Fellow FL Kat Packers,
Well the spring is finally on its way. We have come up 2 events for the spring and hope that one or both may get your attention. We keep trying to do something a bit different each time and we think you’ll see we have. I know the dates may not coincide with your schedules and we’re sorry about that. We hope that you can make one of the events. If not, we’ll see you next time.
PLEASE EMAIL ME BACK AS SOON AS POSSIBLE SO WE CAN MAKE ALL THE NECESSARY ARRANGEMENTS. FLKATPACK@CFL.RR.COM
The 2nd Annual “JIM WARNER MEMORIAL CRUISE”: APRIL 15-17, 2011
This year we will start this event at the Yalaha Bakery (http://www.yalahabakery.com/ ), near Tavares, FL ( 8210 County Road 48, Yalaha, FL 34797-3193 ). We will meet there at 8AM.
From there we will drive north to the Univ. of FL Natural History Museum (http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/ )outside Gainesville, FL
After touring the Museum and butterfly gardens, etc. we will travel to The Yearling Restaurant (http://www.yearlingrestaurant.net/) in Cross Creek for lunch (14531 E County Road 325, Hawthorne, FL 32640-8318 ).
From there we will travel to Devil’s Millhopper Crater (http://www.floridastateparks.org/devilsmillhopper/) outside Gainesville, FL (11101 Millhopper Rd, Gainesville, FL 32653-2723 ).
After that stop we will travel on to St. Augustine for the evening and possibly another quick stop on the way outside Palatka if time permits. Lodging will be forthcoming when I have a firm commitment from the attendees.
Macon/Biloxi/New Orleans Event: May 19-22, 2011
A new event. We will meet in Ocala at the Cracker Barrel next to I-75 on Thursday morning, TBA. From there we will drive north to Warner Robin Air Force Museum (http://www.museumofaviation.org/ )just outside of Macon, GA
After touring the museum, we will retire to Macon for the night.
On Friday, we will drive to Mobile, AL and tour the USS Alabama/USS Drum exhibits (http://www.ussalabama.com/ ).
We will then drive to Biloxi.MS for the night and the next day (SAT).
On Saturday, those wishing to drive to New Orleans for the day can do so and the others can stay in Biloxi or cruise the surrounding area. We will stay Sat. night in Biloxi also.
On Sunday we will drive back to FL driving along the west coast on US 98, stopping for lunch and then continuing on until we reach an area that we need to split up to all get back to our respective towns
