Thursday Don, this is a Chapter meet, not a National meet. Check in Thursday, leave Sunday.

Re: East coast Chapter Spring Meet

I checked with the Holiday Inn Express & Suites Friday and so far only 3 rooms have been reserved at the hotel under our special rate. If your East of the Mississippi, make plans to join us! If you've never attended a Durant event, why not make reservations and come and join the fun. You don't have to bring a Durant or even have one that is running. Many people have their cars under restoration and just don't want to bring them but they come anyway. You won't regret it! Durantonians are the nicest car people you'll ever meet. You'll make friendships that last your lifetime. Go ahead and reserve your room now, you can always cancel the reservations if something comes up and you can't make it!

Re: East coast Chapter Spring Meet

I wish Matt and I could join you guys this time, but the timing isn't good. It's just two weeks before my students' big piano recital, and I can't miss those lessons on that Thursday and Friday. I miss you all! Hope to see you at the national meet in California!

Re: East coast Chapter Spring Meet

There has been some confusion in regards to making reservations at the hotel. I've had several calls from members saying that when they called the hotel they were told that only I could make the reservation for them by the front desk personnel. I contacted the hotel and was told the same which I advised was totally wrong. I then contacted the General Manager who advised that she had notified everyone working the front desk that members can directly call the front desk to book their rooms now. Of course you can still use the link posted here on this forum and on the Chapter upcoming events. Hope to see you there.

We are planning to come to the event for part of the time and need to make some reservations. Do you have an agenda laid out for the meet?
Thanks.

It looks like we're going to have the following itinerary. Hopefully the weather will cooperate with us.

Thursday May 4th: Check in at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites, Cumberland, Maryland. Hospitality room open after 6:00 P.M.

Friday May 5th: Travel from Holiday Inn to downtown Cumberland to ride the Western Maryland scenic railroad from Cumberland to Frostburg, Maryland and back. Hospitality room open in the evening.

Saturday May 6th: Tour with cars either old or new to Oakland, Maryland from Cumberland to see the Garrett County museums in Oakland (3 museums to see one or all) One is the Garrett County Transportation museum with antique cars. Beautiful tour route from Cumberland to Oakland. Hospitality room open in the evening

Sunday May 7th: Breakfast and travel home.

We will have refreshments and snacks and have sandwiches or pizza for those coming in in the afternoon on Thursday. Meals each night are on your own, several places around the Holiday Inn to eat.

Make sure you get your cars ready for a tour! Beautiful part of the country and a great place to see.

Re: East coast Chapter Spring Meet

Time is running out for your hotel registration at the Holiday Inn Express & Suites! There are still rooms available. Even if you think you might go, go ahead and make your reservations and you can cancel up to 24 hours before the event. Let's make this a great event! Those of you who don't plan on making the California National Meet this year this is a great meet to join your fellow East Coast Durantonians and rekindle those fun times and friendships.

I wish that Mary and I could be there but health issues prevent any travel over 1 day. BUT we could see you all in Oshawa for the 2024 meet.
