  • Spring FestivaL '12 (Reloaded)

    There's yet another meet about to happen in South Carolina. There are currently a few 'solids', like where and on what day the meet will occur. Mark your calendars for April 14th. These are the coordinates: 34.534702,-82.801655. To those who came to the meet last year, you already know that that means the KOA Kampground in Pendleton (Anderson).

    Housing:
    *RESERVATION LINK* There are 8 air-conditioned cabins (with wi-fi and flat-screen cable TV) and 2 park model homes, as well as several campsites. Please reserve your housing as soon as you possibly can so we can again take over the campground! If you reserve your cabin, please post which one you reserved so others will know what's available, and whether or not you'd prefer to split the cost with anyone if there are extra beds. If you would rather stay in a hotel, there are many options 5 miles north, and the only stipulation of the campground is that those who will not be staying at the campground must leave by 10PM.

    Food:
    Barbecue seems to be a big deal with the Festiva community, and Pendleton offers some of the best around at The Smokin' Pig. What say you? Would you rather eat at the covered Pavilion at the campground and have (huge!) barbecue sandwiches (pork, chicken, brisket) catered, or would you like to convoy to the actual restaurant (2 miles) and order from the full menu (full BBQ chicken, ribs, etc.)? I'll post the menu ASAP. ***NOTE*** Please vote in the poll. It will help to get an outlook of interest. The benefit of the catered meal is that you can pay for it in advance (through Paypal) and you won’t need to pay for it at the meet. Sides to be determined.
    If you choose to bring your own food, charcoal grills are available throughout the campground.

    Also, Mr. Neanderpaul plans to entertain with his musical skills!

    As I did last year, I'm still trying to get some info on an autocross event open to everyone (if you have a helmet, seat belt, and $30) interested, although I understand that some drivers will not attempt this because of lack of a support trailer. PM me if you're at all interested.

              Pending the success I have getting my Virginia festiva running good, you can count me in.
              Driving for me is neither a right nor a privilege. Driving is my passion, as it was for the people who invented the automobile, the people who paved the first roads and the people who continue to improve the automobile. Please respect this passion.

                If no one from the future stops you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?

                        We will be there, hopefully with all four of our cars if we can find one more spare driver. Mom and dad have both agreed to bring one up there for us, but I'd hate to have to leave one car behind
                        No festiva for me ATM...

                              MEET SCHEDULE

                              Kampground registration is at noon. I want to make sure everyone has arrived and settled into their respective areas before we have lunch. PLEASE NOTE: There have only been four votes in the poll. I have contacted The Smokin' Pig and they are willing to reserve a room for us if we convoy there, depending on the number of attendees. This is not an immediate concern, but I will need to know by mid March if the convoy (2 miles, 2 traffic lights) is the top choice.

                              OFFICIAL MEET: 12PM 14th
                              LUNCH : ~2PM (convoy?)
                              BARTER: TBA
                              Open Schedule 'til 9:30 AM 15th.
                              All visitors not staying @ KOA must vacate the kampground by 10PM.
                              BRUNCH @ Golden Corral 10AM for all interested.
                              Hotel information to follow as time allows.

                              LOCAL INFO:
                              All who need fuel, there is a Hickory Point gas station at Exit 14 (KOA exit) that sells both ethanol and non-eth gas. Southbound travelers will see it as they turn. Northbound, turn left across the bridge.

                              Walmart/Sam's Club
                              Exit 19A, then turn left at the 5th light. Immediately get into the right hand lane and go through 1 light. Turn lane takes you into WM plaza.
