Count us in for the cruise.

JCKL99

Glad you can join. How many is "us"?

[Xello]

I'm wondering the drive up plan and date? Leaving early morning? Night before? I would like to check schedule at work..
Thanks

Not sure what is planned for the drive up. I believe some people drove up together the morning of last year. Should I put you on the list? It's a fun cruise.

[SCOTCH MAN]

For JCKL99 = count = 2 Lorrie and jim!

Depending on where everyone lives we can do a mini meet in Mchenry area at a specified location, cruise up to jelly belly and do the tour. Anyone interested in meeting for the drive up there let me know.

Is there any way we can get a list going for the tour and reserve the early time slot?

[Xello]

While we can't make a tour reservation per se, I do plan on calling them in advance to see if we can get an early time alloted so we can tour together as a group.

Autumn is just around the corner which means it's time for a cruise to Lake Geneva. Despite some sprinkles last year we had a very nice cruise and this year will be even better. This year's cruise will be on Sunday, October 7th.

Once again, we will meet at the Jelly Belly factory warehouse in Pleasant Prairie, WI. Free 1/2 hour tours of the facility start at 9:00am. We are planning on starting the cruise by 10:15am so you'll want to get your tour in early so that you still have time to shop and be ready to cruise. Jelly Belly Info

We will cruise to Lake Geneva via country highways and tree lined Rustic Roads and the fall colors should be starting by then. Glacial hills and winding roads, including 4 very tight consecutive 45 degree turns are included on the route. The route has been modified slightly from last year to keep it fresh and to include more amazing road fun. We will be travelling at a safe but brisk pace. We'll make one or two very quick stops along the way. The first at Bushnell Park in Burlington for some photo-ops and the second in Lyons for a fuel stop, if needed. We should arrive in Lake Geneva before 1:30pm.

Once in Lake Geneva we'll have lunch at the new Sprecher's Restaurant & Pub which is right on the lake, close to downtown shopping and provides us with plenty of parking. After lunch the rest of the afternoon will be yours to shop, explore or take a boat tour.

Lunch Details:
$12 per person, $6 for 12 and under; includes a variety of lunch menu items plus non-alcoholic beverage, tax and tip. Please pay me (Xello) beforehand while at Jelly Belly. Doing it this way will ensure that we all get to sit together in the same area of the restaurant and that all will go smoothly. I will need to place a personal $100 non-refundable deposit so I will need at least 10 confirmed participants before I commit. Thank you for your understanding.

Praying this will work for us since I'm opening the 3rd of 9 new Wendy's in Chicagoland right around this weekend. For now count me in with a +3 pending construction schedules.

Well, my vacation request is in. I will let you know if I get it approved. It may be a few weeks, as someone just got fired on my weekend shift. Until they fill that position its not certain that I will be able to get the weekend off but I am trying. Once I know I have it off, I'm down for a pre-run Ray, so that you have someone in the back knowing the route.

Hopefully it works out. If you want to shoot east just to run it regardless if you'll be able to make the October cruise or not, just let me know and we'll find a date.

[Mantis RS]

Weekend of Sept. 1st, 15th or 29th are my weekends off prior to the cruise date. Any one of them would work.

FYI: If anyone needs more incentive to join the Lake Geneva cruise other than rewarding your Camaro by letting it hang with other Camaros, booger flavored jelly beans, a fun cruise with fall colors and Sprecher beer (root beer for the kiddies)...I've been able to secure some door prizes.

Camaro notebooks??

[TonyNo]

You can take your sticker from membership renewal and apply it to a notebook!

[Bee-otch]

Michele and I will be there...

[Xello]

Camaro notebooks??

Hmmm, maybe I'll pick some of those up as well.
