[Ms Grumpy]

I'm in. My registration will be out next week.

Is there any code needed for the registration at the Holiday Inn ?

For those who have never been to this show, reserve your room at the hotel early they sold out early.

[BillsCamino]

Is there any code needed for the registration at the Holiday Inn ?

Looks like "Group code: NOC" as listed on flyer. ;)

[flash]

Registration and reservations already done ,cant wait .

[Ms Grumpy]

Just did my reservations. No more king rooms left and less than 10 rooms left in the group rate. I had to book a king bed at normal rate, which is $139.99 a nite.

[Ms Grumpy]

So who has sent in their registration ?

[flash]

Ours is in .

[Ken Hayes]

Registration sent this morning, also reservations are set. Leaving here Friday morning and coming back Sunday night.

[BillsCamino]

Hotel res made but no car entry mailed yet.
I have no idea what car to register?? Got a bad habit of not keeping one too long...:(

[72convertible]

In addition to all the toys we collected this year, we gave the Marines a check this past weekend - Thanks for your support!

[Ken Hayes]

Good deal.

[flash]

That was a very nice donation ,we already have a bunch of toys for next year .

[Ken Hayes]

Got my registration conformation this morning from NOCC.

[Ms Grumpy]

YEAH !!! Looks like the show is going to fill up quicker this year than last year. Glad you got your registration in.

[Ms Grumpy]

Bill just get a registration in. I am sure they would change the car for you if needed.

[BillsCamino]

Bill just get a registration in. I am sure they would change the car for you if needed.

I've had Mark do that 2 or 3 times now in past years. Kind of embarrassing...
I'll wait a few months.

[flash]

Mark dont mind it gives him something to do ,its not like he has a show to plan .LOL .

[Ms Grumpy]

Bill I just know from what I have been seeing on Facebook that a lot more registrations are in already. Maybe we can get a total and see where they are.

[flash]

We are hoping to spend a week in Ohio next year ,hang around a little after the show and see the sights .Will have a new boss above my boss by then and SHE likes me .

[shadowgray396]

Wish we could get the enthusiasm you all get. Looks like there will be no car show this next year and most likely there will no longer be a chevelle club in Oregon. No one wants to do any thing anymore.

[flash]

Sorry to hear Ray ,ya'll put on a great show when we were there . Ray ,we need your mail address for our Christmas card list .

[Ken Hayes]

Man that's a bummer Ray. You could always move East.........we do plenty of shows around here (at least 1 or more every week).

[Ms Grumpy]

Ray it is hard as people get older. The clubs have long term members but a lot of them just don't have the energy to set up shows. And now some businesses don't want the liability of having the shows in their lots.

[shadowgray396]

I would be fine without the show, but would like to have a few friends to hang out with at shows or take a drive.

[flash]

We got burned out with the local to us Chevelle club ,we were members for very many years and worked really hard to help the club but there were really only a few that were willing to work .The few led by many finally gave up I think ,they are struggling now to survive.

[shadowgray396]

Sound like it across the board with every club from what I'm hearing. Explains why there is no more Chevellebration

[72convertible]

HOLY Cows - I am getting Hi-Jacked - Lets stay on topic....
NOCC just had our annual Christmas Party and we had over 60 people attend. It was a great time!!

The show is shaping up really nice with people from over 14 different states already signed up. The Hotel is right in the middle of a complete remodel - New Windows, New room furniture and a new entrance. Don't miss out on this show! We only have room for 200 Chevelles. It's like no other Car show you have been too.

Follow us on Facebook for almost daily updates. https://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/n.ohio.chevelles/

[Ken Hayes]

Sorry Mark, didn't mean to get off track.

Our Christmas party is tonight.

I've been recruiting Chevelle people from Facebook to come to your show.

[flash]

Mark ,if you would come around more often we might stay on track .

[72convertible]

What do you think?

[flash]

If thats the best you can do I suppose it will be fine .LOL





By the way ,how is the Bounty Hunter coming along ?

[Ken Hayes]

Only 1 Bounty Hunter..........Connie Kalitta

[flash]

Actually I think Mark's is called the Red Racer but not sure .

[72convertible]

Our code name is Red Racer but this particular Bounty Hunter was raced by Nick Colazzi in Lockport NY. The car was raced from 1966 - 1974 and was sold in 1994 to my friend Larry. The Chevelle only has about 2400 miles on it. Larry is hoping to have the car at this years show restored to factory original condition. I am working on a recreation of the Race Car but my progress has been much slower. Here is a little video from this summer.

[Ken Hayes]

Man what a small world. I was stationed just outside Lockport, NY 1968-1970, between Upper Mountain and Lower Mountain Rds in the middle of a corn field underground. It was a Nike-Hercules missile site. The radiator headquarters in town had a big fountain in front of it and we dumped 5 boxes of Tide into it..........shoulda seen the bubbles.

[72convertible]

Here is our first shot at our Video Newsletter.

Hope you enjoy it - I know Flash would rather have something to read...:)

[72convertible]

Sorry I have not checked back here in awhile. Here is a video explaining the Hotel Situation.... We still have room on the show field but I will warn you now, send those registrations in..... We sold the hotel out in July last year and Feb this year. I expect the show field to sell out early. I want to thank all of you for that!!! It makes it so much easier to plan a good show when you know how many people are comming....We are currently at 83 / 201 spaces filled.

[Ms Grumpy]

[flash]

So I was wrong again ,you did get me ,shame on you .Looking forward to seeing all of you guys and gals and warm dry weather too.

[Gary V]

Mine was sent in. Hope to see you all there.

[Ms Grumpy]

Did you guys see that the NOCC guys did really well at the Ohio Auto Show. They took a couple of awards...
I am not surprised. They have some beautiful cars which will all be at the NOCC show I am sure.

[72convertible]

Yes our group took the Best Display award at the Cleveland Autorama for our Used Car Lot Theme. Registrations are flying in like hot cakes since Autorama - only 50 more spots left. You better get your registration in ASAP!

We currently have about 155 / 201 registrations for the show, so get your entry in ASAP.

[Ms Grumpy]

The car that was sent last year was beautiful.

I am surprised that the show is not sold out yet. I am pretty sure that the Holiday Inn is sold out, but not the show ???

[flash]

Im sure it will sell out soon ,Im going to miss the show next year so we have to have a real good time this year .

[Ken Hayes]

Only 27 days left.

[Ken Hayes]

Neat video.

[flash]

Juat a little bit long though.

[Ms Grumpy]

Love that a parade was added.

[Ms Grumpy]

Just checking to see if anyone needs a room at the Holiday Inn.

I have reserved 3 rooms from Thursday afternoon with checkout on Sunday morning.

I have a room with 2 full size beds that I don't need. If anyone needs a room please let me know. I know a lot of people won't get in until Friday morning, but if I give up the room Thursday night unfortunately it will be gone.

[BillsCamino]

I also have a double room available...for Friday and Saturday nights.

[Ms Grumpy]

There are a few people on the NOCC page on FB that are looking for rooms. I will check and see what they need too.

[Ken Hayes]

That was the best show we've been to so far. Met a lot of Facebook friends. 202 Chevelles. I won 6 qts of Pennzoil Syn 10w40 oil as a door prize. Also got a glass trophy (with a duck) at the awards banquet.

[flash]

Was a great show as always except for the hotel troubles.

[72convertible]

Thanks to all who attended - here is a great video of some of the things that happened.
