FRIDAY/SATURDAY GURNEE DETAILS!
MAP OF THE AREA
EMERGENCY PHONE NUMBERS
(If you get lost, are running late, or need to contact the caravan folks.) Patrick Gramm 847-420-9249 or Amy Gramm 847-909-0566
SCHEDULE
Friday, June 28th
MCDONALDS CRUISE-IN
5:00 PM – 7:00 PM
Don’t feel like you need to eat the food! There will be a lot of food at the 7:00 party. Due to the popularity of this cruise spot on Friday nights, there may be limited parking or huge crowds, and we’ll need to park in the mall area. Feel free to check out the cool cars and stretch your legs at McDonalds, or use this time to check into your hotels!
Friday June 28th
CORVETTE PARTY!
7:00 PM
Directions From McDonalds
1. Take Grand Avenue (132) east. Stay in the left lane.
2. You’ll go over the toll way.
3. At the second traffic signal (there is a Burger King) turn left on Lawson Blvd.
4. Lawson makes a hard right before the stop sign; so make sure you go right.
5. Winona Lane is the 8th street down on the right hand side. You’ll see Corvettes!
Parking
We have a permit to park our Corvettes in the 18-acre park directly across the street from my house. Just past my house on the left there will be a bike path that we will use to get into the park and avoid the curbs – you’ll be shown where to go! Please park your Corvette so that we can conserve space, and line up with the other cars.
Only Corvettes will be parked in the park (better for photos), all other cars can park along Winona Lane. There is no parking on Lawson Blvd. When driving in the park, watch out for small trees when backing up.
Alcohol
All alcohol must stay on our property. There can be absolutely no alcohol across the street in the park… it’s a major no-no!
Safety
Let’s have lots of fun! But, please respect the rather low speed limit in the neighborhood, and no tire squealing or aggressive take-off’s because there are a lot of small children in the area!
Saturday June 29th

Can't ask for any better weather. Digital camera batteries are charged and ready to go.

Last estimate was about 140. But, I just stopped keeping count!
