2017 BCA National Meet - Milwaukee, WI
« on: October 09, 2016, 06:16:10 PM »
It's VERY early for this, but it seems that the host hotel - the Sheraton Milwaukee Brookfield Hotel - is already filling up. So, if you want to stay at the host hotel you might want to hurry.

The meet will be July 5 - 8, 2017. See http://www.buickclub.org/2017-bca-national-meet/

Have the reservations made at the Sheraton. As we talked at the Northwest Ohio gathering, we need to set up a 65GS. meeting at the nationals.

Jon, I grew up in Southern Wisconsin, where are you located.

The BCA will provide a room and time slot for us and it will be on their schedule of events. 

In the past we have also gotten together for lunches and dinners as a group at regionals and nationals.  Makes for a great time to meet and get to know one another.

All

I have reservations at the Sheraton Brookfield for evening Tuesday July 4 through to morning Sunday July 9th.

I may not arrive as early as July 4th but they allow cancellation up to the day before.

((If you need cancellation make sure you read their rules))

I always leave the morning after the Awards Banquet so I have time for Air Flights and or Drive Home.

And so it begins.
