I plead the 5th. Perhaps he reads all the posts. I think it was cfmoorejr. :roll: :headbang: :rofl:[/quote]


No, me thinks it twas that Ginger person bob knows and dates ... :poke:
 
I recommend the Embassy Suites in La Quinta, or the Homewood Suites in La Quinta. Both are new hotels and close to the activities.

I was assigned the job of negotiating hotel rates for us as a group but haven't done it yet. I'll get it done this week, promise!
 
I'm staying at the Embassy Suites La Quinta - Hotel & Spa cause I had a ton of hilton point, so it's free for she and me .... :thumbsup:

Well, if you got a ton.... :wink: :wink: we all could stay for free.. :poke: :P
 
I have added information to the first post in this thread. Breakfast location at 6:30 and we will be leaving there at 8:00.

Please post up what you will be bringing to snack on while in Palm Springs during the event.
 
By the way, the weather outlook for Dec. 6 in the desert is sunny, 80 degrees F (27C), and a zero % chance of rain. :driving:

This could be a great day!!! :tumbleweed:
 
Was there any hotel discounts to be had or something we need to do to get a discount?

+1 is there any official hotel for the group yet?

Also, I'm brining a box of individually packaged junk food, different flavor Gatorade, bags of ice & a mini cooler. Thank you M coupe :thumbsup: :D

I recommend the following, and this is strictly un-official:

Call either the Embassy Suites or the Homewood Suites (closest to the restaurant for the "after-drive dinner"), both are in the city of La Quinta, and tell them you are with Tradition Aviation. You should get a rate better than the AAA rate just by saying that. :thumbsup:

Also, what is our "traffic cone" status? is there enough out there that we don't need to buy anymore, or is a trip to Lowe's in order?
 
Hey for those that have a conflict with the autocross event.....I'm very sorry! We've had this event on the first Saturday of December for the past 2 years and it just happened to land on the 6th this year. We considered having it yesterday but with it being Thanksgiving weekend we thought that might be a poor choice.

Hope you understand and can still make it! The weather should be absolutely gorgeous and we have a few surprises up our sleeves! (Not even Bob knows!) :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: if you've been to any SoCal event, I promise, you'll never forget this one, especially this year :)
 
Wow Bob!!!....As always you have organized another great event & drive... :thumbsup:

Unfortunately for me, I am not sure if I will be able attend the full venue of events. I got a call from my son today, and he will be returning home from Ft. McCoy sometime this Saturday. If his flight arrives in the evening, I can possibly drive up and meet with you all at Lake Elsinore & maybe to Lake Hemet. However, if his flight arrives anytime after mid-day, I will have to miss the entire thing... :( what a bummer...
 
I've talked to Jenny Mix at Embassy Suites, and she can't offer any discount because this weekend is filling up. Guess the tamale festival is a big thing down there .... (burp) :P

$179.55 to$ 236.55 with a AAA discount - only 6 rooms available.

Thanks for the heads up, cfmoorejr. I just booked our room this morning at Embassy Suites La Quinta. They wouldn't even give me the AAA discount "due to availability". :(

But at least I got the room! 8)

No regrets on missing the autocross here, though I wish I could do both. I went to this event last year, so I know it is a "must do" event. I am a little surprised that I got invited back this year though. :oops:

There are some discount coupons from the Outlet mall if you look a bit.

We did not book the ES and have a Hilton room for $110

Se ya at the start point. We might arrive for the ride but have Bfast before we leave. 100+ miles to that location.

14 cones is what we would need total. I can bring 1 cone. Will we need to rent the tarmack? Dews z4 was going to check to see if ant were left from last year.

What will anyone be bring as a munchie dish?
