I have planned another dinner get together for whomever wants to attend? Thursday the 23rd at the Bonefish grill 18355 West Bluemond rd. at 7:00 PM. 2 miles away from the Sheraton. It has a top 3 rating by Trip advisor

I would like to have a head count for reservations either PM me or post here if you would like to attend or give me a shout on my cell 517-582-0404

Pat

 

70Post and I are in. Would be great to put some faces with all the names/handles.

 

Count my Wife Melissa and I in. I have a terrible time remembering names to faces to user names. Forgive me if I can't remember names and faces.

 

Mrs. Packrat & I plan to be there.

 

Sign me up also for one spot. Plus it is on my way back to the RV campgrounds (Wisc. State Fair RV Park) that I'll be staying at on 76th Street!


Thanks Pat, would look forward to meeting you'all

 

Brother Bob and I will attend of course

Did you mention food?

Brett

 

My wife and I are in too.

 

I'll bring the "HELLO - My (ClassicOldsmobile.com) name is ______" labels to stick on our shirts....along with a marker.

Looking forward to it and thanks for setting this up.

 

Patton, great IDEA!


I look forward to seeing you again.


Could you bring some pictures of my old 70' W31? Tried to get Harry to Email me some, but no luck.


thanks,

 

I called the restaurant and reserved under the name of Classic Oldsmobile. They do not have a private area, so we will have an area with several tables. Head count is around 17 now.

Pat

 

Thanks Dave - looking forward to it as well!

Pictures????? - HA HA!! I'll see what I can get from Harry. He's a bit challenged, technology-wise, when it comes to digital pics, sending pretty much anything via E-mail (the most I've ever seen from him is an email he's forwarded occasionally), etc. I'll ask him to take some pics or get someone else there to take some and send them my way. My advice is don't hold your breath waiting on them but I'll see what can be done.

"Pictures!!???? We don't need no stinkin' pictures!"

I will be bringing the name tags and marker.

 

I may be down. That place isn't too huge. If this gains more steam we may have to rent a hall!

 

Put me down for 2 more I'll be with Joe M.

 

I should be able to make it.

 

Okay, We have someone on the ground that's giving the place a no vote because it's on the small side. So I will put it up for a vote!

Do we want a change of venue? or stick with what's in hand.

Pat

 

The packrats will be there, wherever "there" is. No preference on pur part.

 

X2. Just tell us where and when.

 

No preference for me just let me know were

 

I won't be attending the Nationals this year, still working on the bugs with the Cutlass.

Enjoy dinner and hopefully I'll be able to attend next year.

 

You and your Dad will be missed Paul

Best regards,
Brett

 

As long as they have adult beverages Pat, it doesn't matter to me - I'm sure we're coming for the company and not the cuisine.

 

I vote for change. We will attend if you change. IN my opinion Bonefish Grille are NOT GOOD and very pricey to boot. ($15.00 for a fish sandwich, for example).
Hope to see all of you there. Visit me in swap meet area. Car will be on show field.

 

The camaraderie is more important than the scenery, if the general consensus is neutral, then I would vote for a 'best fit' to the greatest population

Brett

PS, adult beverages are a definite positive!

 

I am in contact with Hairy Olds! He has some ideas for a better place to meet.

When we get a new spot to meet, I will post the particulars!

Pat

 

There is a champs americana just south of the hotel on the same main road. Its attatched to another hotel. That may be a bigger option and closer.

 

Venue has been changed to Champps same time and day as above, and YES there are adult beverages!

Any fresh commitments please let me know.

Pat

 

Looks great. Thanks to jstrits for the suggestion. Any other CO'ers? Be there - or be talked about.

 

Sounds good

 

Hey Pat. Its Mark, I just talked to you on your phone. My two sons and I will definately be there. Im pretty stoked about the whole deal. Lmao

Im not on this site that often. Im on the facebook olds pages. Mark Meyers. The OCA page and the Oldsmobile,442, W30 & Hurst Olds. Page. Anybody else on this site on there and going to meet Thursday night?

 

About 28 people have committed to dinner, some are family members of posters here. I believe that about 12 are members here.

Please let me know if you want to attend by no later than 7-21. Because I would like to let Champps have the final head count.

Pat

 

Bumping - hoping to get more CO members to attend.

It would be interesting to how know how many attendees do not know anything at all about Classic Olds. It is such a great resource - has it ever been mentioned in JWO?

 

Pat,
Mark and I will be attending. I am looking forward to seeing everyone again and making some new friends.
Ross

 

Yep, you and Mark were on the go list already! Have a safe trip up.

Pat

 

Sounds fun, wish I were going...

 

That's a good question on the JWO. I do read it, but not word for word on every article.

Do we have a good writer on classic olds maybe who can do an article about C.O. and ship it off to JWO?

Pat

 

Greg, this is going to be the closest national for a hand full of years for us.

And where are my manners! A big thanks to Hairy Olds who did the footwork on this so he deserves a big thank you from us! So THANK YOU

Pat

 

Champps is good. Count 2 of us
Tweed

 

Count me for one at Champs IF the food is good~! Other wize I am out.

 

The food is pretty good Dave. If you want to take a taste let me know this weekend I could meet you there.

 

OK I'll take you up on your invite! Call me.
