WAZOO Garage and Gettysburg Battlefield Dinner Cruise - 22 Oct 2017 - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

QB93Z · 08-29-2017

I am proud to announce the WAZOO Garage and Gettysburg Battlefield Dinner Cruise on Sunday, October 22nd, 2017. The Cruise is presented by Jim Voter, Darrin Catts and Nelson Slinkman. We invite you to join us for a day of Corvette cruising, garage visiting, battlefield learning, fine dining and camaraderie.

We will assemble at Jim's garage in Westminster, Maryland and then take some Carroll County back roads to Nelson's garage, then cruise to Darrin's garage in Gettysburg for lunch. After lunch, Darrin will lead us on a tour of the Battlefield with stops for informative discussions. After the tour we will assembly at the Dobbin House Tavern for dinner.

The cruise is open to all Corvettes and will be a great event to have our wives join us. Participation is by reservation only, paid in advance. The cost of the buffet dinner will be $27.50 per person.

Because of the limited vehicle space at some of the locations in Gettysburg National Military Park, the Cruise will be limited to 25 Corvettes. If we get more than 25 cars applying, we will consider asking some drivers at the Battlefield portion of the trip to take a passenger. There is room for up to 50 people or more at the Dobbin House Tavern.

The Cruise is on Sunday, October 22, 2017. The agenda is:

8:30 AM Arrive at Jim's Garage
8:30 to 9:00 - Drivers Meeting and final system checks
9:00 Depart Westminster
9:00 to 10:00 Carroll County Corvette Cruise

Hello Jim,
My wife Alexis and I will be attending on the 22nd of October. Sounds like it will be a fun time. Plus my wife is a Civil War Buff, so she is looking forward to the cruise. Let me know where to send the check for the buffet.
Thanks......

I wish I were close enough to join you all. I though Darren taught me all I needed to know before buying my lift at Carlisle last week, but I see there was one particular omitted - serving lunch on your lift!

Have a safe and fun day at a great historinc site.

Sorry guys but travel plans got in the way of this one. Heading to India for a project on the 19th so will miss all the fun. Sure you all will have a great time. Hope to see the gang at Jim's this Saturday.

Regretfully will have to miss the outstanding event.

Sounds like a wonderful afternoon/evening. Unfortunately, I'll be in Florida settling on our new house. Hopefully, there will be another WMD before our relocation on 11/29.

Please let us know if you're planning to join us for this event. I need to have a minimum of 25 to keep the reservations for the banquet. I need to know if we will have enough before the end of this week. If we don't get enough, we can still hold the event just with a different dinner arrangement. Thanks and I hope to see a bunch of my WAZOO fellers (and ladies) then.
