The Pavilions is scheduled to start back up towards the end of this month with limited cars, and possibly after a couple of months the plan is to get back to normal. Pontiac night is always the 2nd Saturday of the month and the group still plans to have it there, but again it might take a few months for that to get back to normal.
Until that happens they have been having their all Pontiac cruises lately in Mesa at another local cruise there. Last Saturday Mark and Tom announced they were having an all Pontiac cruise at 67th and Bell as well. May have been a one time deal for a large Pontiac gathering, but that cruise has been going strong throughout the beer virus deal if you're looking for a place to hang.

Desert Renegades are still around in Phoenix. They work with the Tucson chapter frequently for local shows and events. They just announced they are having an all Pontiac show scheduled later this year November 6th in Casa Grand. They also announced the Western Regional All Pontiac Event September 23-26 held in Williams Arizona this year.
Tom Knecht is a super nice guy, if you contact him via email (provided in your post) he'll put you on the mailing list and you'll get all the updates via email of any Pontiac happenings going on around Arizona.

They usually also organize a big Rt 66 cruise every year. I haven't heard yet a date on that one. Tom also organizes an all BOP show at the Pavilions every year, usually early spring, a judged event, not the usual Saturday night cruise, but I haven't heard of a date or if it's going to happen yet this year or not.

Unfortunately the Pavilions is on Salt River Reservation land and the Indians have been extremely strict, more so than the city of Phoenix. So all that stuff in the Pavilions area right now is in limbo.

Of course there is also Pontiac Heaven that Steve puts on at Wildhorse Pass dragstrip, and the next one is scheduled for November.

There are also usually a bunch of them at Goodguys, and they also have a swap space there. The next Goodguys is scheduled for April 16th-18th at Westworld.
