If you are planning on attending the P&Y Convention in Phoenix, check out the biking and hiking opportunities at the resort! Trail 100 begins at the resort.

Do they have bike rentals?

From: azarchery

+100 on Carolinas, VERY popular hiking trail, don't know if I'd bike it though. you'd spend more time trying to get around people.

They'll get out of the way if they see Dan coming!

While doing a little looking around on the internet about Phoenix I found a place that may be of interest to non-hunters. It is called Biltmore Fashion Park. It is an upscale shopping center.

It is about 11miles south of the Convention site. I talked with P&Y but the are not interested in adding any additional extracurricular activities. I talked with the the Hilton and they do not have shuttle service available to go the the shopping center. I think Enterprise has a car rental site on Hilton premises should someone want to rent a car.

Might be an idea if wives, girl friends, etc. might want to go in together and rent a vehicle and go the to shopping center. It would be a great way to get you next dream hunt cancelled due to unexpected expenditures on some "really cute outfits that were on sale" !!!

I added a link for those of you who like to shop at Diesel. Hope you guys have a great time at the convention. Be sure that the next location that is chosen is in the Midwest. BTW, they have some nice murses if anyone is interested.

The women will have to go to the Fashion Park to get a "cute little outfit" before they can be seen on a hiking or on a bike trail.

What kind of a woman doesn't want to be in fashion regardless of the activity?

They may find some Super Slam deals at that fashion park that could wreck a wallet !! Makes me wonder if that Fashion Mall might not be a high fenced operation?

Have any of you guys received your banquet tickets? I mailed our groups banquet package in a long time ago, and they cashed our checks over a month ago, but I haven't received anything in the mail yet.

I just clicked on Franzen's link...

Pretty sure even Big Dan couldn't kill an elk if he was dressed in "diesel attire!"

Yikes...

First time attendee.... I had a question on the seminars at the convention. Do you have to sign in for them somewhere or just show up at them?

I see where you have to sign up and pay for the luncheons and dinners, etc. but found no info on attending the seminars?

From: steff
28-Mar-15
Seminars are open. Just walk in and enjoy! The registration form lists those events that are paid.
