Anyone up for a Fall meet / get together in the Chicago/Midwest area? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm Rockford or other places downstate or North of Chicago..
We had so much fun and a great turn out the first time I think we should try and improve. Just a thought.

hmmm, let me think about it (<--thinking) OK, I'm in ;D I don't care where as long as they have hotty cops Just a thought I was just thinking summer is almost over. There is a festival just outside Rockford this weekend, I could hear the music and firecrackers tonight. Then next weekend is the biggy..."On The Waterfront" that draws about 300K people over the Labor Day Weekend. The end of summer parties btw, would you really want to come to Rockford I know what you think of it Let's see who all is interested and pick a spot in the middle

Our weekends are booked almost through October already. With two rugrats in school activities plus all our "grownup" stuff we do, it doesn't take long to get swamped. But by all means feel free to go on without me!

I don't know about Chicago, but we ARE having a midwest meet in October, down in Springfield! You all should caravan down and see us.

I vote for somewhere closer to the border (IA/IL) so I don't have to drive as far. Oh and don't schedule it on the day of an Iowa game!! I have priorities.

Springfield, MO is about a 7-8 hour drive for me, and probably more like 9-10 for the Chicago area folks. Not impossible but probably not all that likely either. But it would be cool.

8 hours 9 minutes...510.67 miles for me, I have to agree with Scotty; Not impossible but probably not all that likely but it would be cool.
I did think we might have more chime in on this meet by now though. I thought maybe the southern Wisconsin folks might be up for this one.
I have not given up, it is still early but if there are no other takers, Oldsnut you are always welcome to come to Rockford and wash my car.... ;D

It would be nice to have a Fall meet.
I vote for North Chicago or as fas as Schaumburg this time, like Busse Woods (that place has become a national spot for car meets) or something like that.

Just tell me where to go (be nice now ), I'll be there... OK, Kay, get on 80 East until you hit PA then swing south and pick up the PA Turnpike (76 East) 'till you hit NJ then NJ Turnpike (95) North to Exit 6 then Rt 130 North to Rt 33 West and follow the signs to Mercer County Park. If you start driving now you should arrive in time for the NJ/PA/DE/NY meet tomorrow at 11. ;D Oh yeah, that's right, we cancelled it due to the impending tropical storm coming up the coast... Well, save these directions and watch our thread then come when we reschedule the date! ;D
