scaleguy 05-11-2007, 06:39 AM Toms, yeah and I am ready !!! I am going to get the pics necessary to set up the final big announcement and get the buzz started. Sponsors are doing nicely and now some of us are beginning to work the locals, our dealerships, etc to see if we can get some more trophy sponsors...I am getting there hopefully before noon Saturday, in fact I am starting to think that going up Friday afternoon might be the plan. I will let you know a definite plan by Monday. Looking forward to seeing you again, so be careful and I will see you then. I hope that your young lady is recovering well and that she has a good prognosis, give her our wishes for a full recovery...Pat

Purple Passion will be there with my son in tow. Guys weekend out.
HillsdaleHHR 07-29-2007, 06:58 AM Is Sindy coming? I thought she told me she wasn't going to be able to attend.
scaleguy 07-29-2007, 08:50 AM Thanks Z, I forgot about tcstoys HHR. Man I hope that Sindy doesn't have to cancell, we didnot get to hang out long enough when she came through on her loop...
big_gun 07-30-2007, 09:03 PM I have to say, I need to fill out the form, if I haven't sent it already (losing my mind today). With that being said, I will be competing in my "batmobile" hhr. I also will be giving away (maybe for the contest) a 3rd brake light HHR logo sticky thingy, and a "spears" kit for the HHRs. I decided to do something else with my vehicle, once I received them... :)
Got my ChevyHHR.net sticker today, and I put it on!
scaleguy 07-31-2007, 10:13 AM BG sounds great, please make sure that you have your hotel reservations made if you are planning to stay at the Howard Johnson's (the host hotel) as they are lifting the hold on room remaining in our block as of August 2. Thank you for the sponsors donation as well that is fantastic, we are nearing thirty sponsors and counting with submissions on a nearly daily basis. My big focus now is getting all of the trophies sponsored (a personal goal of mine...) Let me know if you need anything...
Pat
big_gun 07-31-2007, 08:45 PM Yeah, I won't be staying the night, it's not too bad of a drive, so I'll be driving home each night. :)
scaleguy 07-31-2007, 10:36 PM Great deal...looking forward to having you join the fun...Maybe you could help get the word out in your area, let folks know what is going on?

Everyone bring your camcorders because the games should give someone an opportunity to be on American's funniest videos...hahaha.

sweetmama 08-18-2007, 08:52 PM How many "Black' HHR's does that make now???? Would have been one more, but a choice had to be made. And I picked a new revolver :guns:
big_gun 08-18-2007, 09:39 PM ScaleGuy, is there a "Agenda" or something so we can know where things are and when they are happening for the dells weekend?

HillsdaleHHR 08-18-2007, 10:02 PM ScaleGuy, is there a "Agenda" or something so we can know where things are and when they are happening for the dells weekend?
Hope this helps you some.
Okay, let's see...Friday afternoon (the times are being left open until we see who is in on Friday) We have a mini-golf tournament at Pirate's Cove (they are providing reduced admission), then a go-cart grand prix at Riverview World Amusement park (they provided the free waterpark tickets and you can upgrade to the amusement park as well for $8.75) a cruise of about thirty miles round trip including a stop at a "junk shop" with a really cool sculpture garden (sculptures of old car parts and scrap metal), dinner at Moosejaw Pizza and brewery (they have the PT Cruisers with the Moose on top)...and finally just hangin' out at the hotel...Keep in mind no activity is required and there are tons of Dells activities including night clubs, a casino, etc.
Saturday at 9:00 am, the HHR Olympics (fun, silly games, like egg toss, creeper races, Hot Wheel races etc...) the Show and Shine 12:00 to 4:00 pm and then the cruise and cookout at Devil's Lake State Park ($5.00 fee to be in the park and anyone who knows this group knows that there will be some great dishes !!!) , return to the hotel for more hangin' out or Dells nightlife.
Sunday is a more open day to hang out and say good bye to friends new and old, and enjoy the Dells activities, shopping (we have discount coupon books for a nice outlet mall), or whatever comes to our minds...The idea was to have enough HHR related stuff to keep us involved, but to allow for free and family time too...
scaleguy 08-18-2007, 10:31 PM BG the post from Hills really is a good indicator of events, we do have some flexibility of schedule so we can give people more time to arrive. I tried to keep this set as loosely as possible, but if you have specific questions just let em know and I will try to answer them...Pat
Z-Man 08-19-2007, 12:25 AM Hey this is the same as My Agenda in post #49

