Yes, but where? How about that Bear Mountain State Park? Sounded rugged and "Swarm" ready.
It sounds good Blacksambo!Quote:

Well image is everything and "Bear Mountain" certainly sounds the part, if you know what I mean. VX and a shoping mall makes us all out to be sissys. Let's conquer "Bear Mountain"! "Swarm" alert! Bear Mountain assaulted by killer bees! You get my drift.Quote:

I know I camped a night at or damn near Bear Mountain a few years back. So there's something close. I'll try to remember.

Yes, see what the nearby overnite accomodation options might be. Also, if someone is familiar with this site what the motor vehicle and picnic regs might be? (I've never been, I just like the name.)Quote:

Hello everyone !!
Not sure if i can make it at this time,but will update soon.
Momentum is building. (1000 cars! This place sounds ripe for a change,VX "Swarm-wise" that is!) Let's try to organize this shindig, and soon.
I looked into the Wendsday night Bear Mt cruise..40$ :confused: fee for 88 or newer cars??Club Fees? to much for a cruise for me..Older cars are 4$ ....Maybe just a Sunday Swarm? Tony B
I agree Tony, maybe a Sunday picnic event at a park pavillion?Quote:

Thanks Tony. Scope it out and give us an update. Is there a particular Sunday in May that people like? If so, let us know. Thx
Is this meet idea losing steam? Do we need another location? How about Kykuit (Rockefeller Estate) near Tapan Zee Bridge?
Swarm on!!
I made it to Bear Mt Last night..I went with my friend in a 1978 T bird...With 3 /11 year old Triplets and 18 year old daughter ( we there yet?,we there yet? how bout now? we there yet?,ect..stop touching me)100 mile round trip:yesgray:Thank God for pain pills..We got pulled over for seat belt check,and the cop wanted to check out the car.... They had about 100+ cars and 100 Bikes..Free this week and next..Spoke to one of the sponsers..If we call in advance he woud give us a deal? and save parking for us..Still 30-40 $......New Idea we swarm to James Baird park for barbacue and go to overlook drivein for a movie..The park is on the Taconic Parkway and the drive in movie is about 10 miles away??? Tony B
Great reconaissance Tony. What do we think team? James Baird Park? Is it reachable for the majority of those interested? (No problem for us.)Quote:

Okay. But what date?
June 2nd for car show, If my vx is not ready(it should),I will bring one of my friends cars...Or one of you pick a day... There also is another KOA park in Gardinar it is called Yogi Bear Jellestone park..about 20 or so miles..full service Koa on the Wallkill river..maybe we could swarm there??? TonyB
I like this Wakill River site idea. Do we have any more info on it, or points of interest near there? Also, is this closer or farther from NYC area?Quote:

So let's shoot for June Two to Swarm on the Wakill River at the Jellystone and have a meet, picnic and some fun. What say group?
That would suck. Got a Spartan Race that day, AND my niece's recital that evening.
I'd hate to miss this gather, and would love to be there if we do it a few weeks later.
