If they are sold out, backup is Fontana's campground or the MicroTel Inn in Robbinsville.

Thanks guys, I will be sure to catch up. Work and a sitter take priority. BTW, how many points did I start off with, or just 100 in the hole ?

You are automatically credited with 200 points for attending your first Dragon.
Unfortunately, points ain't worth nuttin.

Indeed welcome JD,
I am traveling up from Apex NC but leaving at 4am to take in some waterfalls on the way. Shame we couldn't drive up in convoy, but perhaps another year.
Look forward to meeting you at Fontana, you will certainly be back for more perhaps In the spring, once you are bitten with the twice yearly meets at Fontana you won't look back.
I am in the black roadster "OPEN TOP" be sure to say hi.

Glad you will be coming to join us
We have a drivers meeting in the lobby at Fontana Lodge around 9pm on Friday night
If it is at all possible to be there by 9pm on Friday night it will be to your advantage
We discuss the different routes we will run in different groups and in general we answer any questions that are asked of the members who are in attendance
I also like to recognize our first timers at the meet
When you arrive just ask around for Valk or Gary and come introduce yourself.
Again welcome

My thanks to all for the warm welcome. I will be good to meet and talk to humans, all I get is my sons Subaru roadies. Still, they serve a purpose, they are nice to see gettin' smaller in the mirror ! I'm not a virgin to the Tail, but will be new at an organized group of classy XFires. Franc, Pizzaguy, Andy, John, Gary and all others, it will be good to join in on the adventure. See you at 9 Friday night ! Thanks again, JD (aka..sicpuppy)
