I am a firm maybe.

This could turn into a 77 Series event.

I'll be driving in on Friday morning and staying at the Comfort Inn. @AlbertoSD may be riding shotgun.

So much better than an "AW HELL NAW" I ain't coming.

I am just starting my 17 month MBA program, so I know I could potentially be very busy.

Which means a little down time in a 70 Series would be just what the doctor ordered.

You likely will be busy, I know I was. I was foolish enough to get married during the middle of the program.
Hope you'll be able to take a weekend break.

***HOT QUESTION***

BLUF: If your interested in a custom shirt for this event PM me

Details: I recently spoke with a rep from tunaskin Apparel about a separate order, but mentioned a potential order for this event. The rep advised they prefer to keep minimum orders for custom shirt to at least 40 units. within the minimum order variances in size, cut, color, and gender are authorized (i.e. 3 large silver men's long sleeve, 2 medium peach lady's short sleeve, 3 white toddler hoodie, etc..).

My initial idea is something along the lines of a sketched 70-series profile with "Seventy-Series Meet & Great" printed below. There are no sponsors this year so shirt design will be clean/uncluttered. tunaskin makes solid clothing. I've got a 3-year old whos worn his little tuna hoodie for almost two years about once a week. between toddler clothing abuse, wash cycles, water exposure the shirt has not faded, stitching is intact, logos are still perfect, and fitment is great. my shirt, which I wear less frequently, looks brand new after similar length of use. That said, I would speculate the cost of the shirt to be around $30-$40 each. below is the tunaskin site for additional details. full disclosure, I'm in no way affiliated or receive compensation from tunaskin. this event is not seeking sponsorship from tunaskin. I just really think they are a quality clothing company. If we don't get enough interest this wont be pursued.

Our goal from the beginning was to have this event grow each year and attract larger and larger crowds of 70 Series owners and while that's certainly still our goal, we have decided to return to what we refer to as the "Alabama" model (our first event). This year we will not seek sponsors in an effort to pay for catered meals and raffles. We will however put more of an emphasis on a weekend of socializing and trail riding. At least one group that is renting a cabin has volunteered to host a cookout either Friday or Saturday night. The other night we will most likely meet at a local restaurant that can accommodate our group. Hopefully this simplified format will allow everyone to have a relaxing and enjoyable weekend.
Thanks.

I just booked a single bedroom cabin (#817). I will look into bringing a towable grill to host another bbq on site.

I think and unsponsored gathering is the best way to go.

Just made reservations at the Oakridge Comfort Inn. (Remember to mention Windrock to receive a reduced room rate)

 

[jomelo]

I am planning to go up Thursday through Sunday. Will make reservations tomorrow and will try to get a larger cabin in case any last minute ppl need a pad to crash.
