2009 Sky-Sol Annual Meet in Denver PDF Print E-mail
Written by Lynn Busenbark   
Tuesday, 30 June 2009

The 2009 North American Solstice Sky Meet (NASSM) took place in Denver from June 18-21 and ten roadsters from the Phoenix club participated.  While taking different routes to get to Denver, gm_roadster_table_sized.jpgeveryone arrived by Thursday in time to register at the GM Roadster table as well as the official event table.  The evening held an opening "cowboy" dinner (which was more Mexican than cowboy) and an after-party party in John and Lynn's saloon (oops, suite). No photos will ever be published for this late night event.

The PPM pit crew - that's Phil, Philippe, and Martin - spent all of their time installing grills, lights, and tunes and had little time for the "cruises" through the beautiful mountains near Denver.  Some of the rides had their challenges but the Poker Run went off without a hitch and the dinner at the casino was great!  

While the weather played havoc with the vendors' tents during the evening hours, the days werephil_and_grill_sized.jpg sunny and the crews worked non-stop.  Hanging around the show parking lot was a bit expensive as most folks decided to have some custom work done after seeing the products on other cars.  Joe and Jon went all out and had extensive custom leather work done on their interiors; John had a new grill; Harry a tune; Steve leather visor covers, and so on.  

Club members walked away with two prestigious prizes during the banquet and awards ceremony on Saturday night.  Joe (but if the pauls_winning_car_sized.jpgtruth is told, Sara) took the "Best Wheels" award and Paul the "Best in Show" with his radically modified yellow  "Solstice".  Jon, with his all leather interior and Bonnie's Q-Tip detailing, was the runner-up for the top award. 

The Arizona women would have been the clear winners in the"Best banquet_2_sized.jpgCopilots" competition had there been such an award - perhaps next year in Ohio...
