2008 Eact Coast 356 Holiday

[Tony356993]

These events are awesome if you like 356's. The last East Coast 356 Holiday I attended had over 400 356's. It is a surreal sight.

Details:

It is now official; the 2008 356 Registry East Coast Holiday will be
held in our area. Bruce and Martha Baker, Bob and Marcia Laepple, and
Eric and Esther Wahlberg put together a proposal to the Registry and
heard last week that they were the successful team. Mark your (next
year's) calendar for September 4 - 7. The main hotel for the event
will be the Eden Resort in Lancaster. The event theme is Trains,
Planes and (356) Automobiles. There will be a Friday ride on the
Strasburg Railway with dinner at the Pennsylvania Railway Museum; and
the Concours will be held on Saturday at the Grimes Airfield (antique
and vintage planes). There will be drives in Lancaster County
including covered bridges and country roads. There will be the usual
goody store, swap meet, and, if scheduling allows, a literature and
memorabilia sale. The master of ceremonies for the banquet dinner
will be Prescott Kelly, the president of PCA and a looong time
356er. Somewhere in there will be a technical session and a lot more
activities.

Registration opens January 1, 2008 and the event may well sell out, so if you are considering attending as a registrant, check out the site and do not wait long.

Any room for a 356D? LOL! This looks like a great time and I love the Strasburg Railroad. Been there several times and had a Titan meet there last summer. Calendar is marked!

You do not need to own a 356 to be a member of 356Registry, but you do need to be a member to participate in a 356Registry event, such as a Holiday.

Hmmmm... So 912 Registry status isn't retroactive?  I'll have to look into the 356 Registry. Those are sweet little cars.

if you mean reciprocal, I wouldn't count on it...
the 356Registry puts out a darned fine magazine each month too; that alone is worth the cost for many...
