Phase 2 runs July 7-12, 2009 at the dunes with all the traditional events to include a vendor fair, sandcar challenges,
motos, GP's, the TI Poker Run, FSA Drag Racing, barrel racing, relays, music, bonfires plus a whole lot more!

come first served basis (must register at the Casino RV Park).  For those of you camping in the dunes, a shuttle service will be
available by the casino during Phase 2 between the main event area and the Casino.  
See ya there!

And we're doing it BIG!  SandFest 2009 will be
seen in all it's glory from coast to coast on the
following:
Wally Cahill intended to be here to cover the excellent action at SandFest 2009
but he suffered a stroke two days ago at his home in Arizona.  He is facing some
tough challenges ahead but his spirits are up and he's still busting my chops.
I speak for everyone in this sport when I say get better my friend.......... Say, I
wonder if a Banshee Cub will fit in a hospital gurney?  Hmmmmmm
GET WELL SOON WALLY
