Default <<<<<INVASION 07' to G11>>>>>

To all that are interested,

"Invasion" was started last year between some guys from different boards (mostly MW members) as a caravan down to G10 held in Atlanta. This year we are wanting to do the same but with more participation. Last year was a little dissapointing (first year we tried it) but for those that rode down together we all had a blast. This year we want more to join us for a bigger convoy/cruise to Atlanta.

What is the Invasion?:

Like I said, it's a 2 day convoy/cruise to G11 held in Atlanta and is for anyone interested in joining. It's sorta like a mini power tour with some stops in bigger cities to have members meet and join in.

Where does the Invasion go through?:

The northern most crowd starts it off in Chicago on the Wednesday morning before G11. The first stop is in Indianapolis for meeting up with other members and breakfast. Afterwards we head to Louisville where we stay the night. Thursday morning we head out to Bowling Green for the next stop at the Corvette Museum. From there we run through Nashville for a bite to eat and some relaxtion followed by a gas stop in Chattanooga, then it's an easy stretch to the Marriott Thursday night.

We stop at the bigger cities for an easier location for members to meet up at.

You might ask what's the time's and locations for meeting up? Well that's being worked on as I type. We will keep everyone updated with times and spots once we get an idea of how many are interested. Last year we never had any problems meeting up with anyone. We made a phone list available for everyone just in case someone was running late.

Right now we just want to get a rough estimate on how many guys/gals would be interested in joining at this time especially the ones that will be spending the night over in Louisville. We need to know how much parking is needed along with how much everyone is willing to spend on a room. Right now we have found a hotel that is about $60 a night that's about 4 miles away from downtown. One person helping out has stayed in it and said it was great.


So post up if you're interested in this. We need to get a head count by the end of this month to hold some rooms in Louisville. It will be up to you guys to call and make the reservations. But I'll get into that a little bit later.

If anyone has any questions, please ask. I'll try and do my best to answer them.

I wish. Andy has been asking me to come down for several years now. It's just really hard for me to get away at that time of the year. I'll be there in spirit
