How do I find out where/when rallies are held in the NE? What about work rallies? I would love to attend some, especially work rallies, but I dont think I'm ready to go 1000 miles yet. Soon I hope.
I'm in the NYC area but would go anywhere in New England. Its starting to get very nice up here. I just haven't run across any conversations regarding anything up here. I assume I'm just missing it somehow.
Thanks all....

Hi Daryn,

I am also a Hudson Valley, NY GMCer and can offer some suggestions.

There are 2 "local" GMC Clubs that I am a member of and would suggest they both have great rallies. Unfortunately neither club has a website and finding out what is happening if you are not a member is difficult. This really needs to change.

Here is contact information:

GMC Colonial Travelers
Rallies held each month in NJ & PA
Contact: freyjanetr@yahoo.com

GMC Nor'Easters
Rallies held each month primarily New England
Contact: Bill Kittredge kittredgep@optonline.net

Heritage Cruisers are a great club but centered in the Buffalo area, quite a distance from us.

Get back to me if I can be of any assistance.

Bill,

As a refugee from the East Coast, it would be nice to know when/where more...
Is there a chance that we could get these people to communicate the schedule to Bdub so he could put in the Gcalendar?

I have suggested they do something about that and will keep pushing for it. May I suggest a couple of you (yes, just a couple) emailing the 2 clubs I mentioned asking for information since you didn't know they existed.

How about the Heritage Cruisers, or is that too far away.

Byron,

The Heritage Cruisers are centered around Niagara Falls/Buffalo. The 2 clubs I mentioned draw the majority of their members from New England and NJ & Eastern PA.

Buffalo would be over 360 miles from me, too far for a weekend rally:^)

I've reached out to the nor'easters. I will see what they have going first. I hope they get back. I think they may be the closest. I have family in VT and tend to head north most of the time. The more roadworthy I get will determine how far I end up going.

I bet if you join those clubs you will get mailings. IT is a great way to know others who own a GMC or two. I did not know they even exsisted. We are Dixielanders but rarely get to attend due to distance. They are the closest active group to Teri and me, that we are aware of.
Seems like there is a group over in Kansas but we like going the other way until we head out for the winters.

Breaking the thread, but this thread has some prime examples.
When doing a listing involving phone numbers and or e-mail addresses, please do not list it directly.
For phone numbers mix in the number value spelled out as a word. 6 =. Six.
For e-mail, separate the listing out and use the word "at" instead do @.
EX: jim at gmail dot com, instead of jim@gmail.com.
This will not stop all scammers, but will stop most automated scalping software, since you have broken the pattern. A human can easily interpret your meaning.
Just my little touch of Paranoria.
