[MS03 2500]

Thanks SirShop I know these can be time consuming.

[Shels Land]

[MS03 2500]

Lets do Cabelas April 4 that is the Saturday before easter.

DreamCruise is August 15, I'll plan something special 

[RonJ]

Hmmmm...April 5th is a Sunday this year and Easter is on April 12th. You might have looked at an '08 calendar??

[MS03 2500]

You are right as alway April 4 is right. Also I want to have a Midwest GTG for Dream Cruise August 12 - 15 more to come on this.

[Sirshopolot]

We need to reschedule the Zenhders GTG, that was some really good chicken.  Not much in Feb. or a spring GTG when the trees start blooming.

This years Thunder Nationals is scheduled for May 9th this year.
I won't be able to attend it due to a friends Wedding that day!! 

[Shels Land]

Kalamazoo just got a Sonic. When the weather is nicer I will look for an open weekend in April/May for a GTG 

[Flint4x4]

If nobody noticed the Sloan Summer Auto Fair - June 27-28 and Silver Lake Sand Dunes - June 26-28 are the same dates again    GM two week summer shutdown should start June 27 this year since July 4 is a Sat making Fri July 3 a paid holiday for many people. I'd really like to make it to the Dunes but to get that Friday night off I'd have to take the entire week off right before I already get 2 weeks off. If I get out early maybe,...

The car show is a good cheap way to while away a few hours the weekend before the 4^th of July.

Hey Shels, I hated Sonic when I lived in Texas. Flint area has a couple Sonics now too

FYI RED dates are from years past.  If you know the 2009 date post it if you want the GTG included in our 2009 Itinerery.

If this is the case we will have to move one or both or cancel a GTG.

If you don't like Sonic food, you don't have to eat there to attend the GTG 

[Flint4x4]

I can't change car show dates, they are just tossed out there as a suggestion.

I lived in a small Texas town and Sonic was only fast food place, it's been nearly 30 years since I ate at Sonic

Are the dates your talking about the 2008 Itinerary dates or dates for 2009?
