Try This Again

[aleroman8]

As most know, we tried this last year and it fell threw. So, I'm trying to do this again this year. I have been looking at hotels in Ocean City, MD. I have a few questions for those interested. First, which weekend would you prefer?

July, 22-24 or July, 29-31 or August, 5-7 or August, 19-21 or August, 26-28

Second, Would you prefer to be on the Boardwalk or will any hotel do? I would love to have a balcony overlooking the Boardwalk myself.

So far, I have looked into Tidelands Caribbean at 5th & Boardwalk. They have two room efficiencies for $285/nite for 4 people. Rooms can sleep 6 people. Additional people are $10/nite. Total would be $610/wkend for 6 people. That's $101.67/person.

I also looked into ParkPlace Boardwalk Hotel. Their rates for July, 22-August, 20 are $259/nite for 4 people and for August, 21-28 are $219/nite plus $10 extra per person/nite. Total for July, 22-August, 20 would be $558 or $93/person and for August, 21-28 would be $478 or $79.67/ person.

Let me know what you think about everything concerning these issues.

do any of those weekends fall on a noational holiday? i will have to look at my training calendar to see when i have a long weekend cause the only way i can make it and i definitely want to make it.

[aleroman8]

No, none of these weekends are on a holiday. I was shooting for the Fourth Of July weekend, but everything is booked. I just sent some forms to some hotels for group discounts. I'll try to see what I can pull.

[aleroman8]

I found this. Econo Lodge on 145th St. & Coastal Hwy. 2 person accomadations. $12 for each additional person per nite.

June 17-August 13 $195/nite (4ppl)$109.50 (6ppl)$81.00
August 14-August 20 $175/nite (4ppl)$99.50 (6ppl)$74.34
August 21 Sept. 4 $110/nite (4ppl)$67.00 (6ppl)$52.67

Prices are for each persons share for the weekend. I would like to act on this fast enough to be able to reserve rooms (not just this hotel, but what ever we decide on). I will be posting more prices as I search.

I know I can't go.

I'm moving in with the g/f in April, in fact I probably shouldn't be going to ASS 05

[Daytona]

I'd have to see as we get closer to the dates.

[csealy_31]

I would love to get in on this. There is a car festival in the late summer and early fall where everybody and anybody brings their hot rod, street rod, etc. and has a blast all weekend. The cops are a little lax on burnouts and stuff but of course DO NOT put up with street racing. Anyway, I have heard it's a blast. It would be great to meet each other and look at other cars too. Just an idea. The only drawback is room availability and of course price. Again just an idea to try and coordinate. If you don't like it, so be it.
All of the dates sound cool to me, you can count me in.

[aleroman8]

When is the event?

[doubleN0alero]

i'm moving to NC this summer, but i'll still be an EC alero, so I'llbe there...somebody figure this out and let me know when it is.

[jackal2000]

^^where at in NC are you moving to?

[doubleN0alero]

Fort Bragg...LOL, j/k we're looking at Charolette area. Concord, Huntersville, etc... We actually found a house in the heathers at arbor hills if you're ever heard of that..its north of charlotte.

[jackal2000]

eh never heard of it, but charlotte is like 2-2.5 hours from here

[csealy_31]

Sorry I had to find the event info.
The OC car shows are on the two following weekends.
The info can be found here... http://www.specialeventpro.com/
The first one is May 19th -22nd, and the other is Oct. 6th -9th
Neither of those are probably very good.
Also, please don't count me in on a Hotel room count. I only live 2-3 hours away and will not be staying in OC.
Thanks for starting this!

[aleroman8]

I'll try to get as much information as I can. Yes, I'm definately not bailing out of this this year. I only live about three and a half hours away. I was thinking of doing this at Myrtle Beach, but thought Ocean City is in the middle and it would be easier for those in the northeast and southeast to travel.

[jackal2000]

yeah myrtle is ideal for me as it is only 2 hours south of here but OC is cool, i should still be able to make it. im going to check my calendar today when i go into work.

[aleroman8]

Yeah, I loved Myrtle way better than Ocean City. Don't get me wrong, I love Ocean City, too. I just want the schedule to be more flexible for everyone.

[doubleN0alero]

myrtle would probably be fine for me...even more fine if i was already living in NC. i would just plan on having everybody to my house and have a big house party, but that will probably be later in the summer...I haven't exactly bought house yet

[jackal2000]

^^^that sounds cool too, count me in whenever it is :thumbsup:

[Alero03]

I dont know if this invitation is open to newbies but I would definately like to go.

[doubleN0alero]

yeah you can come...

[FantomForceCustoms02]

I'm going to OC with some friends in August. If it's the same week I can meet up with you guys.

[DansGen1Alero]

was just down there for the 4th annual oc car show
1st place in domestic class
come on guys I need some competition

Brian Stoer (part creator of these shows) is real tight with our car club Nice Dreams, I know if enough people are down there they will make a seperate class for aleros

this weekend show in salisbury "East Coast Minis" Car show
Wicomico convention center,
I'll be there, come down and see me

[jackal2000]

^^^congrats!

[aleroman8]

Congrats to you. I'm still working on this East Coast Meet. I'm trying to make it as cheap as possible for everybody, even if it cost me a little extra.

[DansGen1Alero]

thank you, damn aleroman, you got some extra cash, i'll give you a wish list. lol

[aleroman8]

I'm still willing to do this. What I need now is to know how many people are willing to show up. I had picked out Aug. 19-21st but there was nothing available. I can get 8 rooms for either weekend of Oct. 7-9 or Oct. 14-16. Each room can accomadate 4 people. So, I need to know who wants to come and which weekend so I can get a price. Kids are welcome also.

[replica9000]

So where is this meet being held again? Maybe if it's not too long of a drive i'll go.

[aleroman8]

Ocean City, MD.

[Daytona]

Weather should still be nice those weekends. Doesn't look like I can make it either weekend, though. :( I have something else planned at least 1 day each of those weekends.

[exnine@gmail.com]

Hey that's awesome I'd love to go.

[Sinatra]

Hey that sounds awsome, I'll be outa this biznitch by then. I might not need a room, my aunt lives around that area. But More than likley I can make it.

[Redog]

[burg03]
