Eddie and Michelle are in, sounds like a fun times. Thank you Lance for setting it up.
This is largely the work of the AZ Club. It has been a great pleasure working with them and the Nor Cal and Central Cal Clubs.
I know Arizona will have 10 to 15 cars driving out for this, so it will be a big group heading up to San Simeon.
I highly recommend that you make hotel reservations early as the room block was not real big.
Also strongly suggest that you make your Hearst Castle tour reservations early too as these will also fill up quickly
Will and Gina will be going
For those that have already made your hotel reservations,
Please use the following link to register for the dinners: http://www.azvipersclub.com/pch-run-form.html (http://www.azvipersclub.com/pch-run-form.html)
For those that have not yet made a hotel reservation, we urge you to do so soon as room availability is limited. Don't forget to register for the dinners with the link above.
Angel and Azi will be there! Sounds like a lot of fun, can't wait to hang out with you guys.
I'm in +1
We are in!
Randy and Diane
Space is running out on this event already !
Only have room for 17 more people so if you want to join us for the run, I would do so quickly !
It will sell out.
Great news is that the event is almost sold out already ! Bad news is that there are literally only a small handful of spots left. We have a great showing from all the regions involved and it will be great to hang out with everyone.
The Arizona Club members are going to extend their stay in California by a day or two and head north on Pacific Coast Highway on up to Monterey.
For any of you that would like to also extend your stay and make the drive with them, PLEASE email Pete ASAP so that they can get the room block set for the hotel up in Monterey.
Pete's email is :
[email protected]Saturday is a loosely planned day and the majority of us will be touring Hearst Castle. Tickets for the tour are now available on their website http://hearstcastle.org/tour-hearst-castle/daily-tours/
If this is your first visit there, Tour 1 is the best all around tour to see a wide variety of the Castle.
Plan you tour time accordingly. For those that would like, many of the others will be driving over to Paso Robles to visit a winery or two where we have made arrangements to eat lunch. This is completely optional but I know that many of the Nor Cal and Central Cal folks wlll be heading over there.

There are only 2 more spots left and we will have a sold out event ! Gonna be a really fun weekend.
I'm in and registered
Always fun hooking up with our neighboring regions and going to the Central California coast was a much needed weekend retreat.
We have become accustomed to perfect weather and this weekend was no exception. We were treated with beautiful clear blue skies and amazing views from the mountains to the crashing ocean waves.
I have pictures up on my website www.kouchicentral.com (http://www.kouchicentral.com)
Here are just a few.
