The GMMG Registry Forum

My understanding with Bud was that all GMMG's (including BB's) would be able to park together.



I'm working on a clarification on this with Bud. All GMMG can park together.



More to follow.



BB's are most welcome.

I'd have to say BBQ grills are frowned



Berger Banner ...l. I know Frank SS 57 has one



Does anyone have a GMMg Banner?



Cooler with water



Please add to the list & if you can bring something post it.



What else?????



What do you think about dinner somewhere Friday evening with other GMMG owners?



I expect Matt Berger & Scott Settlemire will be around + others.



If anyone can track Matt Murphy down please invite him. I haven't talked to him in years.



Jim



Friday Night is the dinner and charity auction. I'm not leaving until Sunday morning, so a Saturday night dinner with anyone staying around would be great.



I'll be bringing the car show standard equipment: Sunblock, folding chairs & table, coolers, 10x10 tent. (Not sure how they feel about grills?)



I'd have to say BBQ grills are frowned upon. I wouldn't want greasy smoke blowing towards the interior or exterior of my car....



I hear you there Aaron. For some reason I was thinking out by truck parking/picnic area.



So Anyone even going to this?? Buhler? Buhler? chirp, chirp(crickets)



Based on the parking sitch- Display vs. Entry moving vehicle hassle, Tent/display apathy, I'm really starting to not feel it.

Jim,





Some of the communications are getting a little confused. Bob wanted to do several things and I tried to work with him. That seems to have gotten very confused. Bob is going to have to be a little flexible with his 3 cars. I told him I would do the best I can. I have an entire show to set up. All the GMMG cars will be parked in he same location on the Showfield. I said that from the very beginning. Right now people are asking me questions I can't answer. We don't know how many cars are coming so it's hard to do any arranging. I still have not heard if you are going to have a tent, this is another loose end. Everyone wants their car inside, why doesn't GMMG rent one of the buildings But than again they may not all fit. We get back to how many cars are coming.



from Jim................ Will someone out east take the lead on this & work with Bud & registered cars?

Sorry, but I beg to differ with the above. I tried to do 1 thing and offered several solutions. I was told, since my car was a FireBird,

1. The car would not be entered in the GMMG catagory number we were told to use for registration.

2. The car would need to go to the Firebird Section and when the judging was done I could move to the GMMG display(Sure all the GMMG's will be parked together, after I move back and forth).

3. Based on the map on the site I requested certain areas to keep my cars together close to the display. My mistake for not realizing the posted map was for the event 3 years ago. Told it's not possible to have 3 cars together.



Tried to take the lead for getting a tent(From the East- The Middle East), looks like that's not going to happen. Good luck getting a building.(Hey we're having a big reunion for your cars, it will be the highlight of our show, btw were not going to do anything for you other than throw you in the middle of a dirt field- great hosting)



I only wanted to go to the show and hang out near the GMMG display with my 3 cars(1 Thing), wasn't interested in who gets the biggest trophy, didn't realize I was asking too much. Based on the Above, I'm out. Have fun, be sure to take pictures and post up about the event. Maybe see y'all next year. Jim, you want my reservation at the Hotel? LMK by tomorrow before I cancel it.

I planned to share a room with Bob B (BB #30) & he has cancelled.



I am taking Bob's room @ Holiday Inn RSK - $109/night.



Anyone want to split a room?



I plan to fly in to Baltimore on the 25th & rent a car.

Subject: RE: 2015 Camaro Nationals Reservations



I have made a reservation for you under confirmation number 69068187 for the Camaro Show on June 25th –June 28th. Thank you.



THIS RESERVATION IS STILL OPEN IF ANYONE WANTS TO ASSUME IT- It is the show sponsored Holiday Inn.

I'll take the room. Jim Smith



I called Holiday Inn. My flight & car rental are booked.



If anyone wants to share a room we can split the cost.

Hi guys:



Seeing as I’m flying in & renting a car on June 25th I really could use some local help before I arrive.



If you have anything to bring & set up it is appreciated.



Your ideas please................. This will be the first attempt by the GMMG Registry & I know we will learn a lot for future events.



10x10 Tent to keep sun off - Ben - SS85



Chairs - Ben SS85



Water & cooler



GMMG large sign or banner? -



Frank said he would being his Berger Banner. OK, Frank?



Rope or bungees to secure things.



Bring anything GMMG related including Sign Boards for your cars.



I could use a hand throughout the event at the table registering, counting votes & manning the table.



GMMG’s will be able to park together. Not sure where – we will know when we arrive.



Please let me know if you can bring anything to help out.



I will be handing out our own little GMMG Registration envelope, misc. information, ballot to vote for your Top 5 GMMG’s & maybe a dash plaques.



I will bring along a few GMMG shirts, hats, license plates, GMMG Window Stickers but will be limited for baggage on the plane.



I’m working on a TOP 5 Plaque for the TOP 5 GMMG’s voted on by the owners.



When does everyone think we should hand out our own awards?



Ballots in Saturday noon & do awards around 1 or 2???



I will also have a few GMMG Registry announcements. Hopefully we can have Bud, Scott Settlemire & Matt Berger around for this about 2 or 2:30 Friday???



If you can provide anything or help with something, please let me know. This is hard to do 1200 miles away.



Please give some thought for future GMMG Gatherings – maybe a yearly event? @ Berger Show ? – Chicago Muscle Car Show around Thanksgiving? – Power Tour? Where else?



http://camaronationals.org/



Please pass along & share – we need more GMMG’s (only about 14 so far)



Thanks

I will bring a THR banner for you and you can just keep it for future events. I will have some THR shirts at that show also. I will bring my 2002 THR convert to the show. I will have a tent set up and a place to hang out and get out of the sun or rain if need be, and everyone is welcome.



Thanks so much Tom. Things are coming together & everyone's help is appreciated. This is a group effort & way too big for me to do alone.



Jim Smith

My brother and I will both be there(25 & 85) if you want to send stuff in advance via ups you are welcome to send it to my address so you will not have to check it on the plane. If needed I can bring a few tables and chairs and a 10x10 canopy. Just let me know. I can also send back anything you need after the event via ups. Feel free to call any time if you need to get something worked out here in Maryland (301) 752 8667



Thanks Ben. I'm so happy I sold SS 85 back to Ben. He's the original owner.
