I have made 12x18 posters. Will have them at Okteenerfest to sell. Any left I will offer to anyone who wants one.

Bob and Nadine did a great job planning out the routes for today's drives! It was a lot of fun, some great roads and views!!

Mike had to "back up the truck" to unload all of the goodies he secured from the very generous sponsors. Way to go Mike!

And Steve, well, he did a wonderful job on the graphics design, the t-shirts, the posters, and the pictures that each participant in the car show got of their car. My wife wants to frame it! Thank you Steve!!

We met lots a great folks and made some new friends!! Fantastic weekend!

When is registration opening for next year? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

WOW! What a weekend. A huge thanks to everyone that came. We really appreciate your support.

A really special thanks to Bob, Nadine, and Steve. Can't think of a better group to go through the insanity with.

Can't thank our sponsors enough for their support. There were some really happy people leaving the event.

Time for a little rest then start planning for next year.

Made it home (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cheer.gif)
I think this winter will see my LE on jackstands for some much needed repairs both body and mechanical (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

A big THANK YOU to all the attendees. It was the first time for about a third of them... hope they come back (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Tried to get an aerial shot of all the cars at the car show (someone counted 62 but I only took pictures of 56 as they entered the field (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) ) but I forgot the battery charger for my drone and it was a complete fail (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

I will be posting all the cars on the Okteenerfest web site plus set up a a way for everyone to upload their images to the gallery. Basically, register on the site and then follow the link.

I would like to personally thank Bill Dunster for troubleshooting my 914 and getting it running, Doug Leehr for the loan of a starter, and Brad Mayeur for all his expert advice and support. And... someone gave me some points... I don't remember who that was but Thank You!

Bob, Nadine, Mike, and Kim... without you this event would not exist. Thanks for bringing my idea to full life. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

Love this little guy (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wub.gif) Being raised right! He's been to EVERY Okteenerfest plus the day drive the year before this event was started.

Simply the best car event I have ever attended. Hands down. If you weren't there, there is only one thing to say - Why not? And see you next year. Don't miss it.

Thank you to Steve, Mike, Bob, and all of those involved in putting it together. We also owe a big thanks to the sponsors. Amazing swag and parts.

I won the "newbie" award and would like to thank everyone I met--what a great bunch of men & women. The best weekend I have had in years. Thanks to Bob, Nadine, Bill, Ali, several Steve's, Robbie, Joe, Bill (from Miami), Brad, Cliff, Peter and about 90 other folks. You all made my wife & myself feel welcome and shared your passion for the 914. I am looking forward to next year when we will have our car to attend the event with and someone else can claim the "newbie" award. Thanks to all the sponsors for the great "stuff" and the tips/info. Wow!!!

Jim & Sue and the anticipated black 74

What a great weekend, and to think I almost didn't make it over a .50 cent piece keeping the car from running! So glad I persisted.
Nice to final meet Peter and his son and so many others of you. Nice to see Doug L again and finally meet his father Bill (since my car spent many months in his garage (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) ). Can't wait for next year, hope I can bring all three of my Teeners with friends and drive them all!

I hope others post more pictures, the RRC thread is putting us to shame. We had a lot of beautiful cars and people to enjoy them with, let's share the experience wit those that could not make it.

Shameless plug for my 75 copper metalic. Still needs work , but despite 143,000
Miles, I got an average of 34mpg on this trip, just need to deal with it running on the hot side.

PICTURES!!!
to make it easy for all the pictures to be in one place and so we can all share them:

First: go to the Okteenerfest Website
Second: On the right hand side, you will see the link to sign in, or register if you have not already.
Third: Once you register/sign in, you will see Upload Your Photos, where you can pick each photo you want to upload. (sorry, can't do bulk uploads)

Simple!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif)

To View all the photos uploaded, go to the top of the page where it says PHOTOS, click on the drop down, go to 2015 Gallery. There you will see all the pictures , sorted into different categories.
