2011 was Smokin' HOT!
And because of that we have changed the dates of the show for 2011. Temperatures on the pavement reached 110 degrees...that was just too hot to be safe for our participants and our spectators. After much discussion, we have moved the dates for Summer Jam 2011. Please mark your calendars early this year for:
July 21-22, 2012
