I believe there are several coming just for the ride which is great. Bring it.

Working through my punch list, Dave says I always have a punch list. 100 mile drive on this past Saturday created a few more items. Hope to finish up the last few things this weekend. Close to 400 miles one way out of Virginia.

This is gonna be SOOOOO neat!

My wife and I would really like to come to this, but it doesn't look like the "new" teener will be ready for a long drive by then.

Sorry to hear, but if your 914 is down, you can still come if the other car is a Porsche. If not, next year.

Len, Dave and everyone concerned...

So sad to say that unless I plan to do a great daredevil jump across the Niagara gorge I will not be able to get into the USA for your event. It is now definite that the border will remain closed.

Happy 50th Golden anniversary to the 914 !
Marty

Thanks again Marty!

Door-prize is...a basic msds #AC-001 high flow 3.2 air filter kit. Designed for the 911 Carrera, but with a few tweaks >> sits pretty in the 9146 engine bay. This one in the pic belongs to a Certain green Six here on World

**********************LAST CALL FOR ALCOHOL********************

Tomorrow is the last day for reserving rooms at the group rate and/or notification of you attending, even if it's for the day. I cannot guarantee any PCA commemorative gifts or lunch reservations after that, as final numbers will be totaled on Wednesday. Of course, you'll be welcome to attend, even spur of the moment, but I may not have an awesome goodie bag for you.

As of today, we have 20 rooms reserved with at least 2 dozen cars coming. This is way beyond my most optimistic expectations. We've got a few original owner cars, a few wide body's, several 6's, a creamsickle, and everything in between. And I must also say the generosity of more than a dozen vendors, suppliers, and friends has been overwhelmingly and will be prominently displayed and a copy for every attendee will be given.

Dave 914, Saigon Bob and I have been putting in the time to schedule an event that's easy going, fun, safe, and interesting.

Very much looking forward to seeing everyone.

Looks like I can come!
All the Boy Scout camps have been cancelled so I will be able to join in the fun.
Trying to get my car on a dyno before this event to get a few bugs tuned out of my EFI, but the car is running driving - though idle is a tad high and hot starts are snotty.

Also hoping the "quiet" exhaust I orderd from Ben is done and on the car by the event so Amy and I can actually talk to each other in the car. :-)

Zach

Excellent.

Due to cancellation of another event, looks like I can attend. Thinking I will just come in for the day Saturday.

What time do you think Saturday drive will get underway?

That would be great. Driver's meeting at 9:30 am with us leaving hotel parking lot about 10.

Perfect. Very gentlemanly off time !

So my engine is out and I'm in the middle of replacing the main seals, etc... Trying hard to get everything done and back together to make it to this event. But it's going to be tight and a game time decision.

I'm 50 miles away so would like to make it a day trip on Saturday. Do I need to sign up and how?Click to view attachmentClick to view attachmentClick to view attachment

We'll put it on the side for you. Get to work !!

According to the lady I just spoke with, there are only 2 rooms left in the block of rooms for this event.

Zach

Do the galley/gallery plugs; I did them with the engine out, not difficult. Also the two or three behind the flywheel Click to view attachment

I'm terrified of those things....

reservations confirmed ......clerk said 'appears to be sold out'
Guess I better wash the car.

I originally booked 20 rooms never thinking they would sell out. They may mean that block.

Great to see this gathering happening Way to go Len, Dave & Bob
Box of my 914 Gear SWAG is shipping to @saigon71 Monday.

Enjoy!!!!!!

Oscar

Oscar
Thank for the contribution!!
Dave

As of today all of PA is under a 100% mask order. If you are out of your home you have to have one on. Be sure to bring your mask for this event.

Zach

Oscar:

Your generosity and willingness to help out with an event on the other side of the country is greatly appreciated.

Bob

I think I can make the drive but need to split early for the next door neighbor kid's graduation party. I'm bringing a couple of sets of brake LEDs for the raffle. One of the brake LEDs will be a new design with a RS-like round LED pattern like shown below.

Wow Jerry, these are so friggen cool and thank you so much. Glad to hear you can make the drive.

Two boxes of colorful 914 Swag on their way. A good mix, so should be enough for all attendees!!!!!

ENJOY

Oscar

These look great - thank you Jerry!

Thanks for the update @vaccarabite , that helps in making an ultimate decision if to come. My wife is "at risk" and I ain't no spring chicken!

As much as I would like to attend, an abundance of caution (Maybe too much) is keeping me away from many events.

Have Fun guys..

Your presence will be missed Tom. We’ll see you down the road. Maybe the end of September in Pigeon Forge? I have it b on my schedule.

A couple of things about this event and C-19:

The area - Checking with the PA Regional Health Dept, northeastern PA is not a hot spot and incidences are very low. E. Stroudsburg is a college town and classes haven't been in session for months. Northeastern PA is not like the recently spiking southern or southwestern U.S.

The Hotel - This nationwide chain has their own set of proprietary protocols that go beyond CDC guidelines. If there is a concern, please speak to Bonnie, the manager.

The Gathering - Everyone is required to wear masks when you are near other people, period. 95% of what we're doing will be outside and not in a confining space. Our BBQ is set up so that you WILL NOT be able to grab your own food, you will be served by one person with gloves and a mask. That goes for Friday night pizza, breakfast, a burger, whatever. All food items will be served on individual plates. I ordered numerous condiments in small packets, so if you need ketchup, pepper, mustard or a napkin, you will be given it. Hand sanitizer will be available, but as always, bring extra for yourself. Each person will be given a mask if you need one. Even though I believe the risk is very low, we want to mitigate that risk at every opportunity.

We have a number of older owners, myself and my wife included, who are coming. I believe this group that are attending get the details and have respect enough to have a good time without risking anyone's health.

So, if you have serious concerns about this issue, tell me now and please, do not come. We understand your concerns.
And if you feel that wearing a mask or adhering to a few little rules will ruin this anniversary event, PM me and do not come. We'd love to see you, but Bob, Dave, and I want you to have a good time and feel comfortable doing it.

Hello, This is John Owad here, and I am very sorry to say that I will not be attending the 914 get together. I certainly hope you all have a great time.
John

Hi John:

You will be missed, but your decision is understood & respected.

Hope to see you at an event soon.

So I just bought a 75 after a long departure from my 73. Thinking of a father son trip but currently on a lift with MC replacement needed. Trying to decide if I should go easy or normal from 914rubber. I can try to make it!

Having been through a MC change, I recommend easy.

So can I still sign up and be eligible for all the prizes and such? I definitely want to come. Will likely want to caravan if anyone is coming from DC area. I am a block from the pentagon.

Just booked a room. I'm in. If the 914 isn't ready I can still bring the 958.

Bill, Call the hotel and see if there's another group rate room available. Talk to Bonnie or Lynn at the front desk. The phone number is on the first post. You're welcome to attend.

As long as you're a 914 owner, we'd like to have you.

Yes i am.a past and present owner. Got the block rate and am.all.set. now just need to get some items ticked off the list on the car. Should be ready no sweat. Have the new mc coming tomorrow and thats the main peace of mind thing for me.
