checker Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 I'm not understanding the dual Grand National & Southeastern Meet in Shelbyville. I know it's June 14-16 but what days are which? Is the GNs show one day and southwest meet another? Is there a schedule? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlier Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Pat, Thank You So Very, Very Much for posting this information.This was well above and beyond the call to answer my question and is greatly appreciated. My prior request for the name and address of the venue for the show was so I could figure out the distance from the hotel(s) to the venue.You must have been reading my mind. Thanks Again!

Steve Moskowitz Posted October 18, 2011 Author Share Posted October 18, 2011 Charlie, reading your mind would be a scary thing! The meet chairman gave us the information this morning and I asked Patty to post it...the region is telling us that rooms are filling up fast! There seems to be a huge demand for this AGN so people should make reservations early as possible. I just heard from another member that some of the rooms are pricey so make sure you ask for the AACA block! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlier Posted October 18, 2011 Share Posted October 18, 2011 Charlie, reading your mind would be a scary thing!Yes, that would be a scary thing :eek: and I make no where near enough money to pay for therapy for people who did read my mind. Then again most car people I know do have a few loose nuts and bolts or we would not love old vehicles so much.Thanks again to the Hosting Region, Patty & Yourself for getting the word out so early about the hotel situation for this event.

Guest CT Mark Posted December 23, 2011 Share Posted December 23, 2011 For those (like me) that searched this thread, all of the Shelbyville hotels are now sold out. I ended up in Tullahoma at the Holiday Inn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zulaytr Posted February 19, 2012 Share Posted February 19, 2012 (edited) When will the meeting/schedule information be added to the registration pages for both the AGN and the National Meet?

42cady Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I received my registration packet for the Shelbyville show but in the envelope was only a registration card for the Grand National show on Friday but no registration card for the National Meet on Saturday. How can I obtain a registration card for the Saturday show or who should I contact? Thanks, Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

42cady Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Thanks Steve and Lynn. What a great staff we have at National. One call to Lynn and everything was taken care of. Any time I have contacted the National staff I have found them outstanding and caring people. I am sure the dedication of the staff is why the AACA is one of the largest and most respected car club in the world. Thanks again, Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bhigdog Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 The link to the Nats meet info on the AACA registration site appears to be broken. I found it by going directly to the Celebration City region's site. BTW, they did an excellent job of posting the meet info, including the tri-fold and field lay out map...........bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

checker Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 I have an attire question. I've attended the banquets at Hershey and at Stowe where the men dressed in business casual. I also attended the banquet in Philly for the National Awards where it was black tie. What is the Grand National banquet dress code? I wasn't planning on packing a tie, unless that's appropriate.ThanksDoug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbirchmire Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Some dress in business casual with or without a tie. I will be wearing a suit on fri. night and more business casual on sat. And a few wear a nice golf shirt and a pair of dockers paints. I hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

checker Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 Somewhat less on Saturday? I'm surprised since more cars are eligible then. I'm attending mainly for Friday but since I'm there, I’m attending Saturday also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
