Miatas in the Ozarks (4 Jun 2026)

Thu, 04 Jun 2026 05:00:00 GMT

Leader: George Lucas--See correction, Idabel is in Oklahoma.

Greetings, y’all!

Marilyn and I will be making this run below to Arkansas and if you all are interested in joining us, see details below!

We will be departing on Thursday, June 4th, it being a two-day trip arriving in Eureka Springs on Friday.

I have the trip planned out, but if you’re wanting to get there before our group, just do it, but please, no, “Let’s go, c’mon, let’s go, hurry up, let’s go!” Oh, I won’t necessarily go slowly, but I’m wanting to enjoy the drive as Northeast Texas and Northwest Arkansas have beautiful roads! And we’ll experience them, too!

First night will be Idabel, Oklahoma and I have 6 rooms booked under my name, so if you want to join us, please call Comfort Suites in Idabel at 580-245-6546. Mention my name when booking your room.

This below is the NWA’s offering:

Miata’s in the Ozarks June 4-7, in Eureka Springs. We will have a Miata Parade through Eureka Springs to show the world the fun we have with our Miata’s, as well as get togethers just to visit with other like-minded folks. Unlike other Eureka Springs events we have had we will not have a formal Meet and Greet Dinner, nor will we have a Saturday night Banquet. The good news is there is no registration fee or anything other than show up and have fun! We will need to have Club members help with leading drives. If you want to make a weekend of it, make your reservations for what should be a fun time in Eureka Springs.

Miata’s in the Ozarks Best Western Inn of the Ozarks is the host hotel, 479-253-9768. Call the hotel directly Ask for Northwest Arkansas Miata Club block of rooms.

School House Run (6 Jun 2026)

Sat, 06 Jun 2026 15:30:00 GMT

Hosted by Ed and Barbara Smith.

A return to the popular School House run from pre-Covid days. The Gillespie County Historic Schools are now reopening for tours.

Weather permitting, this years run will take us to three different one-room schools which operated from the late 1800’s to the mid-1900’s. For some of you old-timers, you may have been there before on a previous run. In the morning, we will visit two schools, followed by lunch, then on to the third school. The trip will cover about 55 miles of backroads around Gillespie County. For the newcomers, each school house has restrooms and refreshments available.

On Saturday 6/6/2026, we will meet at the Quick Trip (QT), exit 523 on IH-10 in Comfort, Texas. Gather at 10:30am and go at 10:45am. Be sure to bring your two-way radios. A quick sandwich lunch at Wildseed Farms then after lunch we will continue to the final schoolhouse.
