E-mail on the way Art.
Teri, I can't find my SSOA flag. How much $$ do I need to send you to buy another one. I'll make sure I don't misplace this one before the event.

We don't have a replacement fee set up for the SSOA goodies. They're factored into the cost of the initial membership package.
Check your email.

C'ya there.
Posted by Northwest94Z (Member # 1320) on :
You should have one more e-mail from me. The date is locked in and I will be there. I plan to caravan down with as many people as possible and will keep checking for as many details as possible.

Art, you have mail. Posted by poSSum (Member # 119) on :
You should have a reply if I got your e-mail.
I just increased our block to 20 rooms. 7 left as of right now.

Alright! I'm done hemming and hawing about this. It's time for me to commit to this trip once and for all (assuming I don't lose a bunch of vacation time between now and then).
Art, you have yet another e-mail.
Posted by poSSum (Member # 119) on :
5 rooms left in our block.

That's pretty much how I feel...I'm getting all excited about it and it's still 9 months away! Now that I have my 2002 calendar in my office, I marked off two weeks as vacation. Now I just need to buy all the stuff I want for this trip...cha-ching!

Having made the trip for IndY2K, we can give you some tips (whether you want to hear them or not). Posted by poSSum (Member # 119) on :

Send me an e-mail please. That way I have your current address to add to the "group".
Posted by Kevin V 2002 SS (Member # 1025) on :
Man, we may be able to fill up an entire wing of the place!!!!

Yeah, curse you for already suggesting the map software with a GPS receiver I'm already up to a tidy sum without thinking about that. But I might be able to get a receiver from work. Now to Office Depot to take a look at their trip planning software.

Before you buy anything, I'll have to show you how my budget GPS from Rand McNally works.
Their TripMaker is inexpensive, but complete as far as roadside amenities, etc. I have a source for that for $4.95 if you're interested.

Hehe...too late. I already bought MS Streets & Trips from Amazon for $25 (after rebate). I can plot our route in there and then export the maps to my Pocket PC and take it with. Ideally, I want to snag one of the laptops and GPS receivers from work but they may not go for that.
Posted by Kevin V 2002 SS (Member # 1025) on :
If anybody needs a regular old hardcopy of the Kentucky State Map, I work for the KY Transportation Cabinet and can get them for free. You can just e-mail me your name and address and as I can "obtain" them I'll mail them out.
Posted by HTWLSS (Member # 117) on :
Hey Kevin, When you send your SSOA renewal, could you send me a few maps? I'll distribute them to our other members who will join the caravan (NateSS, OBSSD, etc.)
Thanks!
Posted by SS3756 (Member # 601) on :
If I bring more than one of the cars does it still count for the group? I have friends that want to come with and drive two of the cars down.
Posted by NATESS (Member # 982) on :
hey Art, did you get my emails? Posted by poSSum (Member # 119) on :

As long as they're SSOA members, they'll count.
Posted by HTWLSS (Member # 117) on :
As long as they're SSOA members with their registered SS's, they'll count.
Of course, get your other cars there so they count toward the 1000+!
We want the Fbodfather to be around for a long time.

I don't know if I am to late, but I definately want to get a room set aside for my wife and I. I will email you and you can inform me as to what to do next.

What hotel are you guys staying at? I booked at the Best Western Continental Inn for $65 a night.
Posted by Thom Mackesy (Member # 264) on :
you have mail
Posted by poSSum (Member # 119) on :
Tom & Thom ... received your e-mails. You should have replies & are on the list.
The 20 room block is now gone!!
If someone wants to start another group I can give you the information. I think 20 is about as many as I want to handle.
