The Arizona Viper Club put together a great event going from Phoenix up
to Bryce and Zion National Parks in Utah. It looked like a ton of fun and with
their gracious invitation to the So Cal Club, 5 of us joined in on the fun.
Club members Anil and Amy spent countless hours on the event
and no detail left out. They did not miss a single thing and the event ran
absolutely perfect and was packed with things to do, awesome food,
breathtaking views and memories to last a lifetime.
A huge thanks Pete and Jennifer for all their work on the event as well.
Such great leadership and hospitality which just adds to the great Club experience.
Thursday morning meet point in Phoenix. I don't think anyone slept the night before as everyone
was excited to start the run
