Activity Planning - 2016 Gathering

Thursday: the main part of this day will consist of a trip north to Everett, WA so we can tour one of the Boeing facilities.  John is organizing this event; I believe he will post more soon.  Some questions for you to ponder….

1. This is the day we had penciled in for a trip to downtown Seattle, but it may be pretty tough due to logistics (mainly parking) and time.  We're thinking this excursion may be better off outside of the formal agenda if that's OK?  It is possible for part of the group to split off on our way back and go in to downtown, but wouldn't want to miss this…..

2. We've been formally invited to attend a LeMay Car Museum Cruise-In event on Thursday afternoon/evening.  DaveM originally mentioned this in the LeMay post and the museum's event coordinator would like us to attend as a club.    Here's a flier about the cruise-in:  /member_uploads/7701_7800/7722/DBZ1B_CruiseIn_Flyer_V2_(2).pdf  We'll leave Everett about  2 pm and head back to Dupont/Tacoma and then meet at LeMay for the Cruise-In, assuming this is an agreeable plan for everyone??

3. I got the contact info through Alan (Knotacare), one our members.  Alan can't make it to the gathering, but he put me in touch with a friend of his, Jack, that lives in Tacoma and happens to be a freelance photographer that does work for the museum.  He also happens to be a Corvette guy.  Jack has offered his services for our gathering in which he would take professional-quality photos of us with our cars with a good backdrop, such as Mt. Rainier.  This is Jack's line of work so we would need to pay for the services - he has not given me a price but he did say it would be less if more people signed up.  Would those that are interested please let me know via PM?  

Friday: stay close to Tacoma/DuPont this day.  We'll do the actual tour of the LeMay museum that day, plus some other close by activities such as Griot's and/or Coachworks.  Or just have some down time….

Saturday is still the Mt. Rainier drive day.  

Any feedback on any of this stuff would be great!  Thanks!

 

Any comments on any of the latest developments to the agenda?  In particular, looking for comments about the cruise-in at LeMay on Thursday night.  I will respond to the museum rep I've been talking to tomorrow that we are in for participating and ask that they reserve a spot.  Hope that's OK with everyone.  

Thanks!

Thanks, Darryl!  You've been a big help from sharing your experience and wisdom from last year's gathering.  

Every thing sounds great so far, thanks for doing all the work guys.

I just put us down for 16 spots at the Cruise-In since that's (about) the number of cars that show up on Adam's list.  Hopefully we'll have time to wash off some of the I-5 road grime from our Everett trip before we show our rides.
