Talking Carlisle Caravan 2010 (MD/VA/DC)

OK guys and gals its about that time. Carlisle is right around the corner, and its time to start organizing one of the best parts which is....yes thats right....the caravan.











There will be two caravans, one going up on Friday and the other early morning Saturday. Regardless of which caravan you choose there will be a caravan leader, as well as someone to keep up the rear. The pace will be set by the leader and the whom ever brings up the rear will Remember the point of a caravan is just that....the caravan. So lets drive up responsibly, safely, and not call unnecessary attention to ourselves. This is not a who has the fastest car contest. We are all responsible adults and though it is very tempting to have that heavy foot, lets do our best to stay safe, organized, and mindful of other drivers. Cops are going to be out in full force as usual so we dont want to give them a reason to hem us up.

For the friday crew, lets plan on meeting up at 10am at the park and ride right off of I-83 North. At this point the Friday caravan crew needs to decide if we want to get breakfast at IHOP like we did last year or head straight up to Carlisle from the park and ride. We must have a decision by May 6th-7th as it affects our departure and arrival time.

MEET SPOT AND DEPARTURE TIME
I-83N Exit 16B
Turn left off exit
Meet in commuter parking lot on right (Timonium light rail stop for those local)

For those going up Saturday, it is absolutely crucial that you leave on time. We must be in the fairgrounds by 10:00 AM. You will be meeting the rest of NELOC at the registration building located directly across from the fairgrounds by 9:00 AM to get your passes.

Carvan Route for both MD Caravans
Route -- I-695 to Baltimore to I-83 North. follow that to exit 41 (rt 581 west) and follow that to I-81 South. Take 81 south to exit 52 (rt 11 )SOUTH][turn right off of the exit]) and follow that to Carlisle.


Directions to Registration Bldg-

Follow the above directions to get to the Carlisle area. Use the following to get to the registration bldg.

1. RT 11 SOUTH to N. East Street, and Turn right(will see an Autozone on your left, and Gas
Station on your right). This street will turn into Clay Street.
2. Follow this road to the next stop light and turn right onto Carlisle Springs Road (RT 34)
3. Follow this to K Street and Turn Left onto K street.
4. Registration building will be on your left b4 the traffic circle.

** You will have to go around the traffic circle and enter the parking lot on the back side of the bldg***

We are looking to meet here so that we can all roll in together as a group by no later than 9 am on Saturday morning. It is required that you check in at the registration bldg first before you will be admitted into the fairgrounds. There is a window sticker which you will be given to affix to the windshield of yor car which will identify you as a show participant.


Please post up for which day you're caravaning up. If you're going up on Friday also indicate whether or not you want to have breakfast at IHOP.

***NOTE*** PLEASE FUEL UP PRIOR TO ARRIVING TO ANY CARAVAN MEETING SPOT. It can be a bit of a pain trying to get a bunch of cars in a gas station parking lot for 2-3 people having to fill up. We will be leaving the caravan meeting area to get on the road so get all gas and drinks and whatever prior to meeting everyone.

Smitty, put me down to roll with your caravan on Friday morning. I also am up for IHOP. I just changed my hotel reservation to accommodate for me to arrive on Friday and checking out Sunday morning.

See you guys Friday morning.

I'm not sure what time we're trying to roll in on Saturday morning. Hopefully BernieIS or someone will chime in but last year Trukn1 had the time set for rollin at 9:30 I believe. One important thing to know is you have to go to the registration building to get your sticker for your car and all that so its important to get there early. Just remember that when you're thinking about time to leave for Saturday morning.
