Nicki, Elias and I thought we should make a thread that details the meet location, the attendance list and the schedeule for the Feb 9-10 meet in Chicago, so here goes!

I will be attending. For sure the 10th, hopefully I can get off of working on the 9th, so I can come down either on the 9th, or Thursday night, but probably Friday early afternoon, because I'd like to leave here around 9 or so, and get down there between 3-4.

Aside from the meet, the only things I wanna do as far as sightseeing go would be to go to the Ferrari/Lamborghini dealer, or perhaps a Rolls Royce/Bentley dealer, or go to the top of the Sears Tower.

O.K. So what were we discussing before we were so rudely interrupted? Oh yeah, is there anywhere for us out-of-towners to park near a metro and all ride in. Looks like I'll come up Saturday afternoon, weather permitting.

Gizmo, I know at most suburb metra stops they have parking lots to park your car which is free. I believe its also free parking on weekends, check me on that to make sure. At the restaurant, its free parking. At McCormick place I'm not too positive on how much parking is, I'll have to find Jesda and ask him. I hope that answers your questions, feel free to ask more.

Vic, dinner is on Saturday 9th night. I'm aiming for 7-7:30 time. Just people aren't responding to that to let me know so I can see if I can possibly make a reservation. Sunday 10th after 12 PM we're meeting at the auto show. I said above to Gizmo, if you have any more questions let me know.

If I can get Brian to come (and Tanner for that matter) we should try and motorcade down to Chicago.

Alright, so since the trip is nearing closer, can we get a final itenerary set up?

Man I wish I would have found out about this sooner, I just discovered this great lakes forum, was this meet ever posted to any of the other caddy forums? I'm only 2 hrs. away, but I can't make it that weekend.

gdwriter, jesda, gizmo, 90brougham, kael - I had a great time with you guys last year at the des moines meet, wish I could stop down and see all of you again. Hope you are all coming to davenport in April, I already got my vac time requested for that one.
