Apologies to the Toronto 928 community, terrific folks who I've met at Adam's excellent event. I'm at risk for offending the Greater LA folks, too. But they're not coming anyway,

If anyone has not weighed in on the better date, speak up! I have to decide soon. It's a lousy decision to make - I love you all, even those with manuals.

Here's a photo of Chestertown on a foggy morning. The informal car show will be in front of the Municipal Center, lower right. There are five restaurants on Main Street. The closest, and perhaps the most appropriate, is the Odd Duck.

My wife's grandfather once owned much of the main square.

I hope to be able to make it Curt.

Any date is fine with me.

Thanks for taking the time to put this up.

Camp 928 is a go! I've settled on the weekend of June 16-18, 2017. Thanks for all the encouragement. I've updated the website, http://camp928.com.

Registration information will come later, after the board of my local PCA chapter meets. Keep me posted on whether you plan to attend. If you have ideas about the event, I'd love to hear them.

I've doomed myself to a lot of cleaning. Otherwise, I'm looking forward to seeing you.

Curt - I'm hoping to make it up with my family. Decided to replace fuel lines, PS high pressure line, PS reservoir, and some other tasks prior to making the long trip. And...decided to not yet paint the front bumper cover (what's a few more stone chips at this point...so many already there... no one will notice a few more )

Curt,

Remember - 928 Owners Club could make a contribution toward cost of memorabilia for persons attending this 'Camp 928' meet. Contact me via e-mail if you are interested, and I'll get you to the correct site for more info (if you don't already have it).

Sounds like it could be a great event.

I've been corresponding with Marc White and Jarrod Wise. I've got ideas for the memorabilia. Now that I have a date, we can get serious about the details. Thanks!

I plan to attend with my chocolate lab Lucy, if dogs are not a problem. She loves a road trip!

Very good. Not a problem for me, and the cats will be hiding in the woods anyway. Another fellow is bringing a large German Shepard.

Sounds like fun, and not far from home to boot. Just a short drive from Burlington area. I own a 1980 Euro S with significant up grades. I have been known to play on the roads in northern New York. I always travel with bottles out of the cellar to share.

I hope you can make it!

For the best wine experience, you may want to stay at nearby Friends Lake Inn or Fern Lodge. Your less sophisticated 928 buddies will be hanging out at The Hub, swilling craft beer.

Curt: I've been as far as Ft. Ticonderoga; it's beautiful, but even though I'm from the East, I have always had trouble calling four thousand feet a "mountain".

Anyway, I'm putting this on my calendar. What would be the nearest motel?
