Our Dog(s) sitter will not be able to help us,
so we have to take the dog's with us in our motorhome and tow the shark on a trailer.
I am looking into a close campground.

I'm coming out from Denver to race at Schenley Park, and we'll be attending the ARPCA events as well. Looking forward to it!

For any out of towners, we'll have a plan together to get you guys from your hotel/B&B to a meeting place like Eat n Park in Wexford and then to Schenley Park. Even though there will be 2000 or so cars, they are all grouped together by manufacturer. When you arrive, you will be directed to where all the Porsches are parked (Gate E, I believe). I'll be helping park the Porsches as they come in, so I'll already have a spot designated (just like the last few years) for just the 928's. I'll have the 928 OC sign there. We will also have a spot under a tree close to our cars for our group.
About 3:00 pm I'll be able to lead the group back to Wexford where you can either go back to your Hotel/B&B for a rest. Or come straight to my house with me to start the party. Hopefully anyone that stops off at their Hotel/B&B will show up later at my house.
If you are not Pre-Registered and you arrive, you will have to pay right there or will not be able to park with the Porsches. The cost will be the same or slightly higher.

Rick, I'm booked into the Hilton Garden Inn 2000 Garden View Lane. I'll be getting in Friday afternoon. Let me know if there are plans to meet up Friday evening and also for drive over on Saturday to the park. Looking forward to it. See you in a few weeks.

You will be about 1.5 miles from the Double Wide Grill on 228 that we will be meeting at on Friday Evening. We'll go over everything that night. Looking forward to seeing you.

This map shows an extra left turn (onto Seven Fields Blvd.) and some other turns closer to the Double Wide. I don't know why. If you stay on 228 heading East you just turn right at the light and you'll be there.
From Ed's original post
Friday, July 18:
• Weekend kick-off at the Double Wide restaurant in Cranberry Township PA – our local Club (ARPCA) will host the out of town clubs travelling to participate in the PVGP. This is our second annual hosting. There will be plenty of good cheer, a live band (in the works – stay tuned) at a venue right next to the hotels and turnpike just North of the City. It will also include a nice impromptu gathering of Porsches of all varieties. All local and distant sharks welcome. Starting at 5 pm to ?

Would so love to join but can't. Have to be in SF on business. And my dad would love to go too, as he has a Triumph TR6 and his shop, Cloverleaf Motorsport, races vintage in the event. And they finally got that thing running right. My 928? Running right too, and you'd hear me coming from Bedford on the turnpike.
Have a great time everyone and hope to see you at Frenzy!

Thanks Rick. That's right Steve - party at the Double Wide! No band tho, turns out the restraunt would not permit it. Still, there should be plenty of Porsches and maybe even a nice showing of Sharks!
We'll miss you Jason. See you at Frenzy. You'll hear mine coming too
