I was going to register but I think thats only if I want to be in the show, correct?

Since this is the first time that Bimmerfest will be in the East, I'm assuming that all of us are new to this. Unless some of the members have attended the Bimmerfest in the west for the fast years. For now, no information has been mentioned about the details of the fest except for the venue.

I registered so that I can have updates and other informations. No intention to include my the car in the show...it is bone stock.

^ Maybe Im wrong but for the past 3 yrs that Ive been on this forrum there has been a Bimmerfest East. I woulda gone last yr if I wasnt in Europe. As the date aproches there will more than likely be caravans from Montral as well. That being said, we should arrange a meet point with them also.

The website says that this is their first Eastside Bimmerfest.

I'm 70% in...just not 100% sure if I want to torture my baby with such a long drive lol.

The had a east end meet in new jearsey last time (may not be the official bimmerfest). But it was a east end meet that was like the west end bimmermeet.

Asclepius · 05-10-2011, 09:16 AM

^ This isn't your regular kind of cruise. This one involves some good planning so everything runs smoothly. i.e making sure your passport is up-to-date.

Definitely!

Some Heads Up
a. Passport - make sure is valid
b. Suggestion - book a long weekend "Monday Off" vacation minmum 3 days/2nights.
c. Can be considered as a Long weekend family vacation.
d. Book hotel - Maybe a "group dscount" reservation
e. Possible places to visit after the "Bimmerfest Event"
1. Washington DC (1.5 hr. drive from Abardeen, MD) - White House, Lincoln Memorial, Smithsonian/Holocaust Museum, etc.
2. Baltimore City (45 minutes drive) - Inner Harbor
