I had not put anything on the web site pending issues with the bus tour
and some other issues, but it looks like things are clearing up now.
Thanks for posting the docs.

Hi guys,

The nominal deadline to sign up for the International De Tomaso meeting
in 
Austria/Italy is this coming Thursday.   I just made my arrangements; so
far 
there are 28 Swedes attending, and supposedly around 15 Americans have
signed up, 
plus a half-dozen Brits, and a smattering of French, German, Austrian,
and 
etc. and so forth.   Looks like a good time!

I think the whole tour bus thing fell apart, and good thing too in my
view; 
it's much more fun to rent (or borrow) a car and drive along with the
group.

Although the formal program lasts only for a few days in Italy,
informally 
the event begins two days earlier at a beautiful little mountain resort
in 
Ellmau, Austria, and that's where most of the Eurodudes are converging,
so that's 
where I'm heading first too.

Anyway--who else is attending?   POCA Secretary Jim Gray is the
single-source 
point of contact for American registrants--you send him your completed 
application, and he collects the info and forwards it on to the tourist
agency in 
Modena that's making the hotel bookings etc.

The event hotel is the last of the seven on the list for Modena--the 
Infinity/Le Cardinal.

If you elect to join the group in Austria (highly recommended), you'll
have 
to make your reservations directly with the Sporthotel Ellmau.   Make
sure you 
tell them that you are wanting to join the De Tomaso group.   They had
25 
rooms already taken by the De Tomaso crew when I called this morning;
now between 
Geoff Peters and me, there are 27 rooms taken.

Hope to see some of you there?   

I thought the event info was on the POCA website, but I can't see it in
the 
'events' section?   I know the info was printed in the POCA newsletter a
few 
months back.   If anybody needs me to send them the four-page PDF flyer,
let me 
know.

Wait--I just remembered how easy (and GREAT) the POCA website album is
to 
use.   Okay, I just uploaded the event flyer and an update into my photo
album:

When you click on the thumbnails (from the 2004 event), a new window
will 
open which will have a 'download document' option.   Click that, and the
files 
(PDF and MS Word respectively) will download to your hard drive.

Mike
