So due to a pet illness Katie is not going to be able to do the Tuesday night spaghetti dinner or even be able to come to the dragon. We thank her for many years of hard work and tasty spaghetti. We have offered more than once to help with many tasks and she only let us move all the picnic tables into her yard..lol. But with so many people coming in Tuesday night from the long drive, we knew it was important to have a have a hot meal and a chance to see all your friends as soon as you get to Fontana. So for this year only (Katie's will be hostess with the mostest next year), Detroit Tuned is moving the Tuesday Night Spaghetti Dinner to our tent on vendor row. We will have lots of pasta, homemade sauce, “sprinkle cheeseâ€, paper plates, forks and napkins..and tables...we are even trying to figure out how to get a fire pit... I know people have brought other dishes and deserts in the past so we are working it the same way as before. Just bring a chair, your beverage of choice and your happy smiling face and we will all have a good time. April 29th 2014 6:00 PM the DT tent Vendor Row, any questions. Post here or hit us up via email, [email protected] . Thanks!
Chad, We picked up a fire pit last year for our Philly driveway at the Home Depot in Maryville, TN. $59.00 Home Depot Maryville #724 943 Foot Hills Mall Dr Maryville, TN 37801 (865)983-6200 Round Copper Fire Pit-DS-15944 at The Home Depot
Well done, Chad! My buddies and I will be there, to help you keep up the tradition! Thanks so VERY much! Jeff
Let me tell you all a story... 10 years ago, when I stayed at Fontana for the 1st time, I was alone in my cabin with nothing to do. I was there early, and didn't know the area and so was a little hesitant to venture out on my own. I decided to whip up some spaghetti sauce and make some pasta for my dinner. I then thought Why not make some extra and see who shows up. Mind you, I didn't know a soul back then. So, I cooked all day, and then made a sign out of a white garbage bag with red Magic Marker lettering. It read FREE SPAGHETTI DINNER 6PM. I taped it to the front porch railing. 6 o'clock rolls around and there's a knock at my door. I open the door, and there stands a skinny blond guy with several other people. "Hi, I'm Chad" says the blond. "We're here for the free spaghetti dinner". I don't remember who the other folks were (Chad, do you?), but we happily ate together, and a friendship,and a tradition, was born.
LOL no i don't remember at all.. but i think i have some pics of the year after that. We are just happy to help.