Iceman567 08-20-2007, 06:47 PM Long range weather forecast looks good. Partly sunny and mid 70's. But....we know how these forecasts are. LOL! Looking forward to meeting everyone and seeing the HHRs.
TomsHHR 08-20-2007, 07:29 PM I wonder if a titanium elbow ($125,000.00 man) guides your golf shots more precisely..
TomsHHR 08-20-2007, 07:30 PM oops almost forgot..... elbow grease..
hhrboutique 08-20-2007, 09:45 PM Long range weather forecast looks good. Partly sunny and mid 70's. But....we know how these forecasts are. LOL! Looking forward to meeting everyone and seeing the HHRs.
Wow, does that sound good. We just finished a show in Alabama. 110 degree heat on the way south. Blew out a trailer tire on the way down. Then we had an electrical problem and lost our air conditioning for the weekend. This morning we got the air fixed and were 50 miles on our way to Wisconsin and blew a tire on the motor home. That was another 4 hour delay. Even with all that, we still made it almost to Kentucky. With no more problems, we should pull into the Dells sometime on Thursday. We are so looking forward to meeting all the HHR folks.
Linda and Bill
PS Autotecnica contacted us today and they just received their first shipment of their new bumper trim for the HHR. They shipped what sets just came via air to us for the Wisconsin Dells show.
scaleguy 08-21-2007, 06:37 AM Bill and Linda, be careful , we are all looking forward to you getting there. I am finalizing things and just getting ready to go,hopefuly will get most or all of Wednesday off to get ready !!! I'll be in the Dells early Thursday getting last minute details covered so we will see you there...Toms, Some of the holes at Pirate's Cove are unreal, I am going to see how late we can do the golf and the carts so we can give as many people as possible a chance to arrive before we go !!! I have been looking for a laser guided putter...gotta' love technology !!!
Goose 08-21-2007, 05:14 PM Oppps...does this mean any orders placed with HHR Boutique will not be shipped until whenever you guys get back?? :confused:
Maybe you posted it somewhere and if so I apologize but I placed an order today and was really hoping to get it by this weekend
Darn, I wish I knew this...:( I didn't find anywhere on your website that mentioned you guys would be out of town
Goose
scaleguy 08-21-2007, 05:43 PM Goose, they spend extended time out on the road so they likely have some procedure in place, in the case that they miss your post I will try to contact them, I might have a number at home, or in case they call me...I will tell them about your post...
Goose 08-21-2007, 06:21 PM Thanks scaleguy...appreciate it!
Goose
TomsHHR 08-22-2007, 12:31 AM Make it easy on yourself goose, come to the Dells and pick it up....
Goose 08-22-2007, 05:18 AM Believe it or not I just spent a week at Volk Field :guns: I'm not sure how close that is to the Dells but it can't be too far. I saw some brochures on the place in billeting. Not that I could have gotten off base but sort of ironic no? :lol:
Goose
TomsHHR 08-22-2007, 01:51 PM its just a couple hops away from VF.

