Fall 2012 - Oct 27-28 - Event Plan
Ok, so the date is set as Oct 27th - 28th.
Those who have came in the past know how I am... and how I do things. I enjoy the group effort and everyone helping out to make this a great event. This involves setup, cooking, clean up, etc... DO NOT RELY ON ANYONE BUT YOURSELF FOR YOU TO HAVE A GOOD TIME!!! if you have questions about anything, please ASK!!! The biggest part of the larger group get together is happening from Saturday evening and Sunday morning... Saturday - Oct 27 ?? - 6pm - make your way to Smokemont Campground in Cherokee NC 6 pm - At Smokemont Campground, start the fire(s), prepare for the cookout and the evening. * Anyone who wishes to help with the grilling, please, don't hesitated to help out the others. We've all been to cook outs before, so this tends to run pretty smoothly. Sunday - Oct 28 Breakfast - Individual Effort!!! - in other words, it's on you, go to cherokee, bring something, it's up to you... 10 am - For those who wish to do it, we will leave from Cherokee, back on the Parkway to Asheville. We will make 2 main stops for 15-30 min - 1st - figure it out on the way! =] - 2nd - just past Pisgah Mountain Inn (~mile marker 408) The stop at the Pisgah Mountain Inn is where I will consider the end of the event. This helps keep the GA folks from driving too far out of the way to get back home. Anyone who wishes to follow with me the remaining few miles back to Asheville are more than welcome... As we grow, things are going to change... this year I'm not going to lead a convoy on Saturday and everyone stopping in the same places as a group like I have in the years past. Not many of the over looks had space for everyone to park last year... This year no one is on "my schedule" on Saturday and I invite you to make your way down the parkway at a pace you enjoy, stopping as often as you like to take in the beauty of the area. And I will see you at the campsite later that evening. Below I am posting my Saturday schedule, for anyone who wishes to "be like a native"... Anyone is welcome to join me for all or part of my trip, but I'm serious when I say I won't stop often or for long... just stop at a few of my fav little spots... What I'm doing... 8:30 am - Breakfast in Asheville, NC - Cracker Barrel (west asheville - 5 Crowell Road Asheville 28806) 9:30 - 10am - Gas up, final checks on the car and gear... 10 am - Get on the road, head up down Smoky Parky hwy to Pisgah Hwy (NC hwy 151) to the Parkway and go South... * I'll probably make one or two short stops - 10-15 min stops - and then continue on my way... ~ 1pm - Arrive at the campground, check in and claim our group sites. 1pm - 6pm - hang out, get lunch in cherokee, get food for the evening, collect fire wood... If you have any questions, please ask... I know that Holly and Jeremy usually coordinate the ATL crowd... If you would like a list of hotels in the Asheville area for Friday night, let me know, and I'll give you to look into. http://www.blueridgerotaryrun.com/im...9/IMG_0408.jpg Picture taken by Kevin (ZGN) |

OK. This is the year I am finally going to make it the B3R. Who knows, I might even get the professor to come along.

Yes! More FB's! :-) I've just got the shocks and springs installed on mine (154k miles on original struts =8-O )
Should be able to pass that damned red FD with wrong motor now ;-) Not! I've started talking to a guy near me here that has a red FC and seems like a nice kid. I'll direct him to the website and see if he wants to be included. |

This will be my first post via the new RX7 club app. I'm also trying to get my post count up so I can pm. I user my phone alot more than the desktop. My email may be the best pm for a bit. aaron@brownlandscapinginc.com
I'm still planning on coming down on Saturday to cars and coffee. Depending on whether or not our babysitter falls through or not will determine if I bring my wife or my 7 year old son. Either sure would enjoy it. Attachment 472260 |

I've searched all over the website ( Blue Ridge Rotary Run ), and can't figure out how to register. Also, I'm thinking the BRRR might be the tail end of a family camping trip down the Blue Ridge Parkway. Would a pop up camper be appropriate in the group site or should we make arrangements to get a site nearby?
