I have not discussed that idea with FP but I am open to the idea.
We will definitely have to line up all the Crossfires for a group photo.
We did the same thing recently at the Woodward Dream Cruise in Michigan with 18 Crossfires. Check out this link...

Lets have lunch at Champs and decide what we'll do from there. The Bears game was just an excuse to get together.

I plan to be there.

Expecting a grand daughter no later than Friday.
Barring any complications, I'll be there after church.

I'm looking forward to it.

YES, this is a date. Make no mistake about it. All are welcome. We will be meeting Sunday September 9 at Champs in Schaumburg, IL. at 11:00 AM. We can have lunch there, and decide if we stay and watch the game, or go for a ride.

See you all there.

The correct spelling and address is:

847-240-1333

Champs is a sporting goods store in Woodfield mall.

Thanks bsb6 for the address correction. It would have been bad if we all ended up at a sports store in the mall named Champs. I sent a pm to everyone who said they will be attending and copied you as well stating the correct address and map link. I could only pm 5 at a time so I sent it out several times to get everyone contacted.

Much thanks again for this correction. See you all Sunday !!

Champps Americana
955 E. Golf Rd.
Schaumburg 60173-4521
847-240-1333

The last one to arrive will have to tell a joke.

See you on Sunday. I am contacting Champps to make a reservation for us, and our cars.

I am assuming all the member who votes 'yes' are attending, minus RPM and Rapp's yellow CF (they've told me they will not be able to make it).
2seater speeder, Blueaero, bsb6, cgt_n_the, Chi-Town SRT/6, draganFP, fflores, FP, harley44, Mabs, stlas69, Uncle_Al, VALKRYDERGUY, XFireHammer will all be counted as joining us. If you are not making it, and have not communicated this to Gary (VALKRYDERGUY), please let Gary or me know.

I really am going to try to make it, but we have a race that weekend in New Athens that I may have to go to, I'm still waiting to hear what's going on with that. But if I'm not at the race I'll be there. Hope to see you guy's and girls.

Looking forward to it... And what will your joke be about?

And I call dibs on the out-of-towner's 1 hour Chicago Traffic/Construction Allowance rule; The rule as suggested states, "Should the arrival time of said vehicle and its occupant be delayed or impeded due to Construction, Traffic, and/or Chicago transit authority or Police department an additional 1 hour extenuation shall be granted to said driver to use at his convenience so that said driver can declare a joke moratorium for said allotment of time, therefore relieving said driver of any undo stress due to joke delivery impairment suffered when he was a child"

LOL...To this is say; Driver of said vehicle should leave an hour earlier if they have a condition suffered when they were a child and are feeling anxiety if telling a joke is expected of them.

Shame on you for taking advantage of a joke impaired person!

See you there!
