Perhaps the Woodward Dream Cruise again, for a select few elites
Howdy All,
Despite my absence for the last ten plus years, I still have my Marauder (although it is dead in the driveway for three years) and if there are enough of us original members left in the Dallas/Central Texas area, we could do it there!
Since 15 is such a big number for a group of car nuts who own a rare car, maybe Marauderville should be treated like a family reunion...
Any takers?
Kevin
I would love to come to the original meet site. Make it so Please!

^^^Talk is cheap. Thank you to all who have put forth ideas. There have been lots of great ideas thrown around which are fun to talk about....now Someone actually has to put the proposal together (prolly 2 or 3 someones) and get it to Mary ASAP. MV is usually all set by mid winter so unless plans are being rapidly implemented and get approved very soon there's really no point in continuing the conversation. Time has run out. As much as I'd love to I can't make the time to work on it myself, unfortunately, but I wish I could. Eric and i would make every effort to attend if something is firmed up soon. MV is always a great event. It's sad but highly doubtful that there will be one in 2017.

...OR,
Mary could just pick a spot and a hotel somewhere and we all just plan on meeting much like we did for the first one. We don't need trophies or stickers or a 3-day meal plan. We just need to show up and have fun. Fun is what we make it.
Things I don't need at a Marauderville:
1. Goodie bag. I didn't take one the last time I was there. Let's not stress a whole team of people that think they have to have a bunch of worthless trinkets in a bag with a name badge.
2. A car show. I don't need another trophy (unless you are handing out Wally's, and then I have to earn it) If you want to look under my hood, a hug or a handshake will get that done. (it does all fit under the hood now) You know me, I'm easy!
3. Escorts through towns. Small groups doing small group things with their friends is fine, but I've never felt comfortable holding up traffic for the locals.
4.Raffle. Seriously. No.
5. Let's not try to get Steve Babcock up on a stage again. I would guess if he wants to join us, we don't need to put him in front of everyone again. I respect him too much.
6. Zack. Just kidding. Zack is OK.
Well said!! I have the most fun just hanging around with the group and maybe visiting a local sight of interest.

Just for fun since i do love Iowa I tried the Mason City Hampton Inn thinking that the Clear Lake area might be nice in late Sept. for a casual Marauder get together without the bells and whistles. The best I could do was $151/ night for a block of 15 rooms. Pretty sure that price point is too steep. I can check closer to home at The Best Western in Harrisburg, PA. We've used it many times and the area has stuff to do like Harley, Gettysburg, Amish country etc. I'll be happy to make hotel arrangements and leave it at that. I agree with John that getting together is what matters most. I'll call the hotel today and see what I can do. Also, John if you have any ideas in Iowa I am off today and can do the legwork to check things out.

OK I just got off the phone with a contact in Gettysburg. He will send me a proposal later today for a hotel in Gettysburg with dates (3-4 nights) sometime from Sept through early October. I also have a call out to the hotel in Harrisburg and am waiting for a call back. If I get reasonable rates I'll sign a contract for a room block, post up the details and see if anyone wants to come. Won't even try to be MV but will be a chance to get together. i'll keep you posted.

We can stay in Waterloo IA and see John Deere tractors made. And we have a race track.
