There really is no time limit Dennis. I set the end of march as a date where by if we did not have at least 10 cars by then that I would cancel the event but looks like we should be able to hit that. Right now i am holding 20 rooms at the Dow, tomorrow i will speak with the manager to try and get a better rate than $89 w/AAA. Once those 20 rooms are gone, you will have to try and find your own rooms and they may not be at the dow. there are a few other hotels in lone pine but the best western did not even have 10 rooms left for the weekend we are looking at so, sooner the better.

Ask for Yolanda and tell her you're with me, Stan Dye. I own the Pizza Factory across the street from the Dow (21 years) and started the Lone Pine cruise. Maybe it'll work, maybe not

Welcome aboard Mike and Rachael.

Here's the list so far, some are not confirmed yet.

Poppy's Vette
Varmit
Z06ster
RonSS
Jimman
Frank Dupuy
Ricks-LS1
Stoessjc
rpraces2000 (2)
Corvettemike68 (2)
bearphoto (2)

If you could pm me or post here whether there will be 1 or 2 of you so I can keep a count for the Scotty's Castle tour. Thats assuming you want to do the tour! The tour is $11, $9 is over age 62 and $6 if you have a Golden Access Pass.

HOTEL INFO:

Due to this time of year being their busy season, there is no group discounts other than AAA.

So, the newer part of the hotel with AAA
Standard room: $89
Suites: $124

Old section of hotel is not AAA approved but is quite quaint i hear, those rooms are:

$68, no AAA discount.

Dow Villa, 760-876-5521, make your reservations now, they are only holding 20 rooms. Book early, for May 14 and 15th!

Old as the rest but not as slow as some - grew up in La Mirada with friends in Placentia, Yorba Linda, and Whitter (etc) - Remember cruisin' 'The Blvd' (Whitter) after hours! (before the shutdown in the late 70's....)
