Thanks for all of the kind comments  We just returned from Florida Thursday afternoon and that was an expensive trip about a third to half  more than 3 years ago.

Jim, Sorry, it was a whirlwind trip.  We were there for a wedding near St. Augustine.  We had very little time to ourselves.  We took the Auto Train to Sanford and picked up my younger sister at the Orlando Airport and then on to Jacksonville.  The next day we spent time with family and at the rehearsal dinner followed by the wedding the next day.  Then on Saturday we had just enough time to visit my childhood neighborhood and a ride to Jax Beach and then on Sunday we  headed to Myrtle Beach for a day there.

I know there are members of the club in areas we stopped but our time was very booked up with very little time built in for pleasure.

  • Searsman changed the title to 2023 FGMCC Eastern Meet IMPORTANT update 05-12-23

With less than 2 weeks till our Eastern FGMCC Meet, a few last minute updates. 
1. if you are planning on traveling to the mill springs national park on Thursday the 25th, we need to be at the park by approximately 1 pm. It’s about a 20 minute drive from the host hotel. We will leave there about 1245.They are prepared to give us a tour of the interior of the complex.

Thier address is :Mill Springs National Monument 

9020 W Hwy 80

Nancy , Ky.

2. Fridays meet and greet , a prelude to the rattlesnake run, is at Cole park, Burnside Ky. We will leave host hotel at 12 noon. Restrooms are available. 
address Cole park:

7929 So. Hwy. 27 

Burnside Ky.

3. Friday nights block party , 6 pm, takes place at the Somerset Mall. Across from the host hotel

Address: Somerset mall

4150 So Hwy 27 

Sometset Ky. 
4. We are trying to obtain a police escort from the host hotel to downtown for Saturday show as this is a congested area. If not however, we are to arrive early downtown so representatives can park us together. We will leave the host hotel at 1045 Am . Travel north on US 27 , turn Rt on Monticello st. ‘Hwy 2292,mellow mushroom restaurant on rt’… several places to pull over to regroup and only 2 traffic lights. Approaching downtown from the south.. this route was suggested by Somerset Police. There will be communication between lead cars and rear cars to arrive as a group so they can park us quickly..
 

On behalf of Rob Peters club president, CK Collins vice, Bob Wiemels treasurer, Jared Richie, Eastern Meet Co-Coordinator, and myself, we thank you for your interest in attending this great FGMCC meet. And hope you have a wonderful time…

Looking forward to the Eastern meet next week! As a newbie who won’t arrive until mid afternoon Thursday, are there any scheduled plans after the Mill Springs tour or is the meet and greet at 10 AM Friday the next official gathering? Thanks in advance.😎

Hey mark, we should be finishing at the museum by 230 or 3. Then see if we can get some photos close to Cumberland lake. After that it’s dinner time for most. Then bench racing at the host hotel in the evening.. feel free to give us a message to see where we are , some will already be back at the hotel.  Jared Richey 864-940-2146 , my number 859 298 1929  Thanks . Ron…
