RV/Camping at Angel Fire Resort

Hello, fellow Sitzmarker members!  Phil and Cindy Newman are planning on hosting an RV/cabin event at the Angel Fire Resort on the nights of August 29, 30, and 31, 2026.  Given the popularity of this location, it is not too early to mark your calendars and make reservations for this event.  We expect that the Angel Fire Resort will fill up quickly.  The Angel Fire Resort is among the top RV resorts in the country with large, paved sites, on-site activities, a great club house, spa, as well as pickleball courts.  They also have new cabins which are part of the RV park.  Tents are not allowed. The Resort is located in one of the most beautiful locations in northern New Mexico where elk, deer, and eagles are frequent visitors.  Check out the resort at: Angel Fire Luxury RV Resort – New Mexico on Enchanted Circle.  This particular rally will appeal to those who want a more upscale experience and the option to participate in many planned activities.  Some of these activities may include:

  1. Welcome Dutch Treat Dinner in Red River
  2. Vietnam Memorial tour
  3. Pickleball play and instruction (equipment provided)
  4. Horseshoe Contest, ping pong playing, corn hole play
  5. Option for hiking, golf, or fly fishing
  6. Planned bike/e-bike rides
  7. Planned picnic by the lake (option drive or ride bike to lake)
  8. Progressive dinner
  9. Game night
  10. Chair lift and picnic at top of Angle Fire mountain
  11. Chuckwagon dinner show in Red River

You will need to make your own reservations by calling Angel Fire Resort directly.  The resort’s phone number is 575-377-4472.  Remember, if you don’t have your own RV, you can rent one or stay in one of their cabins.  If you are making a reservation for an RV spot, ask them to put you as close to Phil Newman as possible. IMPORTANT: Please contact the Sitzmarker’s Angel Fire Event host, Phil Newman at 214-437-3734, after you call and make resort reservations. He will provide you with additional details.  We expect this to be a great event.  Hope you can join us!

SNO Isotopes Tailgate & Game

LET’S ATTEND THE ISOTOPES BASEBALL GAME ON

TUESDAY, June 16, 2026

Tailgate Party – 5:00 pm    Baseball Game – 6:35 pm

We are planning to attend the Albuquerque Isotopes baseball game as a group on Tuesday, June 16.  Before the game, we plan to hold a “Tailgate Party” in a shady area with trees that is in one of the parking lots north of the football stadium (see map).  The tailgate party will begin at 5:00 pm but come when you can. The game starts at 6:35 pm.  You can bring any beverage or snacks to the Tailgate party to share with the group.  We will provide tables, plates, cups and flatware.  It will cost $7.00 (credit card only) to park in the lot so you may want to consider carpooling.

We plan to sit in the box seat section (probably Section 108) where the tickets cost $20.00.  If you would like tickets to sit with the group, contact Mike Harrison or Mike Campbell or contact us.  If your credit is good, he will purchase the tickets and distribute them just before the game or you could pick them up at his home during the day on the Monday before the game or on the day of the game.  Please note that the game starts at 6:35 pm.

Our chances of getting a block of tickets together will be much better if we buy the tickets at least 5 days ahead of the game day.  If you want to participate, please contact us soon, certainly by June 8.
