2009 Corvette Caravan

By now you probably read the email on the corvette caravan. If you are thinking about attending I have attached the information below on how to secure your room in Bowling Green so we can all stay at the same hotels.
We will be leaving from Grossman Chevrolet in Burnsville on September 1st. We will caravan there, for their “Meet and Greet” breakfast and then depart at 8:00 am. We will be traveling with the MN, SD, & ND caravan to Beloit, Wi. where we will pick up there caravan. From there we will travel to Bloomington, Illinois where we will stay for the night.
Also attached is the info on how to reserve a room there. At 8:00 am we will leave for Effingham, where we will join the Illinois and Iowa caravan. Then we will tour Mike Yager’s museum and Mid America. From there its on to Bowling Green arriving around 6:00 pm. The Celebration schedule should be out in January with all the details.
We have reserved 15 rooms for our club to attend the Caravan Celebration in Bowling Green. We were able to contact a gentleman by the name Ron Cohen, from LA at Gorilla Travel. He has set aside 15 rooms for our club in Bowling Green, Ky. and if you make reservations you have until Memorial Day 2009 to cancel.
Each person needs to contact Mr. Cohen at gorillatravel@aol.com on your own and make your own reservations for Sept. 2,3,4,5 2009. You will need to give the following information when you send the email.
- Advise you are booking from the block of rooms held for Brad Fluck for Crow River Corvettes.
- You need to advise you are with the Minnesota caravan.
- You will need to let them no number of beds, any special needs (ie handicap or what ever) smoking or non.
- How to contact you, email address, phone and mailing address.
- Need to give your credit card information to hold room (no charges will be made on card it
will be needed just to hold room).
No phone calls, everything in the email and all the information is needed. He did not advise how long he would hold rooms but as I stated you have until Memorial Day to cancel.
My suggestion would be to make reservations now and cancel later if you have to.
Here are 3 hotels where the Minnesota caravan will be staying in Bloomington. These are the
Hawthorn Suites (309-829-8111),
Ramada Limited & Suites (309-828-0900),
and Holiday Inn Express West (309-820-9990).
You need to call direct to get the special rates. The code for all three is NCM09 and rates are:
Hawthorn $75 for Studio, $85 for Double or Double with Kitchen, $95 for One Bedroom or Presidential.
Ramada $59 Queen, $69 2 Queens, or $79 for Suite.
Holiday Inn Express is $92 for Double, King or King with wet bar.
There are many other hotels at that exit (Market Street and I74/55) if you prefer a different chain or these hotels are full. For all the up to date information on the caravan go to: www.corvettecaravan.com/ and click on Minnesota.
