2012 Prowl at Carlisle Ford Nationals

The Cougar Club of NJ/PA and the Delmarva Cougar Club have decided to slap the official Prowl designation on this summer’s Carlisle Ford Nationals, June 1-3.

We have a block of rooms all lined up at the lovely Hotel Carlisle, so come join us for our famous parking lot mixers!

What does doing this portend? Reason I ask is I have a suggestion. If the Cougar’s really want to prowl, let me suggest signing up for the Saturday evening downtown parade ($10), my wife and I participated in the first one last year and it was a blast. The procession drove into the center of town and parked three-wide (one row along the L/R curb and one down the middle, we were in the middle). There was a live band and a lot of people. Very enjoyable.

LOL! Kinda strange with the simultaneous threads.

The parade sounds terrific. Hopefully, the weather will be nice.

I plan on being there Thursday so I am at the gates bright and early Friday the 1st.

I will also be in the parade!

Hey, everyone - I just called the Hotel Carlisle to book a room for the June 1-3 DCC Prowl with the Cougar Club of New Jersey/Pennsylvania at the Carlisle All-Ford Nats. I haven’t seen much chatter about this, so wanted to make sure everyone knew we have a room block again this year with a special rate of $111.96. To get that rate, ask for a room in the “Cougar Club of New Jersey/Pennsylvania” block. Regular rates are $139, so it’s a decent savings. They told me they had 20 rooms left in the block, so you might want to book now.

Also, the deadline for Carlisle’s “Gate-and-Go” registration is this Monday, April 30. This is the Carlisle pre-registration system that mails you a window sticker ahead of time, so you don’t have to wait in a line when you get there - just drive onto the show field. The $10 pre-regisration savings ($40 now, $50 after) ends Monday, too. Link to register online is:

I am going to whip up an extremely limited run of “Prowl 2012” t-shirts. Old school screen printed on %100 cotton heavy weight shirts.

Gas prices are dropping and the more the merrier so I hope to see some of you there!

I tweaked the “2012 Prowl” logo and got the art all set up for screen printing.

It’s off to the printer later this week.

Shirts are in.

They will be on sale at the show at Carlisle.

Also, just in case anyone was wondering - I design, produce and manage the printing of these show shirts for free. Any profits will be split between the Cougar Club of NJ/PA and the Delmarva Cougar Club and be plowed back into the clubs.

Be there or be square!
