Sounds good to us. Ms. D can look into hotels for the group. When are you thinking?

I agree with this, it cuts down on a whole lot of the set up work. I was looking into setting up something (NOT AN MV!) in late september, early October, but I've got a huge exam coming up this week, that I have been studying for since May, and weekends have been too busy to do some visits. May have to delay it till next year, especially if Mr & Mrs D's work come to fruition.
Just need an excuse for a get together!
MARAUDERS get me ****!

You'll find me at the race track on the 2nd: http://racecfmp.com
2nd of September.
There you go, long weekend to boot!
Gotta keep the shirts and shirts sales though...
How can the West help? I will be ready to help with Seattle , NW, Vegas, or Dallas next year!

Following up on TooManyFords idea of a regional meet in Iowa! Location is Waterloo, IA. Dates would be 8/30/17 check-in (Wed) checking out 9/3/17 (Sun). It is the Labor day Weekend. The Hampton Inn can give us a 10 room block. The rate is $129/nite double occupancy. Iowa is a beautiful state with lots of country roads. There are a lot of things to see and do in and around Waterloo/Cedar Falls area, like John Deere factory for one. The Amana Colonies are a great cruise destination a bit further away. I'm heading straight for Taylor's Maid-rite in nearby Marshalltown for loose meat sandwiches.

John says he will be at the local track on the 2nd so that should be entertaining and worth the trip alone!

Unless I hear otherwise from interested members, I will sign the Hampton Inn contract for the 10 rooms and reservations will be on a first come first served basis. The block will close on July 28th. It's not Marauderville but it is a great place to spend some time with each other. For me it's going back home.
I'll post a new thread when everything is settled.

Confused? Why can't this meet be MV-XV?
IA is about 1000 miles from Philadelphia.
Easy day and half ride.

If you do show up for this, the race track is having Midnight Mania with racing till 1AM. It's always a good time and we can have a bon fire at the track.
Nice! Thanks John!
Although this is not MV, it should be a great time! Other than a possible tour of John Deere and John (TooManyFords) at the local racetrack (which will be awesome) I don't have any plan. But as I've mentioned earlier, there are things to do and see if people want to get together and do them! Since it doesn't look like a traditional MV will happen this year I'm thinking it's more of a regional meet. Once I sign the hotel contract I'll do a thread with all the info. Hope it works out and some of you will spend Labor day weekend in Iowa! Thanks to John for a great idea and consider saving the date.
