Thanks Lance,
Kinda wanted to stay near or in Carlisle... But That looks like a Great Hotel. Have eaten at the Boiling Springs Tavern ..Beautiful ride thru the country side. I have a Back up plan meaning I thought I'd give it a shot and try and get something near the show field. If I can't find a place I do have my back up going. I'll be there at Vetteheads regardless.
Also..Sept 23rd Boardwalk Corvettes In Ocean City NJ on the Boardwalk.
Hope to see you there again.
Thanks For the reply..

As every year I'll be the first car out (Parked on The Front Lawn Entrance) behind and following the Police Car and First up on the boardwalk at 14th Street then down the Boardwalk to somewhere around 6th or 7th street. The reason for that is I get to do the "Miss America" Wave and thank each one for coming as they leave the Boardwalk at the down Ramp at 5th Street.
That's one of my Club jobs.
Takes about 1 hour 15 Min to get all the cars off. Then When I get home I soak my Right Arm in Hot Water...L.O.L..
It's a real good place to see all 500 Corvettes from the show as they roll down the ramp. Usually has a fairly large crowd.
See you there: Mark

There's another thread here that one of the groups has an extra room or two at the Residence Inn. You might want to grab it.

I did post this in several other areas but if someone has a reserved spot and is willing to let it go for this year I would be grateful. I do have a Fun Field pass but would love to get back to the reserved area. Please IM me if you or someone you do know would be willing to do so.
Thanks!
Thanks!
Just keeping this visible! Time is closing in. Would appreciate anything you can do!

My hail Mary pass!
There must be one person on the fence here. I still have a Fun Field pass and a sizable offset for your troubles. You would still be able to have the same spot next year since the pass is already issued in your name.
Just a thought..............
Thanks again!

FYI.....If you are coming from the south on 81, DO NOT get off at the Newville exit. They are doing construction and road work just off the exit. It is not only causing a bottleneck, but it is literally a dust bowl. If you want to finish the drive on Rt. 11, get off in Shippensburg, otherwise go all the way in to Carlisle.

TOO MANY DOGS ON THE FUN FIELD AND MIDWAY!! Never seen it this bad. People everywhere with them. On the showfield, walking large dogs through the midway (not the swap meet), People next to me in the reserved section have TWO dogs with them, kids on motorized scooters riding between cars. It's a MESS this year.

Great Weather
The weather today was great! Not bad traffic on the turnpike heading west.
Looking forward to tomorrow.

What’s with putting two names on the black and white reserved spot signs? Who gets to keep the sign, you or the folks behind you? I know people like to keep those signs and put them up in a garage or basement.
Come on, $150 a spot and this.
