South Eastern gathering - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

kingparts · 07-23-2002, 10:29 AM

Just trying to see if there is any interest in having a gathering in the southeast area. I don't know where the best place would be. I was thinking as possibilities would be Pigeon Forge, Charlotte, Atlanta or Myrtle Beach. Meeting during a show is tuff for me becauce I have to stay at my spaces, so Maybe a none show weekend. I know we had a great time at Pigeon Forge. Maybe in the Fall when the rates are down. Any suggestions? I know Big Orange wants to beat Big71 at the go cart track.

I'm all for it too! PF or MB would be ok with me. Both are about the same distance from me.

72ChevyCheyenne · 07-23-2002, 10:54 AM

Count me in. I'm in Atlanta.

*Randy70C-10* · 07-23-2002, 11:13 AM

Myrtle Beach has some nice go cart tracks.

kingparts · 07-23-2002, 11:33 AM

Myrtle Beach is my first choice because of the tracks. I am getting tired of hearing Big Orange saying how bad he beat us.LOL Plus there are alot of other things to do also.

bigcarguy · 07-23-2002, 12:38 PM

Myrtle Beach sounds cool to me, but count me in where ever y'all decide to go.

treefrog · 07-23-2002, 12:41 PM

Pigeon Forge is fairly non-crowded in the Fall. Besides, that's about the only place you can get Tim and Big O together. TF

*Shane* · 07-23-2002, 01:36 PM

there is talk of a gathering at the NSRA Nationals the weekend of Aug. 3 & 4.

It dont matter to me,what ever ya want to do as long as it's my weekend off. Yes I am the PF go cart champ,sorry didnt tell the guy's that I'm a old dirt track driver from way back.Know matter were we go or what we do big71 needs to be there and Jim.
Are we still camping at Charlotte in Sept. We had 17 at PF so we need to beat that count.I know I'm off for the fall show at Charlotte but I havent got anything on Myrtle Beach so what ever.

DR67 · 07-23-2002, 04:45 PM

Sounds like a great idea to me, would like to meet more truck lovers. A little go-cart racing might be fun too.

*big71* · 07-23-2002, 06:12 PM

Chevyc10! · 07-23-2002, 06:21 PM

kingparts · 07-24-2002, 12:47 PM

Kinda looks loke Pigeon Forge is the overwhelming choice. Now the hard part "A Date". October or November. Everybody check their work schedules and pick a date.

Knoxville71shortbed · 07-25-2002, 07:19 AM

If y'all decide to get together in Pigeon Forge, I'll be there! Any weekend in October/November is OK for me, but I would vote for October as a preference. If you come to a conclusion, be sure to post the particulars. Hope to see everyone this fall.

kingparts · 07-25-2002, 10:23 AM

From what we have so far, November 9 looks open. Any other suggestions on dates?

*big71* · 07-27-2002, 12:55 AM

**BIG ORANGE** · 07-27-2002, 07:37 AM

I noticed that the Mountain Valley Inn is near were the Truck show was at and that was about in the middle of everything that was going on , what do yall think about that? Maybe we can get a group rate if enough will come.
