Default SHARKS IN THE MOUNTAINS 2017 - 928 SPECIALISTS 20th Annual 928 Event: June 2-4, 2017

Hi Everyone,

My sincere apologies for the late announcement, I have had to focus (more than usual) on some health challenges the past couple of months. I know how you guys are, but I ask you to please keep this thread about SITM and not about me. I really, really need to focus on all the fun I know we are all going to have at SITM !

Back to SITM, can you guys believe this is NUMBER 20!!!! WOW, it is hard to wrap my head around that! One thing is for sure, it has been a true honor to have known a lot of you that long! More than any other year I am so looking forward to see my 928 Family again and hopefully meet many new members of our 928 Family!

Due to the overwhelmingly positive response from last year, the 928 Swap is now a must do again this year. We encourage all 928 owners to bring any parts they wish to sell or trade. We will have a limited supply of tables available on a first come first serve basis if anyone needs one. If you want a table please make a note in the comments section of the registration form.

Asheville regional

Charlotte Douglas International

You could find a lister to help out from any of these locations if you are wanting a 928 ride.
If you are thinking car rental I would choose Charlotte.

Unfortunately we have a prior commitment with family. The 20th should be a blast! I hope you all have a wonderful time, and post plenty of pics and vids. We love you Dave and Jeannie, and wish you all the best!

Sorry, Ron. The Red Witch is still 'some assembly required.'

I'm in the Explorer this year.
