This was a request by one of the NAFA members to have them all listed on the NAFA website. Anyone out there able to help?
Thanks,
I know they didn't have one in 1965 but they did have a 1965 meet but it was in January of '66 in Elko Nevada, later the same year '66 they had another in Centerville SD over Thanksgiving. I think that was Greg Thomas's first meet. I don't recall seeing him at the '64 meet also in Centerville, SD. I think there is a Sports Illustrated article on the 63 meet also in Centerville, I wasn't there but my good freind Joe Platt was and it was he that created my interest in going to the next one. Before that there were at least one maybe two but I wasn't there.
The 1967 meet was in Indiana I'm thinking, could be wrong, I didn't go. The 1968 meet was back in Centerville and created a ruckus among the town folk so it was the last one in Centerville. They had another in Yankton SD maybe more but I was shamed out of going to anymore (see ruckus above).
