I'm all for it to be at the park with you girls. Much more fun and freedom... And I didn't think Hope would drive her Vibe here. I'd love to see it but thats a LONG drive.

The GVC Michigan Super Meet will be Saturday June 26th 2004.

Sweet! I'm going to take that weekend off in advance.

trdvibe and vibechick, i'll be more than happy to pick you 2 up at the airport , J/K

i'll put in for the time off work tomorrow!

Now that the date is set- I will be there for sure- I just wont let anything come up for that day

Count me in for sure... I'll show up with a Vibe or two, just like the other meets. Have to work on some kind of caravan from southern Ohio (and surrounding areas) to drive up. That worked out well last time. Looks as though this meet is going to be BIG!

My current plans are to come over to Ohio then go up (most direct route for me).If that's the case, you guys can pick me up with Nick around Austintown!

well, i'm waiting to get the ok from work, but I don't think it'll be a prob. i think if vibechick comes too, we'll try and get our flights close so it's easier for people to shuttle us. some suggestions on nice hotels near the meet? not 5 star but decent.

Okay, that can be optional...but nice!

I can make it happen for ya...I'm killer at finding hotels!

I hope things work out for you two. It will be a pleasure to have you both there.The highlight of the meets is meeting everyone in person.

Ok, so, have we settled on a locale?I wanna start looking at hotels, but kinda need to go based on where the meet will be?

When the location is confirmed, can someone book a block of rooms in a hotel nearby. I think it wouls be cool of we could all be in the same area.Thanks

I guess we can have a convoy of Vibes/Matrixs going down the 401! I will be in Toronto the day before so I can hook up with the Ontario people. Lets organize this!!Man I can't wait!!!!! No business trips for me this time

We should be able to turn a few heads if we get a big convoy through Ont along the 401 heh. And yeah I like the everyone at the same hotel/s idea.Already got the weekend booked off, should maybe take a few extra days maybe.

The best hotel in the flint area would be the Holiday Inn Gateway Centre....there's also another Holiday Inn on the east side of town by the University but it's not that nice.

whoo hoo! got my ticket... flying into flint, mi on 6/25 arriving at 12:20 pm! leaving monday at 12:40 pm!

Quote, originally posted by trdvibe »whoo hoo! got my ticket... flying into flint, mi on 6/25 arriving at 12:20 pm! leaving monday at 12:40 pm! Hope, that is great news. Flint is 50 miles south of me and 10-15 miles north of Fenton where last years meet was held.

Someone should pick her up don't ya think? I'd say sure but at that time I'll still probably be still traveling to get there. Hopefully someone in the canada convoy will know where they are going lol, I won't.

Well bro don't look at me? I suck at following directions!! Someone help us.....

Hopefully someone in the canada convoy will know where they are going lol, I won't.thanks, but i think i'll have it covered. once it gets closer and all tickets are purchased, i can work out those details with other members. who knows, maybe i'll rent a vibe for the meet!

I am looking so forward to meeting you Hope and everyone else!This is going to be fantastic!!!!!

This map will give you a general idea.Local: State:

Damn you can't even see Montreal on that map lol!! Do I get a price for longest drive down???

only if i get one for farthest traveled! lol

Quote, originally posted by ArcsVibe »Damn you can't even see Montreal on that map lol!! Now you can.

Well if all else fails, I know the way to Fenton at least :->Been to the Flint area a few times, so know how to get there..... but I'm sure we'll have a bunch of great travellers for this one!Here's a thought for the group of us travelling down the 401/402 -- how many of us have FRS radios? (I do) Might be a great way to stay in contact for the highway portion of the trip! Oh - and we'll have to figure out a stopping / meeting point on the US side of the border, 'cuz I can pretty much guarantee it's going to take a while to get us all across.....

could someone in the Flint area please get in touch with the Holiday Inn there and see if booking a block of rooms could be worked out. I know that it really early yet, but if we do it now, then we will maybe get a bunch togetherthanks

look at all the pretty blue badges! I've never been any farther away than Detroit so I'm depending on map quest to show me the path of ritiousness. If you could post the exact street address city, zip code, that would be much appreciated

My girlfriend is a travel agent. Do you want me to check on how much it would cost her to book a group booking?

Quote, originally posted by dsegundo »My girlfriend is a travel agent. Do you want me to check on how much it would cost her to book a group booking?Good idea! Thanks...

This is going to be so much fun!!!

Arcs: If you are driving more than 423.83 mi then you can beat me That's the distance from Madison to Fenton ... did it last year, look forward to doing it again!BTW: You ever get your under-dash lights installed?

Who's got underdashg neons? It would be sweet to carry the meet out through the night because teh only thing I have to show off is my underbody kit can't see that during the day.

Hey Geo! This is what mapquest says: Total Est. Time: 9 hours, 43 minutes Total Est. Distance: 590.30 miles ( address from last years meet )Hahahahahhahahaha beat you LOL As for the neons they arrived cracked will try to get some in time for the meet.Rich: thanks for including Montreal on the map

Awwwwwwwwwwww Oh well, at least I had the title last year ... I think.

I am excited for the meet- But as far as location goes are we planing on having it at The dealership in Fenton again, or at a park?I think a good park to go to would be Island lake Park which is part of Kensington - It is right off of 96 East of Brighton- Just a suggestion

Quote, originally posted by dsegundo »My girlfriend is a travel agent. Do you want me to check on how much it would cost her to book a group booking?as it gets closer, we'll need to get a poll for how many out of towners are coming and how many rooms. i know some of us from out of town have already been talking about getting adjoining rooms or rooming together to share on some of the expenses...

Sure...I was wondering if I could get the people that are planning on going and need a room to PM me for my e-mail and then we can see what types of room to look at. Also, what location would people be at? I figured Flint because there's some stuff to do around, like golfing or such. Maybe we could have a golf outing too...anyone?

Since so many people are driving so far and there are several opinions on what to do, why not make it a 2 day event? We could do the dealership thing one day, then anyone that's interested could meet up at a park the next day. Just a thougt.

We could do the dealership thing one day, then anyone that's interested could meet up at a park the next day. Just a thougt.Good idea, but I would only be able to do a 1-day thing. I have to start heading home Sunday, need to minimize time taken off work.

I think that a 2-day event would be a good idea as well, but I also have to head home on Sunday (cause I have to be back at work on Monday). Drive up early Saturday morning... spend the day at the meet... get in some "hotel party" time in the evening and then head on home Sunday. Last year I drove up and then back home the same day I won't make that mistake again.
