If you haven’t pre-registered for the showfield and you know you will be attending, save yourself a bunch of time by pre-registering.
Here is the link:
Choose club affiliation as CCNJPA/DelMarVa…even if you are not a member of these clubs.
If you are not pre-registered you will have wait in line to go through the main entrance at Gate 3 to register on site.
If you have any questions, please ask here.
If you are coming out of New England or Eastern Upstate New York…and traveling on Thursday June 1st.
In years past, the Mercury Cougar Club of New England departs Thursday morning to meet at the Redline Diner-- 588 rte 9 in Fishkilln NY just off I-84 exit 46B. Redline has a very extensive menu and the food was great. Plenty of seating at Redline for a large group.
------Meeting time at Redline Diner is 11:00am to have lunch. At 1pm, we head across the street for gas. With a couple rest stops we make it to the Courtyard Marriott in Mechanicsburg, PA around 5pm.
We already have a few Cougars traveling together for the caravan. Please join us for the trip!
Thanks Mark!
You need to register your Cougar for the Show Field soon in order to leave enough time for Carlisle to mail your admittance decal. As Mark said, much easier to have that already affixed to your windshield and drive right onto the show field.
And we will have our annual cookout at the host hotel on Saturday night. Everyone is invited!
Thanks Phillip! To emphasize on “everyone is invited” to the cookout on Saturday…Yes!, you do not need to be a guest at Courtyard Marriott. Whether you are at a different hotel, live locally, camping or live in your car, everyone that has, had or is looking for a Cougar is invited to our cookout at Courtyard Marriot 4931 Gettysburg Road in Mechanicsburg starting around 5:30pm.
