Good day everyone:

The Carolina Chapter is hosting an event on April 28th that will involve runs of the Tail of the Dragon, a car enthusiasts road in Western NC.

While for some folks, this is obviously too far to drive for a day, there is still a point to this. The event is benefiting the Wounded Warrior Project, which is a great charity. We are holding a raffle, and you don't have to attend to win one of the multitude of great prizes that have been donated to help the cause. All proceeds go to the WWP, so if you are interested in donating to this charity and possibly winning some great prizes please head over to the events site, listed below, for more details!

Also, if you are close enough to attend, there is information on times and whatnot for the actual event on the 28th!

Thanks for your time,

Ok what is the time table. On the ride I might be able to come and I know that there is details on the other thread but I not much of one going through 15 Pages to find it. I just havent ever heard anything defintive about where the stops are and when.

 

Please check back here later tomorrow (today at this point). I'll get ahold of, or get someone else to post up the itinerary for those who'd like to attend the event.

If you are from NC, please PM me and I can help you figure out a place near you that other participants are meeting at the cruise to the Dragon from, as a group. If you are from another state, check out the regional chapters portion of the site (near the top of the forums home page) and see if your state has a thread on the event. If so, post there and see if anyone else is coming that you could cruise with, and if not, start a thread and see if anyone wants to join in for the day.

I will get ahold of the planners and figure out the exact timing for you BWfVA and anyone else interested. Thanks for pointing out that it isn't on the site I linked.
