We were thinking about hosting a 914 tent for 914 owners to hang out. Thinking about setting up an area to crash and come togehter. Would everyone be interested in something like this.


...interested...definitely!


Please lets get some burgers and dogs on a grill...

And several tents so we can all stay dry.

The 28th is my daughter's birthday....she'll be 11 and that's why we're going to Hershey Park. Not because of some silly Porsche Swap meet. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)


In the past the swap meet has been before Hershey Park opens for the season, partially because it takes place in the parking lot. Not sure if this will change with the later date. Might be something to check out.

A 914 area would be great. After the event, everyone always seems to mention how they saw a few people but missed so many others who were there.

Anybody selling 914World hats yet? I met a few people last year just because of my 914 hat.

It is Spring break for schools in our area, so I'm sure they'll be opening the doors.

Okay, so the 28th is in my calendar.

So long as MTT does not also get moved a weekend back, I should be able to attend both events.

I'll definitely be there, though sans 914 since I have too many winter projects on it going on that won't be completed by the time the swap meet rolls around. The sti can carry more stuff anyways (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Jim, we should build up one of your cores and sell it at the swap!
I do not have my schedule for that month yet so i am not sure of my availability. So long as there is not a test the following Mon I will do all I can to make it. I wonder if I can get my car running by then (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

I wish I had a bigger place to have people come over and crash, drink, BS. Yo LEO, you gonna crash on my futon again? I need to replace a board that broke first (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif)

If you feel GUILTY about your drive, come down here & pick me up. My 14 won't be ready yet & I need a ride. Ply you full of grain products & petroleum distillates?

Kidding, I'll be there for, get this, the FIRST time. Expecting to hook up with some old timer 356 dudes. Lived here for 12 years now - this is the first year I'll be free to make it. About ready to p_ss my pants. Well, that's what 60 year old guys do when they get excited, isn't it? No Depends that weekend - hangin' loose!

I was wet cold and tired last year as we couldn't get a hotel! Met some nice people bought a few parts and had a ball. Did I win first place for who travelled the farthest?? It is a great idea to have a 914 meeting place, I would really like to meet some fellow owners and see what they have done or are planning to do. I've put the 28th on my calendar!

I'll be there with the family. Hope to see some 914's out there. I'll be checking out the early 911's as well. They are the featured car this year.
I found a nice/new hotel nearby if anyone is interested, only problem is they don't have any rooms for Saturday night. Here is the info if anyone needs a room for friday night.

Wingate Inn Harrisburg
1344 Eisenhower Blvd.
Harrisburg, PA 17111

Cheers,

Hershey Park ( it's 100th season) opens on May 4th, the weekend after the swap meet. As of now, it is not open weekends prior to May 4th, except maybe for private events and an early April preview.
There are places to stay around here but call soon. If my wife would go along with it, I'd put up a body able to give me a complete mechancial analysis and anwer all of my questions concerning my "new" '74 2.0 that I waited 30 years to buy(kids finally grown). However, that isn't flying with her so maybe I'll bump into someone who can do that for me anyway.
