May I get some more information about this shindig so I can start making plans to maybe show up? Hotels, dates, events, any help needed ... Maybe by then I will be able to access my belongings (now in storage in Connecticut). I miss my cars and have many more for sale/trade waiting to be unleased from storage bins. I have it down for April 11-13th weekend in Denver PA. |

The Mustang II is a Mustang too!

So far, the most informative topic is this one: http://swiftysgarage.net/index.php?showtopic=1708 The hotel is the Holiday Inn, and the date is set for the 12th (its a one day show). There is a special room rate ($50/night but I don't know how many nights thats valid for, nor do I know what to ask for to get the discount). Hopefully Nick can shed some light on that. |

When making arrangements at the hotel, mention the DCM rate. That stands for Die Cast Meeting. The rate is good for Friday and Saturday nights. If anybody plans to come sooner or leave later I am sure I can pull some strings and get the same rate for more days. I am looking forward catching up with all of you guys that I have met already and can't wait to meet some more of you guys! The events are going to be awesome! I will disclose more later. ps - I got the clubs approval for us of their long board table so expect a wacky game of shuffleboard using diecast cars! Below is a rough draft of the logo on what we decided as the event car. Enjoy!

If anyone from Illinois/Indiana/Ohio is planning on going and would like to get in on a carpool, please PM me. I'm going to make it wether I go alone or with a group, but a carpool would make the drive go faster and cut down travel costs. |

Iowans are definitely welcome to the event! The carpooling details are not up to me though. Hope you guys can work that out, we would love to have you all make an appearance

Some of us New England boys have talked about renting a 9-passenger van. We figured if there were 6 or 7 of us (have to leave room for luggage and trade bait!) the per person cost would be on the cheap. This could turn into a sizeable event! Are you ready for us, Nick??
