Hello All-

I just wanted to let you all know that the Great Lakes Jeep Thing is holding it's 8th Annual Toys for Tots 4x4 Run in Chicago on 12/10/2006. Last December, KJBOL and PIXELDZN (I'm the better half) showed up to represent for LOST. It was a lot of fun. I met a lot of really nice people. Plus it also helped out a good cause. There was a good amount of time to decorate your Jeep. Which made the event that much more merrier.

Seriously... How often will you be able to see a caravan of 250 plus 4x4s rolling down Lake Shore Drive?

I saw about 20 "Santa"s driving Jeeps... which is classic all on it's own!

If any of you are interested in more details here is a link:
http://www.gljt.org/modules.php?name=Ne ... cle&sid=42


Date: Dec. 10th

Meet: McCormick Place parking lot "B". (Truck marshalling area, south McCormick, same as last year)

Details: Line up begins at 8:30
Parade leaves at 10:00am!

If any on you may be interested let me know I will try to get us all registered together.

Attending:
1 & 2. Carmellas/PIXELDZN (possibly the kids)

Just wondering, do you have to be a member of LOST MidWest to join in (although hubby & I have been thinking about joining)?

Is there a particular spot where LOST MidWest meets up before going to to McCormick or do you just meet there? If you need contact info for me, feel free to send me an email
(glyding underscore frog at yahoo dot com).

Last year we sort of got together before hitting the marshaling area , that way ensured all of us being in the same contiguous spots - so we probably can do that as well this year - keep watching this thread - we should post something soon

I'm interested. I've already registered at GLJT's site. But I would be interested in meeting up with some LOST Midwest folks before going down to McCormick Place.

The best way to do this is meet anywhere before getting close to Chicago - once you enter the marshaling area, going to be hard to get all LOST members together

How about K-Mart Parking lot off of the Kennedy Expwy at Addison?
Take Addison East, it is right there.

BTW - I'm coming by myself this time - better half is traveling

I'll ask Pixeldzn, they might be bringing both the KJ & the Rubi...
But probably somewhere around 8:00 to 8:30 am? - we can always have something to do over there for 1.5 hrs.
