Make your plans now to attend the 2006 Summer Chattanooga Chrysler & Imperial Meet. http://home.chattanooga.net/~soule/ We had an excellent meet last year in Chattanooga and we are looking forward to another fine meet this summer in Chattanooga. Tons of pictures with accompanying text of last year's Summer Meet in Chattanooga can be found below and at the Imperial Online Club at: http://www.imperialclub.com/Events/index.htm Last year's meet was a blast and this years should be just as much fun, if not more. And remember -- this meet is open to *ALL* C Body Chrysler products! So polish that chrome, wax that paint, shine those tires, and come to the Summer Chattanooga Chrysler & Imperial Meet in Chattanooga, TN, on May 26th, 27th, 28th, and 29th. *Registration: There is no registration fee for this meet. However, we request that you PLEASE REGISTER http://home.chattanooga.net/~soule/ so we will know who is attending, what cars to expect, how many attendees will be at the Friday night dinner at the drive-in, the Saturday lunch at the Railroad Museum, and the Saturday cookout at the Soule's.
Friday Dinner - May 26th - We will meet at the Soule residence at 5:00 PM and caravan to the Soddy-Daisy Sonic for dinner.
Saturday - May 27th - Meet and drive, kick tires, share stories, tell lies, drool, etc., at the Soule home. We have planned to take a 20 mile trip to the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum for lunch (at 12:00 noon) in a vintage 1940s dining car the "Greenville." We can order lunch from the dinning car that will be prepared and delivered to us from the Grand Junction Depot Deli. The Railroad Museum has a very nice pine thicket picnic area located next to a grass field that would be available for parking. The Museum will be operating their vintage steam locomotive and running trains between their two stations all day. The roundtrip only takes about an hour and might be something we could do as a group. For more information about the Tennessee Valley Railroad Museum follow this link: http://www.tvrail.com
Saturday - Dinner, informal hamburger/hot dog cookout at 7:00 PM EDT at the home of Robert and Laqueta Soule. After dinner, I expect we will show some Chrysler product films/videos, such as dealer ads, sales training stuff, and/or old television ads later in the evening. I am sure there will be more tire kicking and driving as this went on until past midnight last year. We will also have a bond fire burning all evening for those who might enjoy roasting marshmallows and enjoy cocktails around the warmth of a night fire. Please note this is a BYOB event.
Sunday - May 28th - Most of us will be kicking tires, driving cars, tell more lies... basically the same thing we are doing Saturday evening. Those that wish to are welcome to explore the Scenic Chattanooga area. Enjoy fine motoring in your Imperial or Chrysler product to such attractions as Lookout Mountain, Rock City, Ruby Falls, the Chattanooga Choo Choo, the Chattanooga Aquarium, the Walnut Street Bridge, and many more! There is no shortage of things to do in Chattanooga. Here is a link to all kinds of Chattanooga attractions: http://www.chattanoogafun.com/ However, if you would rather just kick tires, drive cars, tell more lies... with us all day then that is just fine! We will be more than glad to have you.
