Hey Bill--We had the experience of a lifetime at Hershey this year since it`s was the first time I have been there. We arrived early on Tuesday and had good intentions of working our booth but wanted to find parts for our projects first. Since we had to be back in St. Louis Friday we had to leave early Thursday morning, We never did make it into the "Red" area where the booth was. We spent two days from sunrise to sunset and saw most of the Green & Orange and some of the Chocolate Area and only part of the Car Coral. It was totally overwhelming. There were 3,375 vendors, an almost impossible task to see in two days. We did speak with Dave Cavagnaro and Gary Wallace at their booths. If I`m ever able to return I will definetly plan to spend the whole week there.

I just got done unpacking and unloading the car! I can't wait until next year. I arrived on Tuesday, unloaded and stored my 62 at my friends house. Set up and vended some stuff from Wednesday through Friday. Bought some stuff. The Keystone Region did a fantastic job keeping the tradition that the late Ron Flory had started with just three of us seven years ago. The VCCA picnic/cook-out is a like a family reunion. I did my 62 on Saturday. The experience of that alone is fantastic. The drive to the show field is about a mile to mile and half and is lined with people three and four deep on both sides of the road taking pictures. Now time to load up and 31 and head out on the VCCA Cape Cod All Cylinder Tour John

Well, I was not lucky enough to spend any good time at Hershey - but I was able to make the Keystone Chapter picnic.
WHAT A GREAT TIME and to be surrounded by fellow Chevy lovers!
It was great to see John, Dave, and meet some new faces. My knowledge of old Chevys continues to grow - everyone you meet has a neat technology story about a specific year.
Now I am looking forward to the AACA February event - so I can see you guys again!

While Ollie mentioned it, we are looking for someone to give a demonstration by the VCCA at the AACA Winter Meeting Philly. We get a great chance to expose our club at this event to some new members, plus the Friday dinner at Dante and Luigi's is worth taking the trip for me. So if any of you live in the Northeast and want to give a 10-15 minute seminar please contact either myself or Dave Cavagnaro our numbers are in the G&D Ollie you forgot to mention our trip to the museum after the cookout.
