If the consensus is to hold the event near me, to the extent I have time, I
will assist with finding a location, finding accommodations and planning. I
will also offer use of my garage and tools to anyone that finds themselves
in need.
I attend a VW show at the Cecil County Dragway every September and perhaps
we could join them. They have plenty of extra room and it's fun to watch
little air-cooled VWs race.

Subject: Re: This July
Guys,
I think that we should be looking at what Michael Mitchell sent us
before....
Example for 120 mile radius:
Owner Cars Owners E-mails
Curley 41 33 23
Early 76 65 44
Kelliher 3 2 1
Olenick 61 49 34
Peabody 28 22 13
From this it would make the most sense if the event was scheduled near S.
Early in Northern Del, Southern NJ.....althouth this is not stopping us from
having several meets. I guess that we should take a tally of where people
would be willing to go and when....
I also agree with John that it should not be close in timing to the
Michigan meet. I DO plan to drive there. I think that my Father will be
going. I would assume that George and Jim and going also....just to name a
few.
2 years ago Jim and I drove our Bricks 12+ hours to get there.....it was
not that bad....keep the windows open.
Maybe the meet should be May or Sept?
As for me...I think that I would find a way to be at both of the events
that Jim mentioned. Count me in for those Jim.
