I have been to Reno several times as I ski in Tahoe all the time. I could put together a little scenic drive of the Tahoe area. We could just drive along the lake or we could stop by one of the ski resorts. Squaw (on the north shore) and Heavenly (on the south shore) have gondolas that run all year around that will take you to the top of the mountain (for a fee of course). Squaw is interesting as it was the site of the 1960 winter olympics. The view from the top of Heavenly is just stunning as you can see the Lake Tahoe (one of the deepest and clearest lakes in the world). You can't see the lake from High Camp at Squaw.
Did you know the Ponderosa (where the filmed Bonanza) is in Tahoe? They have tours and stuff going on there. I'm a little to young to have seen the show, but I'm sure some folks here remember it. I seem to remember that pdsides knows somebody at the Auto Museum and offered to help arrange a tour. If we want to book a tour, we should contact him. If you guys want me to put together a drive, let me know. Matt |

Thank you Matt!
Please do put together a couple of different drives for us and then we can decide. Mitch has already arranged things with the museum, but I think he needs to tell us (HEY MITCH! Are you reading? ) what the actual plans are. I know we can really make this thing come together!

Thanks Michelle!
I really wasn't looking for an exact play-by-play itinerary, just mostly wanted to someone to step up and say "Yes, there will be an organized Reno meet happening on THIS date in THIS place." And if the Auto Museum is something that is going to happen (ie, we have reservations there), then why not post that information. I realize we have a planning thread, but most of that talk was a long time ago and it is just that: a planning thread. If something is finalized, it should be announced for all to see, and hopefully, sign up for. edit: Actually in looking again, you did post the date and place... well you said Reno, and it isn't that huge a city that you probably need to get more specific. I guess I was just thinking that if there was a little more "promotional stuff" in the first post it might attract more attendees. Like listing that the group will get a special tour of the Auto Museum on such and such day, etc.

AND.......
I need those of you on the sign-up list to let me know if you want one of the rooms I've blocked. For those of you who might have missed it.... I've arranged for us to gather at the Sands Regency Hotel/Casino. I have 11 rooms blocked, so that means that 10 others of you can get in on the room deal. Please PM or email me and I'll get your info. Rooms have to be paid for 3 weeks in advance. That's going to catch up with us quick, so make decisions people! (Hehe! I can't wait!)
