Is there a list of the winners anywhere? I can't seem to find one.

Mary will publish the list, when she & Bob get home. It's a long drive to Cape Cod, so if you will be patient, I'd say there should be a post listing the extensive array of really great prizes by tomorrow afternoon.

Ok, here's a Dom style "who won the power adder raffle" contest.

Fate is an amazing young lady, is all I'll say, except that it wasn't me. :D

the suspense is killing me on the power adder raffle... were you guys sworn to secrecy until the offical word comes out or what?

No secrets...... I'd prefer to let Mary post the official results so there are no false reports. We had the raffle about 7 hours ago so she'll need a little time to get home and maybe catch a few Zzzzzzzzz before posting.

You Sir, did pretty well on the vendor raffle as I can remember calling your name a few times. Congrats.

There were many prizes and many winners and good times had by all.

We made it home safely in record time ( about 3 hours ) and didn't leave the state. Thanks again for all those that made the event a fun time. By that I mean everyone that put many long hours setting it up AND all of the folks that came to the event from all over (it was great to meet new people and catch up with old friends) AND the folks that supported it through raffle tickets and vendor donations.

A special thanks to Mary for the amazing way she kept track of every detail. She is one sharp lady and spent countless hours making this event a success. Bravo Zulu !!

Home safe and sound, had to do some extra driving around the state but I'm back in Bmore. Nick surprisingly DIDN'T go to sleep yet... instead he ran a bunch of errands and got a hair cut...

I'm glad to be reading reports of folks making it home safe, I know some have long trips back home and wish everyone a safe trip back!

I'm sorry I missed the farewell breakfast this morning, I got caught up with some things this morning and couldn't make it in time.

This was a GREAT event and a fun time, I was happy to attend when I could and the only thing in retrospect I should've done is booked at the hotel rather than commute from home!

Me and Kelly made it home safe, made a nice stopover with relatives in Germantown Md. We Just want to say that we had a nice time meeting new friends that made us really feel at home. For those that missed the event, we hope to see yall at the next event. Our rating of the event is a 10. The organizers did a good job and deserve a STANDING OVATION! We already miss the whole group and are looking foward to the next event.

P.S. Please pray for everyones safe return home.

From the pictures, looks like a great turnout. I hope everyone gets home safe, including Defyant/Charlie who will be departing Long Island shortly, heading straight into a 2-state-long rain storm. Bahh. He'll have my kids in that car too. :depress:

We arrived home at 9pm. RF complained over half the drive. :rolleyes:


:D

An awesome time!! I can't believe we were that busy and now it's a wonderful memory!!

It's a bit ambitious for me to get the vendor raffle list complete by tomorrow afternoon since I do have to work tomorrow and I don't have all the tickets/winners with me. It will take a couple of days but I will post the Power Adder Raffle 1st, 2nd and 3rid winners tonight......after I eat some dinner.

My sincerest thank you to the MV5 Planning Team from the Capital Area Marauders, especially Team Captain MyTMerc. This event was a great success, in part, because of your dedication and your passion for our MM.Net Family.

Had a great time, thanks CAM, MM.net, and all the great folks we met up there.

Because I was practically passing his house on my ride home, I called Marty and told him of his winnings. Traffic sucked on Rte. 87 as we approached the Tappen Zee and we weren't able to hook up to pass along his prizes. Yes, his name WAS drawn for the fender badges. Someone has your paperwork, Marty.

I'm back and feeling very tired after such a trip. Everyone was great and it was really nice to finally meet some of you and I'll be back again. Special thanks to Ken for helping me find my keys at the rest stop and Haggis for putting up with me and the countless other services he provided for everyone. 1stMerc, Jerry, Marc you guys were get to have along for the ride over and the ride back. The weather was alright after Cleveland. BigDogJim.... you are a F-ing riot and it was great to meet you too. I'll never forget your story about KISS or being pulled over and telling the cop his radar was too old for your car! :lol:

Looks as though Chris and I were among the last ones home, even though we lived the closest to Hagerstown. :lol:

Arrived saftely home around 9pm Sunday evening after dropping Rachel off at home. What a weekend, tried to go to work this morning, but had to turn around as I was too tired and falling a sleep at the wheel.

I would like to thank Shaun and Mary and the rest of the MVV crew (including Rob, RazzBerry, for all his help) for putting on a fantastic Marauderville and I would like to especially thank those members that made it to MVV and renewed my faith in the MM.net family.

This is more then just a 'car club', we are one big family and I am glad to hear everyone had a great time and you are all welcome to stop by if you are ever in the area.
