Canuck Posted January 3, 2010 Author Posted January 3, 2010 I received an email from the event staff yesterday regarding the registration form. They are working on the final details of the registration form and will be sending it to me soon. I will post it as soon as it is available. Regarding the accomodations, I just put together a list of people planning on attending to get an idea of the number of rooms needed. I should have the hotel details worked out tomorrow. I have 18 members thus far so I will be holding a block of 20 rooms. I will get that straightened out by tomorrow.
Canuck Posted January 7, 2010 Author Posted January 7, 2010 The Hotel will be The Dalles Inn. Some of the details are already worked out but I still need to "hold" the block of rooms at the group rate which I will do on friday when the Manager is in next. I'll post once done. In addition to the DJ in the parking lot for the cruise (possibly live band this year I'm told), the hotel also sets up a car wash bay in the parking lot for their guests during that weekend. They must like us car people.
Montecruiser Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 I cant wait. This is gonna be so much fun. I've been waiting a long time to go to an Official Meet. If its half as much fun as Ferndale mini meet last summer it will be great. Chris
mrj52 Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Gwen and I are going. Im sure it will be a great meet. Cant decide if im going take on the track. Im not ready to have that much fun-------------TIM
Shadow Gray SS Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 Glad to hear you guys are gonna make Tim. Look forward to chatting with you again.
Canuck Posted January 7, 2010 Author Posted January 7, 2010 I now have 20 club members on my list as scheduled to attend. When I organized the innaugural WM in 2004, I dreamed of hitting the 20 mark. Looks like we may just get there this year! Oddly enough, I still don't have any Oregon members on my list. You Oregon members out there going to join in the fun?!

Canuck Posted January 7, 2010 Author Posted January 7, 2010 OK, here is the member breakdown I have so far: 7 Washington 6 California 5 Alberta 1 Montana 1 New Mexico Hopefully 1 also coming from British Columbia if I can get out of going to a wedding that weekend.
Vaughn Posted January 7, 2010 Posted January 7, 2010 WOW!!! Sounding like a great turnout. Lets hope that everyone can make it.
Canuck Posted January 8, 2010 Author Posted January 8, 2010 Still more responses coming in. We now have 23 on the list. 8 Washington 6 California 5 Alberta 1 Montana 1 New Mexico 1 Oregon 1 British Columbia (I'm fairly certain I'm going now) This is FANTASTIC!
Canuck Posted January 8, 2010 Author Posted January 8, 2010 Due to the large group which may be approaching 50 people, I will likely need to make some reservations for the group at a Restaurant for dinner and awards on Saturday night. I will look at what the Dalles Inn has to offer. Any other suggestions for a restaurant? Thanks!
wallaby Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 50? I'm trying to think of a place with a table that big... Sounds like it might be picnic time at KFC!
Arsin Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 50? I'm trying to think of a place with a table that big... Sounds like it might be picnic time at KFC! We were gonna let Chris BBQ, its his specialty
Montecruiser Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 You guys are killing me. Everyone is famous for something. Mine is my Broil-B-Q Chris
Rothe Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Since I live in Oregon this is probably my best chance to make it to a meet, but at this time I can not make a commitment. My job situation is uncertain and I don't know if it will be any better in August. Please don't think a lack of response is due to a lack of interest. I have to make certain my priorities are in order before I commit.
Monteman1972 Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Hello, We plan on being there. This will be awesome.
Monteman1972 Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Help. Where did my signature picture go? I am not a computer person so I do not know how to post my signature. Can anyone help. Thanks, Jack
CrazyDavey Posted January 8, 2010 Posted January 8, 2010 Jack paste it in there from something like Photobucket just like you would in a post....
Canuck Posted January 8, 2010 Author Posted January 8, 2010 OK, with the amount of people attending this meet, we now have no excuse for not getting a web cam working, LOL. PS, my list is up to 24 members now.
