Vet4JDC and I are going up Friday morning, hitting Adam's party Friday night, and probably staying at the Days Inn in Gettysburg.
We'll leave early Sunday morning for Hampton Roads. There are usually a bunch of Hampton Roads Corvettes that stay in Gettysburg and take the ride through the apple orchards to Carlisle and back each day. I have to wait until all the vendor spot renewals are in (July) before I can see if we can get a Vette Barn spot right over the fence in the main show field area. I have the request in and since I'm renewing the Beachcomber spot we get first chance in that area before they open it up to new vendors. |

I'm going, but haven't made hotel reservations yet. Tony are there any spots left at that hotel? It'd be nice to cruise up and back with local folks.
EDIT: Just checked the map/directions to the Days Inn etc. etc. That sounds perfect. Go up early Friday and head home early Sunday. I'm in for that. I'm going to try and make a reservation tomorrow.... is there any discounts or anything? Normally they rape you during Carlisle show time... any tricks/tips?

I don't know if Beachcombers have set up rooms yet but tell them you are with the VA Beach Corvette club. Its a nice place for a Days Inn and they treat Vette folks well.
Only issue is that there is a huge soccer tournament for kids in G-Burg the same weekend as Carlisle each year so there will be tons of soccer kids and parents at all the hotels. We usually head downtown for a few libations to get away from them. |

I registered a few weeks ago. Just register for the Fun Display and get there early. Back in against the fence that separates the fun display from the vendor area between gates 2 and 3.
That fence backs up to the row Beachcombers has a vendor spot/tent and where I'm trying to get a Barn Space for a pop up. I'll post exact locations when/if we get a Vette Barn spot. |
