Greetings friends, A few months ago a friend of mine suggested that I try to get a few of my D buddies to come out to Ponchatoula when we have the local Strawberry Festival. The idea was to attempt getting Ds into the parade and the car show that is held every year. The Strawberry Festival is the largest FREE two day festival in the state of Louisiana. This festival takes place in the month of April. I do not know the set date yet. It draws in crowds in excess of 225,000 each year. Lets show these people what a D is! I have already talked to a woman named Kathryn Rinker who is a member of the Ponchatoula Chamber of Commerce. She has assured me that if I can get the participation from my fellow DMLers that we will make it into the parade and that there will be a reserved (and secure) parking place for the cars. I am hoping that we can make this a Strawberry Festival to remmember for many people who have never seen the D. This is a family event and it may be a easy way to pull your families onto a little DeLorean trip. If we can get enough people to show up I will talk to Steve Wynne of DMC and see if he would like to come out and give a tech seminar to the owners. For info on what the festival is all about visit http://www.ponchatoula.com/strawberry/index.html Please try to email me if you would like to be part of this event. I need to get a number of the people that would like to have their cars in the event. Email me directly at SteveDMC@xxxx I will try to call Kathryn Rinker by next week letting her know how many people would like to attend. Thankyou for "Living the Dream" Steve Rice ------------------------------------------------------------------------ eGroups.com home: http://www.egroups.com/group/dmcnews http://www.egroups.com - Simplifying group communications
