I want to test the waters here a little -

I have been talking with Jibit and Mespock about doing a meet similar to what we did in NJ last month.

How does this sound?

August 13th -

Noon - 5:00pm BBQ and Picnic at a reserved forest preserve picnic area. We would have our own reserved parking and picnic area, a reserved shelter, etc. There is fishing there too.

At 5:00 we would cruise about 2 miles into Downtown Lombard for their Cruise night. They have a live band, food and a ton of heavily modified cars.

(This is located about 1 mile from North Ave and I-294)

I have talked with the Chicago area Classic Cadillac Club and they are interested in joining us - so we can expect to have 10-15 classic caddies around as well.

For out of town people I would help arrange hotel accomidations.

I would want this to be a blowout, Bigger then NJ.

How many are on board???? Im tossing this out 2 months early so people have a chance to plan, and I can get necessary reservations in place.
