Your not tricking me to going to Iowa....

The gang was chatting about this today at the show and Vic and I are definitely going.

I have been checking out hotels/motels and it looks as though the cheapest is about $70/night up to $120/night.

Galena is only about 15 miles away, there is a casino and lots of places to hang out.

Let me know who is interested and if we get enough people, I will see if I can call around and get a block of rooms somewhere with a group discount.

This is actually during the end of when I am planning on taking core leave and before I am going to have to work a month straight. I am about 90% in for this right now and its just for steak.

Woot log cabin here I come

I'd consider this...Could be a lot of fun...Jackie when you get the info together shoot me a PM on where your staying etc.

Deb and I will be going...

4.5hrs is a bit much for me. Ill make it out to one of these shows w u guys sooner or later lol

We aren't just going for the day, we are making a weekend out of it. C'mon, it'll be fun and what better way to get to know some members

I will know in a couple of weeks if I am going.

Ok, it's been a couple weeks.... and we are going.

Anyone else? Like to see if a group rate can be set up for hotel.

We've had a change of plans due to my new job so we are out this year again (dammit!)

Now that I have a REAL job where I actually can USE my time off, I will definitely be planning on next year!

Jeff - scope it out for us this year and see where the best hotels are and I will try for next year to get a group rate. This would be an AWESOME cruise for CAMM.

I've looked into a few hotels (that aren't already full).

This is 2 1/2weeks away.....Does anyone want to join us?

I'm still looking for a parade of CAMM cars to go with.




BTW- Congrats on new job Jackie!!!

Unfortunately I am out and really wanted to go to this one too.

Is this usually the same weekend every year? If so, and there is a group possibly going next year...I can try to get it put on the calendar in February when we start bidding out vacation for the year...

I been to this. Make sure you take thhe Tent. Its all open and it gets very out.
We stayed at a Nice B&B downtown and had a great time. If your into gambleing The river boat it right there.
Tip do not take the bus tour of Dubuque the drivers are a little crazy and at one point we thought maybe we were going to be killed. Also the bus had no working exhaust so we got a little co2 poisinging.

I not going my 300 isnt lookinng so good right now.

Eric

Well, just Tammy and I went and it was a good car show-about 400 cars were entered. Lots of great

scenery on the way there. We didn't do the "meet and greet" cruise. I had just driven 125 miles and didn't

feel like a 70 mile cruise. So, we hit both casinos and ended up $300 to the good. During the show,Tammy

won a 50/50 prize and gave it to me It's a hemi orange scat pack coat, pretty cool .

As we looked at everyone's car, i saw the funniest vanity plates. It was Iowa tags on a Neon SRT4:

OMGMOVE.....still makes me laugh.
