The TJM Corn Boil
will commence at noon Saturday August 17th, 2013 at the
home of Bruce and Jessica Mathews just south of Luray, VA. So what
on earth is a “Corn Boil”? Think family picnic, BBQ, one day
Regional Gathering, party all rolled into one. We will supply grill,
corn, hot dogs, corn, rolls, corn, chips, corn, dips, corn, soda,
and of course CORN. You bring something to share with other
attendees. Last year we had about 130 attendees from many states.
Facilities available include a garden / stream / pond complex, hot
tub, Addams’ Family pinball machine, bocce, trampoline, picnic
tables, a separate game area, a huge collection of bubble-blowing
devices, 3 acres suitable for kite flying, plenty of space for
tenting or campers should you want to stay overnight, etc. This is a
family event so well behaved children are most welcome. We are ten
miles from the world famous Luray Caverns and near the South Fork of
the Shenandoah River so you might want to visit the underground
world or go rafting / canoeing also. Last year saw many staying over
in the area and going rafting on the river on Sunday. RSVP for
directions and to coordinate food to 540-778-3287 or
drdown@msn.com
until 8/16/13. There are several hotels in Luray about ten miles
from the Mathews’. Even closer, several rental cabins are available
within one mile. |
