Not the meet, just your trip, right?
That will probably be the only trip out of state for us this year. frown.gif

Wait so what are the "open dates" thus far?
I'm reading May 19th from the beginning.
But now Mid-July or Aug? Lol
The date is still May 19th. Those 2 have another conversation going on clogging up the thread. wink.gif

Got a hotel booked, so I'm definitely going now.

Have you ever stayed at the Starved Rock Lodge? It looks pretty nice.

Can someone sign up to bring bottled water? Oh, I'll be the recycling nut and bring a garbage bag for recycling (cans, bottles, glass, plastic, cardboard, etc.).

No I haven't. I've found the Holiday Inn Express near Peru/ Lasalle (that's right off the interstate) to be always nice. Close to food/ gas stations/ Menard's.

Tentatively looking like we’ll be in town July 13-14. Just us, the 4Runner, and a doggo. So we can have a 4Runner meet that Celica peeps are welcome to attend!

Great turnout so far!

What do you guys think for "start time"? I'd like to get everyone there at around 11, hell, even 10 if you guys want to. I can only stay till 3, so the earlier the better for me.

Special surprise for you ya guys! We'll be doing a random drawing of one person between everyone coming out and I'll be giving away a car cleaning kit, valued at $120 from Stoner Car Care.

I reached out to them when we set up the meet (along with other companies) and they were the only ones who pulled through, and they really pulled through! I thought of Stoner because I love their glass cleaner. Here's what they sent me:

We will be sending you a brand new Performance Essentials Collection, valued at $120.

This kit isn’t even available on our site yet! The collection includes; Invisible Glass, Invisible Glass Clean & Repel, Speed Bead Quick Detailer, Visible Shine Coating Wash, Wheel Cleaner, Leather Cleaner, Trim Shine Aerosol, Trim Shine Water-Based, More Shine Tire Finish, a Grit Guard and four microfiber towels, all packed in a convenient, reusable 5-gallon bucket and lid.

Awesome, good job Joe!
