I'm familiar enough w/ Gettysburg that we may be able to find somewhere with a meeting room big enough to hold us. My Pontiac bud will know for sure as he's up there several times a year.

I didn't get to meet many of y'all at Cheddars but it was a great time.

Congratulations.

I am all ears on the meeting room. Again, we still may have the option of pilfering a room from OCA?

Anybody know where or what the host hotel is? The town is small from being there in 2012 for a vacation.

Joe,

Congrats on the BOC wiith your car. There are a lot of CO members with nice cars. The double up BOC with my 2 cars was something I wasn't expecting. It was great seeing you again and tell Jeff I said hello.

66-3X2 442 and COSTPENN - congrats to both on your BOC wins! And to all CO members as well.
My Alero also won a BOC and moves to Senior Preservation. Seems strange as not restored, just trying to keep it as "new" as possible. Can't believe it's already 12 years old - 1/2 an antique !

Your car is beautiful Tom! I wish my F 500 and my wifes F500 only had 16K on it but I truly believe in driving our cars.

I was hoping to meet you this year but it did not work out. I have the SP Alero that was inside this year at the show. I did sit with some of your fellow DVOC members at the banquet.

Mike, thanks!
Though not CO members, we had two other BOC wins for our chapter - the aqua 77 Starfire won in Junior and the Autumn Bronze 66 Toronado won in Senior. Overall we had 7 member's cars and all got at least a first place. The Delaware Valley Oldsmobile Club brought home some hardware !

Oldsnut71442 - your Final 500 is beautiful as well ! How many miles are on it? And you have two of them - nice! Yes, I should drive mine more - seems that most of those, now 17k, miles are going to Nationals. I put around 1400 miles this trip on it.

I was in several times inside trying to catch you by your Alero, but no luck. You had some great displays as well. Wanted to ask you how you made the large Final 500 logo with your 448 number (pic attached) - that was really cool!
