Hey Howard,
Good to hear from you again. If you remember we met in restaurant at last year's reflection in glass and then again at the show in Naples (I'm Kevin and Kathy's brother in law).
As mentioned in my intitial post, festival is first weekend in February. You guys will be coming from Broward on Alligator Alley. You just get off @ SR 29 and head south to Everglades City. As more info comes in I will post same. Stay tuned...

Here's the Offishul Website for the event. Not much detail, but it does give some info, and maps. We've been there, it's a nice little drive.

Majority Wins - Which Day To See Festival?
If there is enough interest, we need to decide on whether to go Saturday or Sunday then pass the word too other corvette groups. America's Corvette Club (Reflections in Glass sponsor) has indicated that they may be bringing some cars.
SWFCC members could meet first in Cape Coral then caravan to the Winn Dixie in Labelle, resume caravan to intersection of SR 29/SR 82 and meet up with Corvettes on The Gulf members if any are interested then caravan to intersection of US 41/SR 29 and meet up with America's Corvetter Club If they show up. Once we are all together, we could then caravan down to Everglades City together.
And of course any non members would certainly be welcomed to join us at any point along our route.
We still have plenty of time to work out logistics. All we need to know for now is 1) Who's going? 2) Saturday or Sunday? 3) Which meeting spot works for you. Stay tuned....

Parking Situation
I made an attempt to get some parking arrangements for us but unfortunately the event organizers do not handle the parking. There will be parking concessions as well DIY parking.
If there is anyone out that has an "in" with these folks, your help will be greatly appreciated.

New Development - Sunday is Super Bowl
That puts a new wrinkle on things. Shown below is everyone's preference to date :toetap05: :
Saturday, February 3, 2007: Sampedros, Rupps, Fultons, Burch's, Goldberg & Americas Corvette
Super Bowl Sunday, February 4, 2007: Sampedros, Gannett, Fultons[/QUOTE]
Me personally, I would rather be behind the wheel of a corvette for three hours than in front of a TV screen watching everyone else get rich. :hehehe:
I will continue to update this roll call as the big day nears. :thumbsup:

10:30AM @ SR 82 (Immokalle Rd)/SR 29 (coming from
11AM @ US 41/SR 29 @ Everglades City Visitor Center
America's Corvettes will be @ the 11 AM location and from there whoever shows up will proceed to the Festival.
There is still plenty of time to add stops, change times etc. - just post your thoughts and whatever works with the majority wins.

Weather Update For This Weekend
The long range forcast for this coming weekend is 40%-60% rain predicted. This could definitely put a damper on things being that Everglades City in a bit on the low lying end of things and not conducive to vettes when there roads are wet. We will have to see later in the week. Stay tuned...
