I would love to come and meet all of the local turbo Buick guys, but unfortunately, my 87 GN is still out in Las Vegas. My wife and I recently moved back here to WI from Las Vegas and are still trying to get everything settled. Anybody from up in the Sturgeon Bay/Door County area?

All Buick guys & gals welcome!
The GN can't be there - bring it next time! You're welcome without one. Lets see - You're maybe a little over 3 hours to Madtown. If you can't make it - go enjoy a 1/2# fresh ground hamburger on thick sliced homemade white bread at Birmingham's. Maybe you know it - on the bay-side North of Sturgeon Bay. It's almost as good as a TurboBuick picnic!:wink:
Yea I guess I better give it a bath - had it out early today. Hardly anyone on the road on Sunday morning.
Glad you'll make it - It'll be good to see that sweet Limited. Long range forecast is good so far.

Hi Bob,
Please count me in.
I will be bringing the 87 limited you saw at the midwest meet in chicago last year. I am looking forward to seeing all the sweet buicks and also hope you "dust off" your white t and bring it to the party!

I'm not going to be able to make this event. My daughter is getting married on that day. I think I would be shot if I went to this event instead of the wedding.
I do look forward to meeting all of the local turbo Buick people in the future though.
If any of you happen to be in the Sturgeon Bay area, stop in at The Pembrooke Inn for a cup of coffee. My wife and I recently bought the place and would like to show all of you some hospitality.

My uncle taught me how to cope - Smile , open a cold vitamin BLEE, nod & say 'Uh Huh' a lot. He lived to an annoyingly happy old age!
Keith I don't know how I missed you at Byron! Probably too much vitamin BLEE over the years.

I was there...I would have been that guy who was tip-toeing around, drooling over all the buicks.:biggrin: I don't really know anyone yet except JDP and Austin...they seem to know everybody! Just look for the Hot Air car that someone dumped WAAAYY too much $$$ into...that would be me.

Good to see the posts ...
Great!
Around 25-30 people. Hey Dave the family could come separate - its a picnic w/play area - they could leave whenever - I know kids.
Hope to see you Lloyd.
Thats great - Very glad to hear form you Prasad!
It looks like about 15 Turbo Buicks right now - I was hoping to see at least 20, soooo if you can think of anyone who might want to caravan w/you - round 'em up. There are a couple people who will be there but will drive something other than a Buick - that's great - they all appreciate these cars anyway.
The weather is still looking good - I'm watching the radar too.
There are quite a few people that said they'd be coming but have kinda dropped out of sight. Its a busy time of year before school etc. and the economy is tough on lots of folks, but hopefully they are still planning and can find a way to make it.
Someone asked what EXIT on the BELTLINE HWY (12/18).
Going East or West look for:
Exit 264 - South Towne Dr.
and drive South. Here's a small map and a larger printable zip file.
There is lots of good food - See you Sat.
We should have everything set up by 10 AM and will be in and out of the park many times before that.

Thanks - Looking forward to meeting you & your future turbo Buick owners!
Play area waiting!
The blue skies and sun are cracking thru the gray right now - looks like it'll be a fine day for a road trip.

Someone who doesn't have Paypal or at the last minute decides to make the drive can donate to cover expenses (park reservation, picnic spread & bottled water) when you get here. Bring your own beverage of choice - BYOB.
The weather looks great for turbo's - see ya.

If you're not too far away and not busy, Bob said people are welcome to show at the last minute. I'm heading out to wash the GN now, one advantage of being 23 miles away.
