Regional meet in Sept.

[Pops]

OK guys I am going to get this party started next week. Watch for more info. We will have a good time.

The Street Rod Nationals are in Kalamazoo Sept. 14 to 16 and would be a great event to build this around. Kalamazoo is only 40 miles from here and is a easy drive. What do you guys think? Let me know and I will dig further into this and can come up with plenty of things to do from winery tours and dune rides to farm tours plus many other things. We need to know how long you want to stay. I would consider it a privelage to host this event here in South Haven. We even have a Hampton Inn here!

John, this will work as long as you don't expect to show our cars at the SRN. Strictly OLD cars there. Even my '63 is too new.

[Pops]

Kirk I know about that. I am dreaming up another idea for a car show. Stay tuned as more to follow as I can come up with a little more time after this week. We have been crazy busy here at work as everyone wants to have there stuff done for the holiday weekend.

Here is a photo of John's "natural" refrigerator, in June!-



Most likely, by September, he will have to use his 120 volt powered refrigerator.

The Street Rod Nationals North, in Kalamazoo, is a huge event. If you are like me, when a car show gets too big, you learn to appreciate the smaller shows. September in Michigan is a crap-shoot, weather-wise.

Just found out that the weekend of Sept 15 is out for us. My Sis-in-Law is getting Married.

I'm game and ready to go.

[Pops]

Ok guys heres the base plan, we go the the Street Rod Nationals on Friday and can fill in rest of the weekend by doing a wine tour, Visit Cranes Apple Farm, Go to Saugatuck and try out the dune rides and have a party at my house Sat. night. Anybody that wants to come early is welcome and we can find plenty to do. We could also go to the stock car races one night as we have a couple of good tracks near by. A visit to Gingerman Raceway is also possible. I need a head count of who is coming so I can make plans. All of these things are not a lot of money so plan on coming and have a good time.

I like sunsets, long walks on the beach, holding hands, oh...oh...wrong forum...never mind.

Need your help on this. There is only a few rooms avalable around town. It seems that weddings in South Haven in Sept. are taking all the rooms. Do you want me to continue trying to put this together or do we all go to Seymour Ind in Oct. and try for next year as I could get a block reserved if i do it a year in advance. Please let me know what you guys want me to do.

Aren't the Street Rodders taking up the rooms, too?

[pantheroc]

John, I'd like to make it out there but my folks will be in town. Next year sounds promising. But don't hold back if there are die hards out there.
