Dale Schumacher: "I plan to call the hotel today and lock up a room. I will be there Thursday through Sunday morning.
"I will be at the Banquet as well and looking forward to seeing all of you again!"
OK Gordo, you are on official notice. I assume you have the vaccine and so would technically be out of reasonable excuses. And we will not accept any unreasonable ones. So there. Be there or be square. or ... Be theah o' be squa-ah.
PS Kelly's car is so fast because he has a lead foot. And is trying to keep up with Danny.
et al. I’ve made a reservation for one at the hotel. Arriving Thursday and departing Sunday morning. Planning on driving my Speedster up from Washington DC.
Alan, please add me to all the planned meetups and dinner venues. I don’t want to miss a thing.
Looking forward to meeting everyone.

What COVID measures, if any, will be in place at the restaurant?
What is the deadline for dinner payment?
I really, really want to attend but I fear it will be a daunting task to convince my wife that it would be a good idea. Right now, Michigan has the greatest increase in cases in the country. I am hoping things look more positive as I procrastinate.
"Please respect any and all mask requirements"
"I will need to have this reservation-selection list completed and submitted to Visaggio’s by May 1st"
Most will have received their shots before Carlisle ..........
I was in Florida last week where masks are optional, servers wore masks, customers did not. Hence, it's a personal decision.
Restaurants around here require that you wear masks when you are not seated at your table with food or drink. I imagine that will be pretty universal even if you are vaccinated just because it's hard to have two sets of rules enforced in a place like a restaurant. I can certainly live with that.
The virus is height sensitive

C'mon folks, y'all step up now. I'm sure @chines1 and Mike Fincher will be there. I would certainly expect some more, but maybe they're waiting on vaccinations before registering.
Be sure to get your dinner reservations in for Saturday Night too. We are looking forward to getting back to some type of normalcy!

All signed up for Thursday through Sunday morning. Took the TDr out for the first time on Sunday for a 3 hour cruise and other then a loose fuel filter quickly fixed it is ready to go after a quick service.
Heads up - going to start a group drive thread from Northern VA\DC\Maryland and Southern PA soon so we can drive together if desired up to Carlisle. I know we have at least 3-4 TDr's and a couple speedsters from this area.
I may go up Wednesday but possibly Thursday due to weather. If Thursday, I'm game.
I’m in Arlington. Like you, driving up Thursday. Looking to take country roads as much as possible? Leesburg, Frederick, Thurmont, Gettysburg? Shall we caravan?
Marshall
15 should run you right to the hotel Marshall. Not enough "freeway" to find a way around. 70 & 15 would be the busiest area but if you time it right, may not be a big deal. From Arlington, that's what I would do.
That's my issue meeting up for a caravan. I cut up 100/29, then country roads northwest until we hit 15.

Glenn and I are heading up Wednesday. Been homebound too long.

Have you gotten your car back yet? If so how do you like the exhaust note?
