The registration site is up. If you are interested in going get registered soon with Airgate and the Hotel as spots will fill up quick. I guarantee this is the best time you will have with your S ever!!!

We will be coordinating a drive up for those interested. We will probably do either the trip up or back in a two day setup. Stay tuned!!

They already have 30 rooms taken in 4 days. That leaves only 40 rooms left. If you are considering going I would suggest to make a room reservation at the hotel immediately.

I have gotten some questions on cost:

Hotel $60 / night x2
Dragon Registration $50 driver / owner $30 passenger
Gas 8 fill ups (4 going up and 4 coming back) $160
Food Saturday all food is paid for, Friday and Sunday your responsibility. (Breakfast on Sat. and Sun. is free also)

Overal, budget about $400 total for the trip. Let me know if there are any questions.

Please note that the registration fee includes your event T-shirt, lunch at a sit-down restaurant (not Subway like last time), and a sit-down dinner on Saturaday night (which we did not do at all in April).

I think the plan this time is to leave on Thursday, do about half the drive (perhaps a bit more) that day, and then finish up on Friday so we get in to Knoxville w/ some time to spare.

In April, we left the Lake Worth service plaza at 6:30am. We didn't get in to Knoxville until about 8pm that night. It was a looooooooooong day.

Update for the Return of the Dragon:

1) Deiger
2) Jerseygirl
3) KeithD
4) Daworm
5)

Way to go Warren, looking forward to it.

Charles,

To followup on jerseygirls post, probably leave on Thurs. from Lake Worth Rest Area around 6:30-7am again. Plan is to not spend the whole day driving. I trust the 2 day drive up will make it much more enjoyable. We now need to look for a hotel N. of Atlanta to stay!

The hotel that was the headquarters for SESM '04 was pretty nice. It was a Best Western on 19/400, actually about 6 miles from Dawsonville proper, and about 30-40 miles north of Atlanta (just guessing, but couldn't have been much more than that). I believe some of the folks worked out that it was about 2-1/2 to 3 hours to The Dragon from there.

p.s. , Kim.
