It sure wwould be nice to start planning a outting of some kind with our fellow collectors in the spring, to meet again and say hello and meet new friends.Spring Carlise, Pa.Car Show would be nice,Hershey Antique Museum would be another place and I know everyone would enjoy it also.Spring will be here before you know it. Just a thought,Please think about it and make some suggestions, also,I want to wish EVERYONE a MERRY CHRISTMAS and A Healthy HAPPY NEW YEAR, GOD BLESS AMERICA!!

Hershey sounds good.....

and Carlisle would be doable too. I live across the Bay from NYC on the Jersey Shore.

That idea has my vote, Frank

Attended Heshey fall meet this year and was really impressed with the enormity of it. With Wiz as my guide I at least got an idea of where to go, what to see, etc. The museum is very nice and might make for a really good meeting place for anyone interested in getting together as a club or just as a group:">

Hershey/Carlisle would work for me. Good idea!

I think it's a great idea.

However...
I myself got left hanging out to dry planning this in the past, putting me in an embarrassing position with the Hershey Museum. I'll be happy to see you guys and attend, but I can't step up to bat on this one.

The Hershey museum is a great place to meet.

Some of us got together there earlier this year and had a good time. There were lots of stories to tell and then we all went out for lunch. It would be nice to get a larger crowd together.

There may be an event in GA...

Tom Long has been talking about doing an event at GMP in 2005. Open house, car show, food, etc. Something to augment Tom's Garage. From what I understand, it will become an annual event.

If we can get this together you absolutely have to bring Bernadette:">

The problem with Hershey/Carlisle for those of us who have to stay overnight is finding a room. I was at Hershey this year with the Cars and Parts Garage Tour and ended up over an hour away from Hershey - and then the old car broke so I missed all together. If we had a block of reasonable rooms near Hershey it would be a great idea and you can count me in. I miss the old FM show in September. It was a good car show and a great day for modeling.
