2.5 hour drive for me - not too bad. Just once I'd like to make it to one of these meets before all my MCF friends have moved on (I remain confident that I will never give up my Monte). Scheduling these things is just so dang tough for me, even though you always give us lots of notice Matt.

I want to be there and will file it under maybe. Again. I've said that about 8 or 9 times now and never follow through. I feel shame

Haha no worries man. If you can make it, great! If not, I completely understand. Just let me know as we approach the Meet date.

We are up to 30 cars registered and 54 for the Heritage Center tour. I think we'll also be increasing the number of dash plaques.

Just found this - registering TODAY! Will be a great road trip!

Lol! Now I don't feel so bad - I think I only backed out of one...but my daughter was driving the car at the time (bad idea fyi)....I am going to plan my Spring vacation for this!

Cool, I got your email, thanks! You will probably be the one traveling the furthest and I very much appreciate that. :thumbsup: Have you been up to Michigan before? Let me know if you have any questions, etc.

I haven't - it's going to be cool, I have two co-workers on my team in Southfield....an alternate site.....hoping to combine and meet them also!

Appreciate it!

Meet is in 33 days :thumbsup:

Oh yeah, I'm very familiar with Southfield.

24 days :eek:

A few important items to mention...

(1) The Meet start time is now 9:30am
(2) The Heritage Center Tour will begin at 3pm - we will leave Belle Isle at 2pm
(3) Our exact location in Belle Isle Park will be at Sunset Point - the very west tip of the Park
(4) We will now be awarding top-5 Montes
(5) We will now be handing out dash plaques and goodie bags to the first 35 Montes registered

I am sad to say I cannot make this meet :(
Been a while since I paid the MMCC crew a visit. Sometime soon I need to get out that way.

Yes it's been at least a couple years I think. Maybe something later this year will work for you. Still don't have info for the Fall Meet but I'll post when that's figured out.

Meet is tomorrow! Currently have 31 Montes registered. Refer to post #18 above for specific info for tomorrow.

Weather is showing partly cloudy early with increasing clouds later in the day. A very slight chance of rain late in the day. High of 91.
