[DeTomaso] Convention ideas

[LaurieFerrari at aol.com]

I would love to work to help plan an event in the San Diego  area.  I have 
the time now and enthusiasm.
My bet would be that many more people would attend in San Diego WITH their  
cars. Those who fly would have great access to flights. There are countless 
 hotels that are geared toward conventions and are reasonably priced.  The  
area is gorgeous... I've attended several events where cars were  displayed 
on grass in Seaport Village right by the water; they  were spectacular.   
So much to see and do there as  well.  Don't underestimate the SD folks 
insofar as willingness to plan  and run the event.  I've seen that they have 
classy tastes while are  conservative on costs.  Please don't out-rule the idea 
before  exploring the possibilities.   While Reno was lovely too  and fun.. 
there were not many cars there, and isn't that the point?

Even if such a location is identified, we would then need local club  
members willing to help plan and execute the event--another  
not-insignificant 
challenge.
