What are the details of this?
I wouldn't be staying overnight.
Our parking spot this year is at 13 mile and Woodward in the Northwood Shopping Center parking lot in Royal Oak , Mi.
This is a excellent location. Currently up to 50 spots are being held for us.
This is our basic outline of activity for the Woodward Dream Cruise 2009 ....

Friday Locals/drive ins can meet at the hotel 4 pm on and meet and greet before dinner.
Some arrive earlier and make plans to do different things together.
Others arriving later can meet up at the hotel and check in etc.
Maybe try to cruise Woodward Ave.with our Crossfire convoy. Honestly this is the only time you will get to cruise Woodward and enjoy it.
I think we should plan this as an actual club activity for this event done after dinner at Woody's Diner if WW is not closed early on Friday as well as Sat.
Friday night dinner is in Royal Oak at Woody's Diner at 7:00 pm with reservations, parking reservations have been made too.
After dinner return to the hotel and gather for some tailgating and continue visiting.


Saturday Locals/drive ins should meet at the hotel by 8:30 am to join the others for our trip to WDC parking spot.


Breakfast at the hotel until 8:30 for those running with the group to our Woodward parking spot

Breakfast also available at Leo's at 13 mile and Woodward (our parking spot)
9:00 leave the hotel and head for Royal Oak 13 mile/WW parking. The route to drive will be on the maps mailed out or one the forum.
Check out the cars, further discussions, wander around looking at other cars, etc.

Dinner at Tavern 13 at 5:00 pm (reservations have been made)

After dinner return to our original parking spots along Woodward and watch the end of the show. All the local law enforcement clears the road of ALL vehicles and at 9:00 Woodward ave is closed and everyone exits the area.


Sunday
Most have their own plans. Some head back home etc.

Ann if we can't get enough people interested in the 2007 patch I will buy the remaning 3 spots to get the patch made. Just let me know. Thanks, Pat

Yes, you're right; it is better than getting the "royal flush" unless your in a high stakes game of poker.................I don't think Ann plays poker?????????

For any out-of-towners staying over after the cruise, there's a CARFAX 400 NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Michigan International Speedway on Sunday. The track is in Brooklyn, MI approx 60 miles west of Detroit.

Yes, we have done that the past two years but this year we're going to take in the Henry Ford Museum afterwards (Monday, I think). Is anybody doing anything else special on the Sunday after the 'cruise'................we have reservations in the Best Western Dearborn for Sunday night.

Gentlemen there is a difference flush versus flushed, one is the reference to the typographic alignment of words while the other is what ever you might interpret it to be. Additionally the former should not be confused with justified text which would have rendered the screwball post a complete mess. Now lets examine the thought process which led you to read flush and interpret it as flushed shall we??
Only joking with you, had taken my info from wikipedia

In Canada, it is "left justified", "Centred or Centered" and "Right Justified".............I don't liked to be "flushed".
Ooooh, "full justified" is what I think you were referring to above, which is another variation of text style.

OMG, Ann............how did you get us here and can we please get back on track!

All done Roy- now back to WDC

If your name does not have an entry for the dinners (
fri sat) or an entry for parking (parking pd) you can not expect to have reservations for either. Some members haven't committed to anything yet are you attending?

If you want a space for a friend who does not have an XF it should work out fine please PM me.
