DeLorean Mid Atlantic Holiday Event DeLorean Mid Atlantic is going to be having an informal holiday get together. The plan is to try to get as many DeLoreans as we can together to attend a Holiday Parade that is going to be held in Ship Bottom, N.J., which is located on Long Beach Island. The parade is going to be televised locally as well. The parade will take place on Saturday December 4th. The parade starts at 1pm but lineup begins at 11am. It is better to get to the lineup as early as possible as the parade is usually large in size. The plan will be for us to meet up starting at 10:00 am on December 4th. We will leave the meeting place sharply at 11:15 am and proceed to the line up area. Have your Family Band radios on Channel 12. After the parade we will go to a nearby restaurant for an informal late lunch. This will be a one day event basically. However for those interested in coming in Friday there is lodging info below for a motel that is only two blocks away from the line up area, and right next to our meeting place Saturday. Also I know some members have expressed interest in coming in Friday December 3rd and going to Atlantic City and staying there. Rates are usually cheaper on Friday night and very reasonable. In any event that is the plan. Please email me ASAP to let me know if you plan to attend so I can get an idea of how many cars to expect. Details will be posted on our club website.
