Guests,
Above
is the agenda for the Air and Coach Concours. Again the food will be fantastic.
We have thrown in a few new items and kept the ones that you enjoyed from last
year. Parliament will be bringing several coaches for sale and will be talking
a lot about the new Parliament coaches that are in development. Rick Smith will
be joining us from River Landings and please plan on attending Rob Krajicek
speaking about SkyMed at Thursday mornings breakfast. It really sounds like a
great service and I was very surprised how inexpensive it was. The
entertainment that we have lined up will be better than ever. I have heard all
of these bands personally and I assure you that you will not be disappointed. I
am even working on a bonus solo artist for Wednesday that will be amazing if we
can get him. I will let you know later today. Tony and his team will have over
400 cars for the auction and the rest of the event is filling out nicely.As
always if you need anything at all please do not hesitate to call 717-215-0700.Bill

Yes Buddy we were approaching 20 as of last week. I would love and am ready to see a few more. If any of you are even close to the area I assure you that it will be worth the trip. The entertainment alone is going to be great for this event.

For anyone that may be interested in upgrading or maybe even in purchasing their first coach. We will have about 10 pre-owned coaches on hand for sale. Parliament, FeatherLite and possibly Marathon will all have several coaches serviced and ready for a new owner at the event. Last year we sold over 50% of the coaches that we had available.
-
Anyone going to Autofest that wants a Pressure Pro system, let me know asap and I’ll bring it with me.

-
Maybe I missed it in this long thread, is there a prefered route from I-4 to the event?
Looking at the map, looks like I should take exit 25 on I-4 and head south. After that I am not sure where I should turn left to get to the proper gate for the event.
Thanks
-
Andre,
Take County Line road south from I-4 then turn left onto Medulla Rd. and that will take directly into Sun-n-Fun. We may be parked in a different area, so I’ll let Bill take it from here.

-
Tom,
Thanks, See you there, we paln on getting there on Monday.

Thanks Tom
Andre Tom did a great job with the directions. In fact right where the red indicator is on the picture is where you enter the event. Just call me when you are close and I will guide you in.
I look forward to meeting you and Ann!

Since the election is Tuesday night I am going to setup my satellite
and TV in the Cessna building. We can order some pizza and watch the circus amongst
friends. I will not be responsible any for any of my Dad’s comments if it is
not going well for Trump!Tom
and Jon I’m not sure who you are voting for, but we do have small room in the
back for the misguided! -
Sounds good, Bill. Any problem with us showing up Monday afternoon?
Raymond Norris is also coming in. Can we get side-by-side spots? -
no problem on coming in early. It might be $35 plus tax. We can figure that out if anyone catches us. Lol just call me on a Monday and let me know when your arriving:) 717-215-0700

Parked in an “older” RV camp site. As you might guess there were electric issues from the get-go. Bill C.took care of that this morning with about 6 electrical contractor trucks, couple of boom trucks and about 10 workers. Feeder line on pole upgraded to increase amps. All taken care of by 11:00 am. All good.

Nancy expaining to Tom how much she really wants a 2 slide H-345. Hard to believe that Tom will “never” buy a 2 slide bus when they checked this one out at least 3 times. Picture supplied by a protected source.
