[DML] Expect a Great Time at Cleveland 2000 Show

[Mike Substelny <msubstel@xxxx>]

Ken Koncelik has asked the DCO to cook up some driving events for his
2000 DeLorean Car Show in Cleveland. If you are like me and have a
non-concours DeLorean, these events will give you an excellent reason to
bring your daily-driver to Cleveland.

My wife Patti and I are already working on it, and I guarantee that
anyone who makes the Thursday night Flats Dinner Drive and / or the
Friday morning Driving Tour & Rally will have a wonderful time. We have
a very scenic course plotted that contains lots of good, free stuff. A
tentative list appears below.

By coincidence, the Places Rated Almanac just came out with its annual
report, and Cleveland came in as the second best city to visit for
recreation! New Orleans came in first place. For details, go to this

We will try to take best advantage of many of the amenities listed by
the Almanac for our DeLorean enthusiast visitors next year. Many
excellent places are already a part of Ken's Car Show (Rock Hall,
Science Center, Crawford Auto Museum, Lake Cruise, etc.).

Thursday night's Dinner Drive will show you Public Square and The
Flats. Below is a tentative list of features for Friday Morning's
Driving Tour.

Sights you will see:
Edgewater Park Beach
The Emerald Necklace Park
Shaker Lakes
Cleveland Cultural Gardens
Lakefront State Park
Cleveland Museum of Art (we could stop here if people request it)
Cleveland Museum of Natural History
Fairmount Historic District
Drew Carey's TV House
Various historic locations significant to classic automobile enthusiasts

DeLorean Cadillac (founded by JZD's brother)

Places you will visit:
NASA Lewis Visitor's Center
The Shaker Museum
Coventry Village Shopping Center
President Garfield Memorial

You will have lunch at:
The 100th Bomb Group (WWII aviation theme restraunt)

Except for lunch, everything on the driving tour is free. If anyone has
any requests of sights or stops to include on the tour, please contact
me by private E-mail.

If you have comments to share with the whole DML, please DO NOT include
this entire long message as a quote!
