Always a blast! PCA Chesapeake Region will have a caravan heading up as usual. I believe Potomac does the same.

(3 years ago Seinfeld was there, checking out the Pcar merchandise.)

Make a list and bring cash and/or checkbook.

Hi Don,
We have been going the last couple of years from the Boston area. Todd Holyoak, myself and a few other enthusiasts drive out on Friday morning after a rendivous on the Mass Pike near the 495 interchange. If I am still in the area(corporate layoff), it would be a blast to chase our tails to Hershey!!
It would be great to finally meet you.

Theres a post on the 944/924/952 board about hotels. And also I'm trying to arrange a caravan with a meeting place for New Englanders, then headed to CT finally NY and on to PA.

BE nice if we could get a nice long line of P-cars headed down.

I suppose we could put something together. Once we met at a rest stop where I91 meets I95 to hook up with folks from the north and folks from the eastern parts.

Plenty of time to think about it. I' really not the one to organize it 'cause I'm ridin' not drivin' and I'm at the mercy of my ride.

POCONO Region always has a caravan traveling down also. If the weather cooperates it is always a great time. Very large contingency of used Porshes for sale last year. Check AAA Travel book for hotels. There are many.

Try <a href="http://www.centralpaporsche.com" target="_blank">www.centralpaporsche.com</a> or <a href="http://www.centralpaporsche.org" target="_blank">www.centralpaporsche.org</a>

If that's not the right link go to <a href="http://www.pca.org" target="_blank">www.pca.org</a> and find the central PA website link. They have all the details on the Swap Meet.

Rather than drive my car from such a distance, is there a place at the Hilton or similar nearby that would allow enough room for trailer parking? I'd like to trailer it close by, then drive to the event and possibly the autox the next day.
