2013 PAC Official National Meet Info
Posted by RogerDetroit On 2013/1/27 11:05:11
Hello All:
Here is your first look at the 2013 PAC National Meet to be held in Pontiac, Michigan. I have attached the following items for your review:
1. Neighborhood location map
2. Hotel information sheet with reservation links to the 3 Marriott hotels on campus
3. Summary of Schedule of Events
If the site looks familiar to you, then it is because we are returning to the same host hotel we used for the 2006 PAC National Meet. The main hotel is the Marriott and we have also reserved a limited number of rooms at the Courtyard by Marriott and the Marriott Residence Inn just across the street. Choose the amenities and price point of the hotel that best suits your needs.
When you look at our Schedule of Events you will notice that on several days you will not be able to do everything. You will have to make a choice of what you want to see and do.
National Meets held in Detroit tend to be twice as large as a standard PAC Meet. For example, at the 2006 National we had 371 Master Registrations, 825 guests and 197 Packards. Our goal is to equal those numbers. So, when we have that number of people coming to town it is difficult to get everyone into one place all at once. Therefore, we have multiple events scheduled for Tuesday and Friday.
We start the week on Sunday, June 23 with a driving tour in the countryside to an amazing car collection where we will have an Ice Cream Social. Monday, June 24 is reserved for a Picnic at the PPG. Tuesday, June 25 we have two bus tours - you have to make a choice between the historic auto sites in Flint or Detroit. Wednesday, June 26 is reserved for PAC Meetings, Swap Meet Luncheon, afternoon visit to the GM Heritage Collection and a Dinner Cruise on the Detroit River. Thursday, June 27 is Judging Day and that will be held at a park in Rochester, Michigan. Friday, June 28 holds three different tours: (1) historic Detroit (2) Greenfield Village & Henry Ford Museum and (3) tours of the Dick & Linda Kughn collection and Roush Racing. The Awards Dinner is in the evening.
We have six, fun-filled days for you and some of the best events start early in the Meet. Motor City Packards only hosts a National Meet about every ten years. Where will you be and what age will you be in 2023? This may be your last opportunity to attend a Packard National Meet in Detroit. We want to see you here this June.
Complete registration materials will be posted by next weekend.
Thanks, --Roger--
