While
we've seen some attendees step away from Serb Fest for various
reasons, it's safe to say the door is never closed for any of
these fine people to return! Take Sean Sullivan for instance -
A one-time attendee in 2000 made an unexpected return in 2012.
There are a number of men from the infamous TR 2004 who could
very well make a return at some point. As for Feces Mike and Family....
we're working on them! I do believe we'll see them back before
too long!

Sean
was a TR 2000 recruit by OLAF. While it is presumed that he enjoyed
himself greatly that year, it was to be his only trip to TR. This,
the case until rumors began flying in late April 2004 that his
attendance was likely for TR 04. Unfortunately, this never materialized.
However, Sean along with his wife Melissa did finally make the
highly anticipated return to TR in 2012!

Dan
F ::
Serb
Fest Origin :: Zelenkovich Family
First Serb Fest :: 1999
Recruited by :: Scott Berger
Dan,
after just one trip to Turkey Run in the late '90s, he successfully
made near TR legend status with a series of antics at TR 1999.
After a 4 year absence from Turkey Run, everyone wasin HIGH anticipation
of his triumphant return in 2004! Amidst this great anticipation,
Dan answered the call by holding a press conference in the Spring
of 2004 to officially announce his return to TR. In 2006, Dan
was at the center of a dispute that nearly resulted in the second
official demerit in TR history. Opinions were mixed on the matter
- but after careful considerations, the Founding Members refrained
from issuing the demerit. After 3 consecutive years in attendance
in the mid 2000's, Dan parted ways with TR in what most would
agree was an unfortunate set of circumstances.
None
the less, despite his near-demerit in 2006, Dan has always been
a fine representation of the Tenets
of Turkey Run. His Legend will most definitely live on in
a positive light and perhaps one day in the future, he will return
to the grills of Turkey Run.

In
2007, Eric hit the TR scene with avengence! With the initiation
of the game of Bags, he soon unleased a dominance that could not
be competed with. Drinking an entire bottle of Mad Dog Malt Liquer
on Saturday afternoon wasn't even enough to waiver his skills.
His
ability to consume large amounts of alcohol and interact with
the Serbs earned him Rookie of the Year honors by unanimous vote!

Arpan
made his 1st trip to Turkey Run in 2004 after a long history of
ongoing invitations. Unfortunately, due to family obligations,
he was never able to attend. While he was skeptical of the hype,
its safe to say he now understands what TR is all about. Its just
a Barbeque!... with a few added features!

Vince
was the final addition to the TR 2004 line-up and it proved to
be a great one. He no doubt was able to provide an unusual brand
of entertainment to the group - always a welcomed trait.
In
2008, the Intellectual of the Year award was officially renamed
in honor of its first ever recipient. A fitting way to pay respect
to the intellectual of all intellectual TR attendees, past, present
and future.

Chuck
The Truck made a solid impression on TR 04. He should indeed be
commended for his initiative in learning the fine art of grilling
cevapcici. This was very remeniscent of TR 03's rookie of the
year. Unfortunately, to date, TR 04 has been the only year of
attendance for the Truck... but in January of 2008, in an encounter
with Scott, Chuck most definitely expressed great interest in
one day returning to TR!
