Serb Fest - "Serb Fest" Vs. "Fire & Ice Extravaganza"

"Serb Fest" Vs. "Fire & Ice Extravaganza"

While the title was officially adopted in 2003, its inaugural year is considered to be 1996 as this was the year that Jovan made the decision to invite a new contingent of attendees to TR each year. This is the year that truly marked the beginning of what most know Turkey Run to be today.

The title was originally intended to replace the title of "Serb Fest" when it was believed that the older generation was no longer going to be able to attend. Fortunately, 2003 aside, because at least one elder has been in attendance and those of the younger generation have vowed to uphold the true spirit of the original founding members, it was decided in 2007 that the weekend's events would continue to be known as "Serb Fest" for all time and "Fire & Ice Extravaganza" would simply be a secondary title for the weekend.

Famous quotes containing the words fire and/or ice:

    Tell a man whose house is on fire to give a moderate alarm; tell him to moderately rescue his wife from the hands of the ravisher; tell the mother to gradually extricate her babe from the fire into which it has fallen; but urge me not to use moderation in a case like the present.
    William Lloyd Garrison (1805–1879)

    He was high and mighty. But the kindest creature to his slaves—and the unfortunate results of his bad ways were not sold, had not to jump over ice blocks. They were kept in full view and provided for handsomely in his will. His wife and daughters in the might of their purity and innocence are supposed never to dream of what is as plain before their eyes as the sunlight, and they play their parts of unsuspecting angels to the letter.
