I plan on being there. I am hosting a Victoria Association meeting at the meet. If you are at the meet and have an interest in Victoria's or own one, please come and join our meeting. I do not have a time or place yet for the meeting.

Two groups from our club in the south SF Bay Area are driving up (at least 20 As, a few moderns), one group going west along the coast and then cutting inland, another group going east across the Sierra Nevada range and then north.

Are they going to meet up with the SCRG group going up from San Diego?

Not intentionally, but it looks like the last couple of days coincide.

They stepped up and offered to host. Ed Tolman said the hardest part of the job was getting people to volunteer to host national events. It's a multi year process and requires a lot of commitment.
Want one in your back yard? Get a group of 40-50 people together and host it.

I will be there to give a seminar on the New Engine, which is being donated as a raffle prize. Bring questions to the seminar and money for raffle tickets.

Can I get a rough estimate of people that may attend a get together at a pizza joint or pub? This way I can try and reserve a room for mon/tues/wed.

Thank you,

Mike

OK, I have a room reserved for 1800 on June 1st at Big John's Pizza. It is close by to the convention center. I told her from 6-12 people. Obviously all Barners are welcome, Sound Good? Anyone from the convention is welcome really, FAST, Ford Barn etc.
