Okay Guys,
I know we have dragged our feet in deciding where exactly on the south side we wanted to go. That's because we appointed a committee to make the decision.
That committee has been reviewing the area and trying to come up with an attraction that would interest all of us.
The first suggestion was the Ponderosa in Roseland, Indiana. For those of you that are unfamiliar with this location; let's just say it is kind of like the Algonquin of the area.
While the general feeling was this cite (or is it site; or sight?) had universal interest for the club members - there was a problem. You see, while Cobra owners are willing to go topless in the middle of April. The Ponderosa people are not. So it back to the drawing board so to speak
Now we are trying to set up a visit to Gess Motorsports. For those of you unfamiliar with Gess they are a builder located in Crete Illinois. (For those of you that wonder where Crete, Illinois is located; well me too, remember I am geographically challenged).
Gess has built a number of Cobras and is helping at least one WCCC member finish their ride. Gess is also involved in the Hot Rod side of motorsports. The only difficulty seems to be getting them to commit almost 3 moths in advance of the event.
So here is what the committee has come up with. Let’s use the Cracker Barrel in Matteson Illinois. (For those of you that wonder where Matteson, Illinois is located; well me too, I am still geographically challenged. But I am sure it is South someplace)
That way, even if we can not get into Gess Motorsports on a Saturday we will have at lease crossed the so call Mason/Dixon line and and made it South of Madison Street.
Can I get an 'Amen' to this?
