Corvettes at Carlisle 2009
Well, its that time of year again to start getting a handle on how many of us want to attend this year. Apologies for the "late" post
but there was an actual possibility that we would have been in Italy during Carlisle this year but that's been pushed back.I have been speaking with the good people at the Sheraton Hotel in Harrisburg...
http://www.starwoodhotels.com/sherat..._1995_overview
...just a block away from where we used to stay at the Wyndham Gardens (by the TARGET store strip mall). Seems they have a lot more to offer...indoor and outdoor pool, full bar by the outside pool and movies by the pool during the summer weekends, they've agreed to rope off a part of their lot for Canadian Forum parking, etc, etc. They actually seemed liked they wanted our business which is alot more than can be said about the WG the past 2 years. And best of all, it looks like the rate will be around the $129 mark (not including breakfast) which is bit better than we had last year.
For some of the newbies, here is a link to the Carlisle site...

The usual deal is we leave early on the Friday morning, get to the fairgrounds around 1:00, do some snooping around and head back to the hotel around 5:00. Next day, early to the show all day (while some of the ladies go on their own shopping spree) and then head back Home on the Sunday morning. Of course, everyone is free to follow the Pack or do as they please.
At this stage, I'm just looking for some general interest of who's going this year. No obligation at this point (that will be later on in April) but just so I have an idea on how many rooms to set aside.
I'll update this post as rates and availability start to surface

Do you want to risk being passed by Lauri cause she has hers still on the car?
I just put a Powell sticker on just in case Greg shows up...
