Yes, I know this is true. What happened reduced the site to a pittance of what it was in a very short time.
I am sorry I found it so close to the end...
BUT this truth does not mean I have to accept it w/o a struggle to keep it going as best as I can... hoping for at least 15 to happen... after that we'll deal with at that time.

This notion has merit, probably not for 2017 Carlisle. Too late.
However, there still several Fun Ford Weekend events that are scheduled in various parts of the country, from July to November that we could use as a basis for a MARAUDER CONGRESS.
Google Fun Ford Weekend for the schedule.
Instead of one club hosting the event the leadership at MM.Net, Modded Marauders.net and Motor City Marauders.com could select one date, make a coordinated announcement and let the memberships take it from there.
Individuals, groups or clubs could participate as they are led, informal.
The floor is open.

Sixteen (16) years of CAM Meets, Regional, and Marauderville MM Event History & Upcoming (in RED) Events is Here
I make the Carlisle experience every year because I really enjoy meeting with the group. It also fits into my teaching calendar. I am a college professor, and my "free time" is often dictated by the institution.
As for the Marauderville events: Unfortunately, I have only attend four. Again, because of my teaching schedule. I would love to go to all them. However, from September 1st through the second week in May, I am committed to the college.
To those who have the ability to go to these Marauder weekends, JUST GO! You will have a great time.
Love all the ideas, but there needs to be a proposal put together from a dedicated few that are willing to do the legwork, with feet on the ground. Read the first post here: https://www.mercurymarauder.net/foru...d.php?t=103310
Linking in with an existing event is fine. We did that for our first Marauder Roundup in Ennis, TX and with the IMOA in Indy for MV2.
We can't please or accommodate everybody. It has been proven that some will drive thousands of miles to attend or fly in.
I also have no problem suggesting we hold MV every other year. I strongly encourage and support local and regional gatherings, though those numbers are fewer and fewer each year. I applaud the Carlisle and Louisville annual gatherings for continuing to capture the Spirit of friendship and camaraderie. I do understand that some have limited vacation time and or need to select vacation time early in the year.
I know first hand that it's a fair amount of work, with communication and follow up paramount to pulling it off. Kudos to all those that have dedicated their time in years' past to make all past events possible. It comes down to a few raising their hands and sticking with it.
New Guy here since feb 2017, Why did MM members "split up." Can somebody give me a quick summary. Sounds sad that Members would split.
On a side note,
any and all Marauder members are welcome to attend the "marauder parade" this year, July 3rd." Here in Benicia California. see the video below. I will be doing all the leg work like last time, all you need to do is show up

I don't brake for curves!
The eyes may be the doorway to the soul,
but the voice is the chariot to the heavens
What about making Marauderville into a Power Tour type event??? With multiple venues and stops across multiple states...each person can pick up the tour along the way either just doing a leg or the whole thing???
I recall multiple Marauderville events in the same year once upon a time. An "official" one and an other "unofficial" one.
Thanks to Darrin @ BC Automotive:
$1800 and it was worse than when he started!

Serious consideration was made to submit a proposal for Marauderville in Seattle. I did all the legwork for Las Vegas (MV13) while in Seattle, so pretty sure putting together an event in my own backyard would be pretty easy comparatively.
I have suggested a dual coast Marauderville. One on the west coast and one on the east coast at the same time.
