If someone has one of those programs where you can place pins (what towns were all at) on a map and post it that would be a great way to tell, I work better with pictures.
Bingo. The GR group would head north to meet up with the Mt. Pleasant group. this would insure people only travel E,W, and N. Never going south.

37 Would be an interesting route. It's all going to depend on where the majority of the group is coming from. If theres a sizeable number coming to GR (so far, most) i would be fine with 37.

Added.

We will map out the routes when it gets closer and we have a complete list. We have a lot of options, and I'm sure we can find or make a route that works for all of us. It will probably be several groups on several routes with a common funnel point to form one big group.

As many of us will be interested in attending Blessing of the Jeeps this year (April 30th, 2011), the point of this thread is to maintain a roster of those interested in meeting up before hand and driving up together. Nothing better then a huge line of Jeeps storming up US-131

We would need to select an area common to us all to meet before making the drive north, which we can do when everyone has checked in. When replying please make a clear statement of your intent to join this group so i can modify the roster. If i miss you, please PM me so i can add you.

I need your username and home town, like shown below. I have started the list at 10 and will add as we go. If you are under 21 please let me know so that we can make this meeting friendly to all of us.

***********
PRE-REGISTRATION for the actual event is done through the website (http://www.cadillacjeepers.com/) and will open up in mid Febuary. You do NOT need to register, you can pay when you show up at the event. The cost of the event is $5 per vehicle to enter the event. If you want to go on the track it is $20 per driver. This information is directly from Jake on 1/30/11.
