Lake George Summer run details

[A Cobra guy]

The Lake George Summer run is taking shape!
When: Saturday July 9th,2022 Depart at 10:00 am
Where: Gather at the Fort William Henry Hotel south parking lot, 48 Canada St, Lake George, NY
Who: Cobra replicas, their owners & co-pilots, as well as a few other car lovers with their rides.
What to expect:
• There will be a brief drivers meeting at 9:45. We’ll have water bottles for those wanting one.
• Expect to pull out of the parking lot at 10:00 am sharp. So, arrive with an empty bladder and a full tank.
• The first leg of the cruise is about 2 hours. We will stop for lunch at Neil B’s house.
• Lunch will be “make your own” cold cut sandwiches, chips and water. Cost is $10 per head which we’ll collect at Neil’s.
• After Lunch we’ll cruise on back to Lake George along the western shore of the lake.
• Rain?? Not a lot of choices, so cross your fingers.
• The total days drive is about 120 miles. The route we have planned is below.

Misc: Some of us are arriving Thursday so stop by the Quality Inn if you’d like. Any ideas for fun and mayhem on Friday are welcome. A few suggestions: tubing on the Hudson River (Bring a suite), Go carts, hiking, the rodeo, (yes there’s a rodeo) Fort Henry museum, 6 Flags, Outlet Shopping. Out of towners reach out to make dinner plans for Friday or Saturday.
On Sunday a group will be heading to the Car Museum in Saratoga. Details on Saturday. It’s a small and friendly place with some unique stuff. Here’s a link. https://www.saratogaautomuseum.org/

The weather is looking really good for this weekend, hope to see a lot of Cobra's at this years event. We have a terrific road tour on Saturday with a great lunch stop before heading back to Lake George for the day. The Saratoga Auto Museum has offered us a discount on the admission fee for Sunday for those interested in seeing their latest collection of cars. Looking forward to seeing all these Cobra's thundering through the Adirondack Mountains!

Thanks Harvey and Neil for putting this together. In spite of rocky dirt roads and rough pavement, a fine time was had by all.

Tim, in spite of driving the route a week prior to the event, the county highway crew decided to mill a section of road after my test drive. I actually talked to them that week and they assured me the road would not be milled until well after our event. My apologies, this was totally unforeseen. I hope this doesn't discourage anyone from attending next year.
