Starting in January we will be getting into the planning for the 2006 Big East Coast Meet and at this point we would like to get all of your feedback in order to help us plan the event tailored to all of you who will be in attendance. We tentatively have 3 locations and date that we are throwing around but this doesn't rule out other dates and times. We can do three types of events.
We can plan a weekend event to coincide with the May Ocean City, MD event which features a lot of older cars but there's plenty of late-models and it's a city-wide event with cars shows, parties and 24 hour cruising plus it's a beach resort so the whole family can come:

This weekend's a blast. Another alternative is to set up a weekend event to coincide with the Chrysler Nationals at Carlisle, PA. This wouldn't be until the weekend after the Fourth of July but this is also a full weekend event but it is more car oriented and not as much of a family event (though the family is encouraged to come). The plus to Carlisle is that we will probably be able to get the most DCX participation at this location. Here's a link to the Carlisle event:

I'm still waiting on Englishtown to give us their info on their May Dodge event. Our past events have been held at Englishtown and they are planning a big event for May that is supposed to be on the level of a Dodge National's event. Englishtown gives us a little bit more to work with when we attend there and we should be able to do either a one-day Saturday event or a weekend event. Plus, Englishtown will probably be the only location that we can get some track-time in at.

We're planning a big event with a good bit of manufacturer participation and appearances and we're hoping to draw members and guests from mainly this side of the Mississippi but I already know of some forum members that will be flying out from the West Coast. Our past events have drawn countless members from 5, 6 even 10 up to hours away so we know that if we can set up a full weekend event, it helps you guys traveling further to justify the trip. For now, we want your feedback since this event is put on for you guys.
Another question is: do you want to open up this meet to any other late model Dodge/Chrysler cars? If so, what?
Big Bob, do you have anything to add?
Thanks everyone!
