Datsun Roadsters at The Glen September 8-12, 2010
Wednesday, September 8th- Craig and I will arrive at Watkins Glen State Park
around 3 PM. and be tenting on Tuscarora Loop site # 291.
Thursday, September 9, 2010
All roadsters in town who want to join in this run around Seneca Lake, please
meet at The Glen Market on Franklin Street at 10 AM. Craig and I will lead the
group up the west side of the lake and 1st stop at Lakewood Winery. Our 2nd
stop will be at Prejean Winery for so more sampling. We will continue to Geneva
and The Belhurst Castle for a buffet lunch at Edgar's at 1:00 PM. Lunch run
$9.95 for the buffet and it is a very intriguing place on the lake. After lunch
we will continue down the east side of the lake, stopping at Wagner Vineyard
and Leidenfrost Vineyard. Thursday evening is on your own. If there are
wineries you would rather go to, just let me know. It will not break my heart.
Friday, September 10, 2010
Many roadsters will be involved in the winery car rallies and will meet us down
on Franklin Street for the festivities. Fred Davidson has managed to secure
group parking in a prime location at the icecream stand on Franklin Street next
to the Burger King. Please contact Fred if you want to reserve a spot for your
roadster.
At 4:30 PM, we will gather up on Datsun Hill to cheer on any Datsun we see in
the race reenactment.
Around 6:00 PM, DRONE will be throwing their annual cookout at the Golden
Knight Inn. Please bring food or drink to share. Come for the great food and
roadster talk.
Now for Saturday, September 11, 2010
Come join us at Watkins Glen State Park parking lot on Franklin Street for our
Show n' Shine. Bring your Datsun (any make or model) show condition or in
primer. Vote for your favorites in several different categories. Come early
7:30 AM and stay till 11 or 12.
Lunch is on your own.
We would like all Datsuns to meet at the Walmart Parking Lot at 1 PM for our
1st ever Datsun Road Rallye sponsored by Hazlitt Winery and created by Jack
McCormick. I am sure it will be a great time for all, so make sure you gas up
before meeting us.
The Rallye will bring us back to Hazlitt Winery for a wine tasting and our
annual get together.
I have spoken with Derrick who provided our meal last year. He is planning our
menu of Pulled Pork Barbeque, Barbeques Beef Briskit, Salt Potatoes, Coleslaw
and Rolls and butter. Ice tea and coffee will also be provided. The cost this
year is $15.00 per person and we will have plenty of food as long as I have
reservations by September 3rd. I need to know by September 1st if people are
still looking forward to this.
Dinner will be by 6 PM followed by Awards and door prizes. A cash bar will be
available.
Sunday, September 12, 2010
Early on Sunday, many of us meet at Curly's for breakfast. Come early and talk
roadsters. Some will head home, others will go to the track for the races.
As you know this has continued to be a slow year for many businesses and we are
low on donations. Please dig deep into your stockpiles of roadster parts and
donate to our Saturday night drawing. Any prizes will be greatly appreciated.
I will be ordering the trophies next week unless someone is creative and wants
to make them.
As you know we always have t-shirts for sale at the Show n' Shine. Please plan
on purchasing yours. Funds from these help with the costs of planning this
event. We are looking forward to a great meet in 2011 when Datsun will be the
featured car at The Glen.
Please email me back with reservations or any feedback to either Craig's email
at chalsted@comcast.net or Elaine. Halsted@dss.virginia.gov or call my cell at
540-631-8646.
I know this email is running close to the meet but it has been a hectic time
for me at work.
I look forward to hearing from all of you with suggestions and reservations.
Here's to a great 2010 Meet at The Glen.
