Gallupn Posted March 2, 2011 Report Share Posted March 2, 2011 First, I want to wish everyone a Happy New Year as we ring-in 2011. Looking forward to this coming year, I also wanted to post-up notice of this summer's Tahoe Cruise, which is scheduled for Saturday, June 25th. Tentative plans have us departing Old Town Sacramento again and cruising up Highway 50 through the Sierras as we make our way to the lake, where we'll make a fuel stop at Chevron in Meyers and stage at the golf course next door (where members from Nevada could meet us) before heading up Hwy 89 on the west side past Emerald Bay. We currently have reservations for lunch on the deck at Sunnyside http://www.sunnyside...m?contentID=107 just south of Tahoe City. This year, I would like for us to consider conducting the cruise as a charity event for the Carroll Shelby Foundation, which most of you I'm sure are familiar with. It's an opportunity for us to give something back to Mr. Shelby (not to mention for a great cause as well). Also, as many of you may have noticed, Team Shelby is in the process of ramping-up activities in the various regions around the country. Our Pacific Region Director, Michael McGuirk, will provide more information following the Bash on how this cruise may dovetail with those efforts. So stay tuned for more details. In the meantime, mark your calendars and post-up if you're interested in joining us for a great day on the road and at the lake: 1. SVT NAJA - Concord 2. SicShelby - Modesto 3. gt350lp - Gilroy 4.

blkGT500nCA Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Hi Brian, Nice to see you there it would be my first time also! RichnPam Absolutely! Are we doing steaks this year before Grabber's again? We should! Brian, I hope you can make it this year. As we get closer to the cruise, you can work out a meet spot in Redding with some of the PNW members. I'll post you up and I look forward to seeing one of your custom show stands. Sounds great! I'll absolutely bring a stand. I now offer them with two size tops. One holds a 24x18" poster and the newer ones hold a smaller 17x11. I'm powder coating them myself now too, so turn around time is usually a couple days. I can't wait, this should be a awesome event! -Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a nice meeting at a great Italian Restaurant in Oakland. It is always nice to put a face to the screen name. Thanks again Jim for lunch, and yes I made it home just fine. Dry all the way home!

I'll get you posted up and I look forward to meeting you and your wife. Jim PS: You bring up a great idea about having a DELTA cruise for the Bay Area TS crew.

What about Tahoe? Is it Saturday stay over only? If so, where are most people booking a room? Thanks, Tom Tom, I'm going to leave from the SunValley Mall in Concord on Saturday morning with some local members from the Bay Area and cruise up to Old Town Sacto for the group departure. Some members are staying overnight Friday in Sacramento and Saturday in South Lake Tahoe. Aggie (08jester) has posted a thread of available hotels http://www.teamshelby.com/forums/index.php?/topic/65474-tahoe-cruise-friday-sat-night-accommodations/ I'll probably be staying in the Kings Beach area near our Car Show and plan on having refreshments and dinner at the Caliente http://www.calientetahoe.com/ across from the lake. I'll post up some North Shore lodging options in the next week or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Robinson Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Great, thanks for the info. I know it may seem early to ask these questions but this is my first time and I'm not familiar with how the weekend evolves. Im assuming that there might be a group coming up from the south bay (hollister, gilroy and morgan hill) to meet you in concord or is it just a free for all? Thanks, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShelbyTom and a few members from KoolStangs will be coming from that area. I am not sure what day/time they are leaving. I have a small group coming from the Livermore/Pleasanton area, we are leaving on Friday and staying at Embassy Suites in Sacramento. You are welcome to hook up with us if you want or check with ShelbyTom, he may even hook up with some of the KoolStangs members. For those that want to stay in North Shore, I will post up some hotels for you from my AAA book and will post them on the above link.... Oh, BTW it is not to early to get plans/hotels in order. Especially for Tahoe, it books up fast..... Aggie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
