bhclark Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 (edited) Booked my flight and sent my registration in today. Guess I'll show up after all. Looks like I'll be solo this year, so I am looking for someone with a room at the Marriott looking for a roommate. I'm arriving Thursday morning. Drop me a PM or email if you are interested in sharing a room. If not, I'll sleep in the bushes, just hopefully not the same bushes Lamar visits.... UPDATE! I have lodging! No bushes for me!

Ben Bruce aka First Born Posted May 8, 2018 Share Posted May 8, 2018 My registration has been confirmed. See you in the bushes! Actually, planning to use the teardrop. Now if I can remember where the camp ground Lamar mentioned is located. Ben 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TxBuicks Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 About 175 cars and a little over 300 registrations (600 people). Including a lot of regular members from this forum. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Including a lot of regular members from this forum. So looking back at the info you provided me WAY back looks like we had 249 cars and 416 registrations for 838 people in 2009 for CO. Springs. So while down a little fairly comparable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxBuicks Posted June 12, 2018 Share Posted June 12, 2018 Don't focus too much on the numbers. You cannot measure the success or failure of a National Meet just by the numbers. It is still a Buick National Meet, the largest gathering of great Buicks and Buick enthusiasts in the country every year. It will be fun. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Stoneberg Posted June 13, 2018 Share Posted June 13, 2018 (edited) Looking at the map for the Forney museum, there is a Cannibis dispensary across the street. That would make the banquet fun.

JohnD1956 Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 11 hours ago, ted sweet said: just notice if I do the rambler ranch tour we miss the membership meeting? The Board voted to change the starting time of the membership meeting to 8 PM, although the official programs will still have the 7:30time, to try and accommodate those going to the Rambler Ranch. From what we can tell, the Rambler Ranch starts at 4:30 but is about 45 minute drive away. There's a dinner buffet style and a private collection to see. Hopefully the new start time to the meeting is enough time for those wanting to do both activities. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The extra time needed to get George ready along with other things has rendered time too short to get it ready. As much as I was looking forward to it, pressure is off. Be there Tuesday noonish. See Ya. Anyone else staying at Woodspring Suites on Briarwood? Ben Edited June 14, 2018 by Ben Bruce aka First Born (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Bruce aka First Born Posted June 14, 2018 Share Posted June 14, 2018 Question. Selling a few things from trunk allowed? Have a coupe sets of caps [41-50 [ and a couple sets of full covers for a '50. Also a good gas tank Ben Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
38Buick 80C Posted June 23, 2018 Share Posted June 23, 2018 (edited) 164 is the BCA car count I heard which for a Denver meet is a great turnout. Lots of great cars.
