If folks are staying over, we might even be able to get a group rate on hotels etc... jshandra 09-21-2006, 08:39 AM Ethan, where abouts in NJ are you located? I'm in Parsippany. SIHHR 09-21-2006, 10:48 PM After speak to HHRDE about Cruiser meets. With proper planning, time in advance, it would draw a larger intrest.

The ride up route 13 to route 1 is nice! SIHHR 09-30-2006, 11:42 AM We plan to put a lot of planning behind this event. Afterall its Almost Oct and this event we would want to do March/April which is between 6 to 7 months away. Which means we have plenty of time to plan. More people will join. Plenty of time to promte it. Plus the more you see posts about it. The more intrests there will follow JESSE 09-30-2006, 11:57 AM Good deal. I will help. Never helped before, just paid any $ and show'd up. Let me know what I can help with. May be up in NYC for playoff and hopefully World Series. Gotta go clean car, meeting JoeR at car show tonight.

I hope we can have a big turn out for this Have you contacted the "events planner" yet..... She may already have this kind of stuff done for you....... the place she recommended, I think, is a great place to have a show, I have been to shows there before, plenty of room and things to do. A.C. is only about 12 miles away. Let me know if you want me to talk to her.... There is ALOT more to this than picking a date and showing up.....contracts, licenses, permit, insurance fees, parking, hotels, places to eat ( not evey restuarant will be able to accomadate 50 to 100 people at the drop of a hat), on-site vendors, sponsors, judges, clean up people, bathrooms, shall I continue...... I have done this before and I have helped set these things up, slow down alittle, I promise, it WILL come together....trust me..... SIHHR 10-02-2006, 12:12 PM John has allready contacted an events planner HHRDE 10-02-2006, 02:59 PM John has allready contacted an events planner OK...

Applenut 10-03-2006, 09:13 PM I'm in. I live in south Jersey and I could probably help. Also, don't forget Wildwood, with it's do-wop theme, HHR's would be a perfect fit. This is a good idea.....if it doesn't fit in with this AC thing....we could do a seperate event. Filed in the memory banks:thumb: Applenut 10-03-2006, 09:14 PM Might be going to Wildwood this weekend, there is "another" car show there this weekend. I'll take some pictures.....;) So...have a good turn out?:D Applenut 10-03-2006, 09:17 PM That is very interesting, Why not turn this into a Annual HHR Reunion, with scennic view ride with a show and shine like it was propose in this tread... Never name something an "Annual" until the second one! It's just bad luck!:nono: (I'm sure it's on everyone's mind though;)) SIHHR 10-03-2006, 09:28 PM I agree with that.

Applenut 10-03-2006, 10:21 PM I'm suprised the Captain Howdy has not said he would come. The last time we talked about the AC event he said he would come. I'm sure a lot of people (as stated before) will jump on a well organized event. now to be sillly.........how about Cinco de AC? SIHHR 10-03-2006, 10:40 PM Isnt that in May?

The last time we talked about the AC event he said he would come. I'll be there. I just suck at planning and have no knowledge of A.C. having never been there. I know they have casinos and a boardwalk. That's about the extent of my A.C. knowledge so I'm staying out of this thread until plans are final. I'm of no use during the planning stage. :red: :lol: jshandra 10-04-2006, 07:50 AM I'll be there. I just suck at planning and have no knowledge of A.C. having never been there.

I'm of no use during the planning stage. :red: :lol: No need to worry about the planning part. We hooked up with an event planner in AC who will be helping us put this event together. :D All we need to do is provide her will our ideas and she will take it from there. Her knowledge,contacts & ideas will help us get this event off to a good start. I believe We scored BIG on this find. :thumb: Then it will be up to US to show up.. When all is said & done it will be one hell of a meet. :banana::beer: :banana: :banana: jshandra 10-04-2006, 07:53 AM We had 125 cars for the event......;) wildwood car show (http://www.imagestation.com/album/pictures.html?id=2101252555) Hey I think I see my tent out ther in one of those pics. I happen to be down there at the same time HHRDE was down there. I was camping on the beach with the boy scouts. I gotta tell you, I'm not much of a PT fan but there were a lot of nice cars out there. I was thinking how sweet it whould be for us to have our HHR's out there. jshandra 10-05-2006, 07:58 AM Take the time and check out this great place to have our meet. This place hosts many car cruises, corvette meets and other great things to do. It’s only 12 miles out of side of AC. http://www.smithvillenj.com/events/index.htm Additional Information: Area Events, Area Attractions & Towne Events. http://www.colonialinnsmithville.com/ HHRDE 10-05-2006, 04:02 PM We had a pt show there. Perfect place for a show......;) ChevyGrlAlways 10-05-2006, 10:02 PM smithville is a nice place i was just reading my mail and wish that the meeting up in AC was sooner i got some free rooms for Nov. Applenut 10-05-2006, 10:41 PM :rof: This is true. Only problem with this car is the cupholders arent big enough for la botella de tequilla:lol: ¿usted me está embromando?

SIHHR 10-09-2006, 08:48 PM I still have not been contacted back from that Local AC dealer greyghost 10-10-2006, 12:12 AM If it is a three day event as mentioned...it gives ppl the opportunity to do any of the different events. I would believe you have a better chance of a greater attendance overall this way too. They can do all three days, or just the friday run...just the dealer meet...or whatever. Im in western Maryland..so about 6 hours away...but Id be in for at least the Saturday meet and then hit the tables baby!...Booyah! SIHHR 10-10-2006, 12:44 PM Well the Dealer would of been good for the Saturday event to Host to Car Contest's. We have other ideas for Friday night and Sunday. JESSE 10-10-2006, 12:56 PM How about an informal dinner than short cruise for friday evening. Those arriving Friday can meet for dinner (fast food, diner) then we could all take a small cruise together in the area. This could be a greet,eat and cruise! jshandra 10-10-2006, 02:42 PM FYI I have given the following dates to the event planner to see what's available at the Smithville location, I am waiting to hear back from her.

Weekend of April 13-15 4.
