Maybe try some different meetings rather than just Hooters in 2012. I think planning on some of the car shows as a club would be good. Several of us have been to Somerset a few times. Cleveland is supposed to have a good monthly show. And don't forget Camaro Fest III in August...

The Breeze got me a name of a fellow in Anderson County that has a dyno. If we all could agree on a date, I'm interested in seeing if he will do a dyno day just to see what the cars are putting out. I know some of us use professional tuners but a local dyno day just for fun might be good.

There are a bunch of local Christmas parades and I see a bunch of car clubs participating in them.

And last and I'll be quiet, we have some of the best mountain cruising roads in the country. Nashville group has mentioned maybe a joint meeting half way between us.

Just some thoughts....maybe we should have an early January meeting to discuss events we might want to participate in as a club during 2012?

I agree with trying to coordinate some of our meets with some of the area car shows and cruise-ins, and not just meeting at the Hooter's in Maryville. I attended multiple cruise-ins this past summer in Rockwood, Harriman, Maryville, Somerset, Seymour and Neuberts in Knoxville. I posted information about the cruise-ins a few times in the summer, but only saw two in our group at the weekly Knoxville cruise-in. Also, I went to two different Christmas parades this past weekend and saw several G5 Camaros and a bunch of Vettes. Probably too late for us to participate in any Christmas parades, but maybe we could make plans for a 4th of July parade in a nearby community. We have the annual Cabin Fever show coming up on 1/13/12 (tentative) and then the Nashville car show at the Fairgrounds the next weekend. I was hoping to attend both, and maybe we could meet up there.
