I've even paid the credit card bill already !

I should be able to make it all and hopefully even Quaker Steak & Lube the following Friday !

Great news that Pelican is stepping up and supporting our hobby in yet another way. Thanks Wayne. I think this event raised over $100,000 last year for the Ronald McDonald House!

If you haven't been to this in the past, it is well worth the drive. There are lots of things to do over the weekend. This will be my 4th year in a row.

That's not a Maker's in Curt's hand is it?

Erik Mckenna · 05-11-2007, 03:39 PM

No... that's not the mark

So how many of you guys are planning on going??
maybe If we can get a number we can get a special area set aside from JUST Pelican heads..
so lets see if we can get a rough number..
I will be there!

mjshira · 05-11-2007, 03:41 PM

Unfortunately I'll be leaving the area to be up in Cleveland on the 27ths. But what's this thing about Quaker Steak & Lube the follow friday? You talking about the one in Beavercreek?

Erik Mckenna · 05-16-2007, 05:42 PM

Yeah... the one out by Wright State

rexav8r · 05-20-2007, 03:05 PM

Well, I bought my tickets for the different events early hoping everything would work out - and it DID !!!

I'm definitely going to be in town for most everything next weekend. I may still have a conflict on Saturday, but I'm for sure going to be there on Sunday & Monday !!!

I'm hoping to make Quaker Steak & Lube too, but that's going to be close...

Anyone else ?? I thought more Pelicans would have chimed in by now ???

Any Right Coasters coming in ???

Erik Mckenna · 05-23-2007, 09:55 AM

So no one is going to check thisout... I thought we might get a bigger Pelican turn out and have a nice area set up for that .. oh well I guess i won't worry to much about going that route.
Well I hope to see some of the guys there if not maybe next year.

So is there a " loose" list of all the guys that will be making the trip in to hang out?

It's gunna be a fun time! hahaha!!!
Later EM

Well, like I said, I'm kind of busy this week so I won't be able to show up to anything. Might be able to make the Monday thing at the Nutter Center if I get back in time. Never been to something like that.

I'll probably swing by Quake Steak and Lube the following Friday. I've past it a billion times but never stopped before.

I see there is a covered bridge tour the following Saturday. Is that normally just P-cars, or is it a variety of different cars?

rexav8r · 05-23-2007, 07:00 PM

In the past, the Covered Bridge tour has been mostly Porsches, but there have always been a good number of distinguished others in almost all the events, especially the Concours.

Hey Erik,

I am coming down with the RS tomorrow and will there through Monday. Can't wait to see the expansion of the Taj.

I didn't know anything about checking out a cool car collection after the car show until I read this thread. Should be a great weekend.

Kaliv · Kaliv's Garage

FYI, I signed up for the covered bridge tour. Any others want to chime in if they will be there?
