Gotcha, Jim!
I will be telling all the first timers to take a look at your car and talk to you.

Franc,
People are asking about this over on Facebook. I'm telling them that when you finalize plans, I will post over there and direct them to what ever thread you create for signups.
Looks like no less than 33 of the 58 cars so far registered are arriving Thursday. Looks like a good crowd for your event if on Friday (and probably even more if on Saturday).

I'm getting with Jim and Trish this week on it.
I don't do Facebook but will contact you and Gary when I have final dates.
Right now it looks to be Friday leaving the lodge at 9:30 AM on the usual route.

Ok, I'll wait for final word.
62 cars, if those who say they are going really all go.
And we have two months to go.

OK it is on for Friday the 6th. Leave the lodge at 9:30 AM. Leave the chateau when ever you wish.
The trip down takes 2 to 2.50 hours. One can make it back on 64 to Franklin and then to the lodge on the main highway in about an hour. Leave at 4:00 and get back n time to meet incoming members at the lodge.
The day is free with a great meal and lovely view with a wonderful couple. Bring a token gift, wine, a local micro brew beer if you like.
If it rains on Friday then the whole thing will move to Saturday.

Add Marc Matherne to the list! - Thursday to Monday. He is not on The Forum.
.... Marc has to be on his own line because he is bringing his SRT6.

Thanks for adding Marc! He's on there twice though and I noticed I'm listed as leaving Sunday, but I'm leaving Monday. I'm not sure whether Marc is leaving Sunday or Monday, but maybe put him down as leaving Monday. 😊

Done, John.
(DOn't know where you guys are getting these rooms, I was told they were pretty much booked last Monday - that is, until other group's room blocks release, in the next several weeks.)

I would check back in a few weeks , as Mark said some rooms that were block for other car groups may open up , or call back and have them put you on a list so if a room come open they will give you a call

Dragon Update: The lodge is flat booked, period. The other groups did book all their rooms and them some, just like we did, so no rooms will be released after all.
We have grabbed over 50 rooms (we had a contract for 40). They gave us more rooms in the lodge at the discounted rate, but all that is left is 3 Honeymoon Suites and 3 Cabana Rooms at $149 each. THERE IS A HOLD ON THESE SIX ROOMS FOR US ONLY until end of business today. Please call 800-849-2258 today if interested.
There will be one or two of us who will cancel due to family, work or car issues - so check this thread often as the date approaches, as the lodge wont' refund a room at the last minute, but you CAN sell your room to someone else!
