The Leavenworth Drive – an annual event that draws hundreds of the finest European automobiles and enthusiasts from all over the Northwest.

The team at Northwest European is proud to present you with the Leavenworth Drive 2012, an event combining our passion for European cars with our desire to give back to the community. We are excited to bring you one of the most scenic, enjoyable and memorable drives the region has to offer. This year marks the 11th annual Leavenworth Drive, so mark your calendar now to join in with your European car - all makes, models, and years of European cars are welcome!

We are proud to announce that our Charity Spotlight this year is focused on Children’s Hospital. Ranked as one of the best children's hospitals in the country by U.S. News & World Report and Child magazines, Children's serves as the pediatric referral center for Washington, Alaska, Montana and Idaho. Founded in 1907, Children's provides excellent patient care with compassion and respect, and conducts cutting-edge pediatric research.

Join us as we celebrate European automobiles, a wonderful charity, and enjoying the good old American road...all while ending up in a small slice of Bavarian Germany – Leavenworth, Washington.

Date: Saturday, June 16, 2012
Meeting Point: Bellevue Community College – Bellevue, WA
Meeting Time: 9:00am to 10:30am
Driver's meeting: 10:30am
Leave for Leavenworth: 10:45am

Donation – There is a minimum donation of $10.00 USD per car. All proceeds will be donated to our Charity Spotlight organization.

Please come with a full tank of gas to the meeting location!

This event is not a speed or racing event, this is a casual cruise through some very scenic roads in Washington State. If you want to speed, please do it somewhere else.

***********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

Additional info on the Leavenworth Drive FB Page and Website.

Hopefully this is soon enough notice for everyone.

If you have never been on this drive it is truly an awesome event to attend and definitely not the one to skip out on.

I will update this thread as more information becomes available.

I might show up at the start, but I won't do the drive. I did it a few times years ago, but the number of idiots who show up has greatly increased.

I really enjoyed it except for the retarded amount of time it took to get out of the parking lot for the drive....IF I go again I'll be leaving early or at least getting out of the parking lot a little early. Outside of that I thought it was pretty great.

If you hadn't been holding your *ahem* out the window and had been watching the road.

I remember that. Now we won't have any rwds though.

I didn't know my car was FWD...

Staying in Leavenworth for the weekend is what made it worth doing, that part was a pretty good time. Hopefully this year there is no construction ruining the drive over.
