Are there any planned XF gathering events for April/May in the South? GA, TN, etc? No Spring Dragon event? Eureka Springs AR is too far and too hot there in June.
Dean? Lori? Mark? Gary? Anyone?

 

No more Dragon events at all anymore.
Nothing I know of but there is an Athens, Ohio GTG June 1,2,3,4 and of course the Ozarks June 11,12,13,14,15
I am attending both events !!!

 

Lars - Here's a link to Smoky Mountain Drives. These monthly events are probably full for the spring. They fill up fast.

 

Here's a link to Car Shows & Cruise-Ins in Upstate SC. Probably can find something similar in the areas you're interested in.

 

Here's a link to MotorportReg Calendar. Just look for upcoming events in the areas you're interested in.

 

Does anyone have any interest in a Crossfire gathering/meet-up event in Northwest/Northeast GA or Middle/Eastern Tennessee in later April or May? Nothing overnight, just a day trip?
There are some excellent wineries/vineyards that make for a great meeting place to enjoy some local wines, live music and the beautiful mountain air. Show off our cars and such.
Big Door Vineyards between Cartersville and Canton GA offers a large beautiful winery grounds, tasting room, outdoor pavilions, food trucks, and more. (Personal friend is Proprietor).
https://bigdoorvineyards.com/ Check it out. Others are Chateau Meichtry, check out https://www.chateaumeichtry.co/ and many others.
A Saturday afternoon, midday meet-up works great. Usually have food trucks at events.
Post here if any interest. If we get 5-10 more interested then we can explore some dates.
April 15/16th, April 22/24th, April 29/30th, May 13/14th, May 20/21st, Memorial Day Weekend May 27/28/29th.

 

There is a chance a few will do a Dragon/Fontana Lodge weekend this April, but not as a formal event. I can't attend this time anyway as I"m headed to Michigan to visit my kids in May for up to three weeks.
If anyone is interested in doing that, I'd invite them to post in this thread like dedwards did.

 

Roberta & I would be interested. All the dates you've suggested are okay with us except the last 2 weeks of MAY.

My wife and I are interested. We've been talking about taking a weekend to explore N. GA this Spring. We'd welcome the opportunity to meet up with other owners.

It is a four hour drive for us from home to Rome, GA. We are interested for any of the dates other than Easter weekend and will spend a night in Rome before we head home the following day.
Winery tours sound good. Steve & Jessie

 

I provided a link to this thread on the three main Crossfire Facebook pages.

 

Here's another possibility: Creekstone Winery, 295 Hardman Farm Rd, Sautee Nacoochee, GA

 

And another: Victoria Valley Vineyards

 

And another: Tiger Mountain Vineyards

 

And don't forget the Bourbon Trail starting in Chattanooga, TN with George Dickel Distillery.

 

We are always ready to do a spring GTG in or around the Smoky's. Keep us posted!

 

Depending on timing, we could make the trip up there. My daughter lives in Cleveland, GA, so it would be a good excuse for us.

 

The Fontana Dam Village Lodge is still in business...we could schedule our usual Spring GTG. Anyone interested?

 

Not that we’re aware of. We may do a Tech Day, or we could do a small grass roots weekend. If someone wants to organize something for May, we might join if Dean has his car fixed.

 

That would be this weekend! But you could do it in April some weekend... I still say: Easter is THE weekend up there, WAY lighter traffic. ; )
