Johnson City Pig Roast 2008

- What is the Pig Roast? It is a motorcycle run put on by the Hill Country Toy Run
Association held the 2nd weekend of October in Johnson City, Texas to benefit
underprivileged children, primarily the Cherokee Home for Children.
- Is there a place for RV camping? Yes, the RVs are directed to sites along the river.
However, there are no sewer or electric hook-ups. RVs must be self-contained. It is important
that nothing be dumped as these campsites are along the river. If we encounter illegal
dumping of any material, we will be forced to require clean up deposits or ban RVs all
together.

- Can I bring my kids? Please remember that even though this is a benefit for children this is
a motorcycle run and some events may not be suitable for young children. If you feel
comfortable you can bring your kids; however, you are responsible for your them and their
well being. Children 6 and under are free. Anyone under 21 must be accompanied by an
adult. You are responsible for any minor you bring.

in a safe manner around others.