Goose 08-22-2007, 07:03 PM btw Bill emailed me and all is well :thumb:
Said it should have shipped today from a warehouse in PA...yay!
Goose
scaleguy 08-23-2007, 12:08 AM I can't wait to meet Bill and Linda, I think that these folks are going to be a blast and they seem to truly have customer satisfaction as a priority. Goose it is too bad that you can't make the Dells run it is going to be a hoot !!! Good luck with the mod(s) and don't forget pictures !!! Okay allit is bed time for a couple of hours then it is drive time !!!
shaginwgn 08-23-2007, 02:04 AM I have to drive 446 miles from my house to the dells might make it barely on one tank of fuel. Gotta love the HHR:thumb:

Interesting facts found during our trips down the water slides and that is some of us have a tendency to stop around the halfway down point until father57 showed us how the proper method is used.
A pleasant walk through downtown and ice cream was enjoyed by all. That rounded out today with several people experiencing the draggin backside syndrome.
TomsHHR 08-26-2007, 07:52 AM We hope Dayton and Chris had a good trip home, they left this morning before most here arose from the dead. It was fun meeting you guys.

Tom, we had a good trip home other than early fog and the 1 hour traffic jam near Gary, In. due to flooding from Thursday/Fridays rain. We are both ready to crash. It was great to meet you as well and hope to see you again.
The Dells was a great time as were the people. Congrats to Donbb82 (Kathie) for Best of Show, Tcstoy (Tony) for People's Choice, and shaginwgn (Grey) for Best Engine and all the other winners of their classes.
Pat, you did an amazing job creating this event and deserve :bow:. Tell Rita we had a blast with her and hope to be able to do it again.
Rudy, it was great to finally meet you. I'm so glad we were able to meet up and make the trip together. You have a wonderful family.
To all the members in attendance from the mid-central region: YOU ALL ROCK :thumb: :thumb: :thumb: You made the 900+ miles all worth it!!!
Iceman567 08-26-2007, 04:08 PM First of all, it was great meeting every one:thumb: . You made me feel very welcome. Second, amazing what every one has done customizing the HHR. I came away with some ideas. Hopefully next time we meet, some of those mods will have come to fruition.
Thanks Pat and EVERYONE from Mid-America HHRs :one: I am on my way to try and get something organized up Nort' here.
Again, thanks.
Ted 'Iceman'
btw:didn't expect to bring home a trophy!
Notice new avatar.
HillsdaleHHR 08-26-2007, 04:25 PM Pat, all I can say is Thank you Thank you Thank you. Chris and I had a wonderful time. The people in attendance were great. The sponsor support was amazing. Chris and I hope to be able to attend some more of these events in the future. You all are a bunch of nuts :nuts: :nuts: :nuts: :D
Never did get to tell you guys about the casino. First thing as you walk they had a game where you could win a car. Sitting pretty up on a platform was a Black HHR :one:
lordairgtar 08-26-2007, 05:36 PM I am so bummed that I couldn't make it out to the Dells. Had prior commitments as artist in residence for two Corvette clubs this weekend. Hopefully, the next event will be easy for me to attend. I drew eight Corvettes this weekend and the ones that saw my HHR Panel (Chevy's other two-seater) loved it. Since the drawings take an hour and a half to do, I did well. I so want to draw HHRs next time.
GDZHHR 08-26-2007, 05:39 PM Sounds like a great time was had by all!:thumb:

AscensionImages 08-26-2007, 10:59 PM For those of you that don't know - I'm Pat's son.. The heavily-tattooed gentleman that spent the better part of the show climbing random objects and taking pictures of your rides. After my long and tedious ride home, I took some time to sort through what I took and here are my results... While these pictures aren't massive, some might not be 56k friendly. Since there are so many, I'm going to categorize them according to who's truck it is.
Thanks for letting me come out and shoot you guys in action. I had a lot of fun. :)
Individual shots first. Group/Show shots after.

The last of that group was my personal favorite for the day. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get anything better on the mural - the lighting suuuucked. Either way, nice truck. Very friendly to the camera. :)

scaleguy 08-26-2007, 11:32 PM The final count, 14, seems like the normal count for us and right around the record for our stuff at around 16 or so...There is a philosophy that has been adopted by many in this group, "numbers will take care of themselves, with the real importance being in the people"...Gee, maybe we have a record for door prizes, or possibly the number of people who were stuck between the connecting doors in our rooms...hahaha...
