way i can make sure i have the right date marked off :D

[backflipping hillbilly]

August 16th Adam, same night as the twin 25's, you are gonna have your car out for that right?

[Haunted326]

im gonna try to get the car out for it jayne but i wont make any promises.
alright Aug. 16

juke box is packed , tongs are in front of me , hands ready to clean the most corn they have ever seen

what would you guys/gals want as a pace car? if i cant get the race car out i'll gladly pace for you guys for the night :D

[Super Jonny]

heres an idea, some people were telling me on saturday of when i get off the gas all you see was a 3 footer flame thrower comin out the exaust :D (i raced 14x as #5) so is that the kinda of flame throher you wanted john :D

[fan of 9+19]

No thanks I dont want to be granny.
I will stick to selling tickets this year.
So as you read i am NOT being granny.

[backflipping hillbilly]

but you would be so cute! Did you know we might even have a hillbilly truck for you to drive around in? Oh well....

[backflipping hillbilly]

Hey all you NEW hillbillies...just realized you might not have any idea what we are talking about. Last year, we hosted a corn roast in the pits after the races on hillbilly night (august 16th). We had a lot of drivers, fans etc. come and join us for some corn that we roasted in a bit pot. We also had a donation pot on the table for those who wanted to donate, all the money went to the special olympics. We can really use the support of all our Stock 4 Hillbillies (and hillbilly families) that night even if only in a very small way. Lets see some new names on this list!

[tessa_9]

I have a charcoal cooker we could use for butter? If it even works? We would have to test it beforehand.

[fan of 9+19]

Do we need more coolers at all to put things in because my neighbour has one that we could use but the only problem is that Cremascos would have to take it because it is too big to fit in our car so get back b4 friday so that we can get it clean and take it over to Cremascos for Saturday!!If you need anything else just ask and we wil see if we have any at our house or if any of our neighbours have one that they could lend because they alway are there to help. :) Nicole :)

[stock4fan]

As a person who may have spent a night or 2 enjoying quantities of brown pops. Let me introduce you to the worlds best most used cooler for bush parties, may not remember much about the bush parties but cleanup a snap! All you need is a laundry hamper and a garbage bag, fill with ice use till done party empty ice and water, fill with garbage. As for the hamper a good hose job, dry, return home no harm no questions oops foul!

[backflipping hillbilly]

Good thinking Randy, nice thing is they could be stacked whereas coolers take room to transport. Will see who has what! Updated list below...

Big Jug of good water (to use in corn) - Can we use tap water like we did last year?

[fan of 9+19]

I was over at Tessas last night and i was talking to jayne and we came up with this that i make ice for it and I put my mind to thinking and i figured out that i could make 80(small) ice cubes a day which bye hillbilly night i would made 720 ice cubes but that is if i remeber

[backflipping hillbilly]

that is a lot of cubes Nicole, don't forget!
The water mentioned above is to use with the butter, if you recall, we fill the butter pail about 2/3 full of water and the butter floats on top, allowing cobs to be dipped. Yes we will use tap water to cook the corn, just need a big jug for the butter. I do not have a sealable jug of any sort believe it or not or would bring some water from home. If anyone has one please bring water :)
Well guys loosing tonight for ticket sales really bites. We will have only half a night next week. I had lots of people lined up tonight to sell tickets too grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Oh well, we can only do what mom nature allows. Also John I was trying to figure out why you wanted plastic knives...were you thinking of butter? I do not think we need them.

Note to my little "Twin" thanks for the fun yesterday, it was nice to get away from here as well. Your shop looks just great, good luck with your opening monday and you are right the buns are YUMMY :D

[fan of 9+19]

I will try not to forget it is seeing if i can keep finding the freezer space to keep all the ice also do we need any treats because my mom who works at timmes and have to have fresh food so i could ask my mom if posssible to stock up this week to get Timbits and stuff like that so that there is more i will ask her tonight when she gets home about it because everyone loves Timmies.lol

[backflipping hillbilly]

Nicole, last year Linda SS9 worked at timmies in harriston and they donated a huge box of timbits for the corn roast. they were gobbled up. I am sure anything your mom could get would be appreciated! Thank you for thinking of that. I have to start remembering to make ice too!

[fan of 9+19]

Thanks Jayne for reminding me to go make the ice

[ministock19]

Go make some more ice! :p

[fan of 9+19]

I hate to tell you this but yesterday i went to go get the ice and the frezzer was not working but we have it working again so some of them from earler melted and i was not able to make new ones yesterday seeing how they melted but today everything is back on the road so we are all good but hey atlest we didnt have to give dennis frige and frezzer doors lol
