ConorV70R Posted July 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 need to get separate threads going for the canada meet and the one at the gilmore museum. both are looking like i can make it and it would be cool to get a caravan of people for either of them. i know some people in the area who would most likely be willing to go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonus Lane Man Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 You guys know that You need to be a VCOA member to park with other Volvos at the Gilmore one. At least thats what it was back in 2010. (And there was like a $100 entry fee for showfield parking and banquet and something else) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDM Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Wow! I read the website of the Gilmore and it said $10 and VOCA Club $8. Then I read the VOCA website; Early Registration ends August 1, 2014 Including Dinner: Adults - $65; Children (12 and under) - $45 Without Dinner: Adults - $40; Children (12 and under) - $20 Registration includes: Admission and lunch - Gilmore Car Museum Dinner at the Holiday Inn (Optional) Tee shirt (adults only) Goodie bag Dash plaque (one per car) Raffle ticket Prizes for show winners $40 isn't too bad, but you must also pay $8 at the gate (I think). Hmmm. I'm going to call the Gilmore and see what I can find out. On another note, The weds night deal is free! I'll bring a couple of my Volvos if anyone else brings theirs we can have an unofficial VS meet... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ConorV70R Posted July 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 i would be interested in the wednesday night one. even the other one doesn't sound to bad price wise. plus it's not a far drive at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kampman Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 That's what I was thinking. I just need to see whether my passport is still any good... I forgot that my passport got destroyed in the washer a while ago, and there's no way to get a replacement before the meet. I'm out on this one.

Burn-E Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Add $45 for the VCOA membership for the Gilmore event. You can't attend unless you're a member. Some local chapters don't care but the Michigan one adheres to the rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDM Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 The Mi club posts a $12 membership fee. Is that on top of the National club fee? Wednesday nights looking better and better! I understand how the long drive can be a factor in attendance. I still haven't heard back from the MI club. How about next Weds 7/24? Let's get a Volvo group together!

DDM Posted July 17, 2014 Report Share Posted July 17, 2014 Anybody up for 7/24 at the Gilmore? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonus Lane Man Posted July 17, 2014 Report Share Posted July 17, 2014 Anybody up for 7/24 at the Gilmore? So $8 admission, $40 for attendance without dinner, and $45 for VCOA membership, that's $93 just to park with other Volvos. Unless You'll do what We did 4 years ago. Park in the parking lot, pay $10 to enter Gilmore museum and enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Dastardly Posted July 18, 2014 Report Share Posted July 18, 2014 Is this meet EVER going to happen? Kinda like Desensitized (Deimos) masturbation going on here. Shit, When this thread started I still owned a Volvo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDM Posted July 18, 2014 Report Share Posted July 18, 2014 Wednesday is FREE... Screw the Saturday gig it's too $$. This Weds 7/24 and even non Volvos can attend. Hell, last week I drove a 67 Catalina conv there. But I saw Toyota's and Mazda and BMW there but no Volvos (200 cars). Let's add the Volvos. I'll be there with two caRs.
