An $8.00 non-refundable pre-registration may be sent to:

I'm pretty sure that I'll have the fuel pump replaced by then so count me and the RedHead in! And if work decides they need to send me out of town again, I'll fake a heart attack!

Can I ask where Brookside is? If we leave Front Royal at 10:30, it must not be too far down the Drive.

Jim Strathearn

Hey! That's a good one! I'll have to remember that for the next time I have to work on an event weekend...

Jim Strathearn

Brookside is on US-211 in Luray. We do not go directly there from Front Royal. We make a few stops inside the park first.

I added the motel info to the original post...

Looking forward to the trip once again. Hope the weather cooperates and it dosen't rain all the way up like the fall. I'm sure Jamie will be bringing her blue blanket in case of cold (cool for the rest of us) temps.

vlynnc

Glad you all are coming again!
Make sure Jamie cuts her fingernails so that you don't have holes in your upholstery......remind her we'll be hitting Rt 211 again!

Can you describe what happens the day of the cruise? Where do you end up? Do people stay over Saturday night for the drive home Sunday?

I was late and had to stay in a different hotel on the fall run. Just made a reservation. $59.99

On the morning of the cruise, we meet at the Jack Evans Used Car Lot, (registration beginning at 8:30), where we line all the vettes up in the parking lot. We have a drivers meeting around 9:30, and pull tickets for the door prizes, and then leave the lot (with a police escort through town in parade formation) around 10:30. We enter Skyline Drive, make stops at some overlooks, take a group picture at Big Stony Man outlook, and then depart the park for lunch close to Luray. Usually in the afternoon, participants are on their own to either go back in the park and explore, some go home, etc.
where we will visit in the park is still yet to be determined. We will do a few scouting runs before finalizing the plans.
Hope to see you there!
