    he original title o this event was actually so long it was a ull page story in itsel! Held on6-27-2009 at the Sun Sports Cycle and Watercrat Mall in Fort Myers, it was actuallymore than just a block party. It consisted o a block party atmosphere with motorcycles, lawntractor pull, bike show, daisy duke & boots contest and music & vendors. Te place was so busy

    it was almost conusing! Once again, Katie put on one amazing show. RoninRC assisted withthe parking duties and I can attest to the act that it was still hot and humid as it was earlier inthe day. Te show started at 6pm and the lawn tractor people fooded the parking lot almostimmediately. We ended up with the surrounding grass and ditch areas lled with trucks andtrailers and were lucky we had enough room in the event or the motorcycle parking which gotcrowded in a hurry. Te vendors kept things interesting and the music rocked things all nightlong. Te rest o the event went extremely well and the tractor olks held one hell o a show.

    All in all it was a great pre 4th o July and thanks to Katie and all who helped make it great. Teproceeds rom this event went to the Damien Garcia und.
