Default South FL Cruises?????

What happened to all the South Fl Cruises? I know that in '06 a couple of the main coordinators have been faced with distractions. But I was wondering if will we be getting back into these fun events in 2007?

Call an eating establishment that has enough parking for at least 50 cars. Ask if they are interested, also ask for a food discount. Find the available date, POST AWAY

I would be interested in a cruise as well. The last one that I heard of was going to the Quarter Deck in Palm Beach. It ended up raining that day so I passed.
I don't know what I can do to help, but let me know if you need anything.

I will be going to the reflections in glass show on January 27th in Boca if anyone else is going from Dade or South Broward let me know and we can caravan up.

That was the last one we set up. Since that time business and medical issues, have kept those of us that organize these events sidelined. Like I stated above it just requires the phone call and then posting the hell out of it so the word gets out.

Mark we have a monthly cruise - to the Corvette Challenge at Moroso! We usually meet at Roger's or thereabouts and cruise up. The food's not the greatest but the entertainment and camaradarie couldn't be better. You should check it out again, you went to the first one IIRC but we're a group of buddies now like we road course guys became and it's a lot more fun.

BTW I went to Towers for the first time in a long time Friday, the South Florida Stangs sure have a large contingent there and their leader has a pretty scary looking huffer on that thing. Bob, what's his name?

That's RONNIE His car ran a 10.9 during the vette stang race. they already have lots of cars signed up for the new series. He and Louis (Louis and Ronnie run the Challenge together) are doing a great job.

I'm in and available for planning or help.

I did the Clewiston run last year and was hoping to see it again. Guess that is not happening?
