So of the people who expressed interest in a specific date it looks like the 22nd wins out. I'm sorry if that doesn't work for some of you. I'm going to let Tony know we're interested in March 22nd at 10am for a two hour tour and tell him at this point it looks like we'll make the 30 people mark no problemo. My count as of now is 23 who said they would go. And Monte from the Columbia River Falcon/Comet Club will bring it up at their meeting on March 6th so they may have a few that can join us.

As soon as I hear that we have confirmation with the LeMay Collection people I will email everyone again with all the info and post it here as well.

Should be a blast and hopefully we can all find a place to grab lunch afterwards.

Hi Kenny, Paul and I would love to go on the tour. I think one of my dad's old Jaguar's is in that collection.

Kenny, Have you got a confirmed date/time yet. I would like to go also.

I'll write more in the morning but I just got confirmation today from Tony that we are scheduled for March 22nd at 10am. So mark your calendars and I'll post tomorrow with all the details including directions. I'll also email everyone again.

I'm all in for 2 spots as well. I've got a car friend who'd love to go.

So... can we perhaps arrange a club meeting to coincide with this, like a nice lunch/meeting afterwards? It's high-time we do this. I know we'll have friends with us, but we can make it a quick one. Yes/No?

The Rainier Falcons have confirmation from the LeMay organization for a tour on Saturday, March 22nd at 10:00 a.m. The LeMay collection is located at the Marymoor Academy in Tacoma (Parkland area). Directions to the LeMay Museum:

* From I-5 take the Puyallup/Mt. Rainier exit (Exit 127). This will put you on Highway 512, heading east toward Puyallup.

* Take the Pacific Avenue exit and at the light take a right. You will be heading south on Pacific Avenue to 152nd Street East/Military Road.

* Take a left (east) on 152nd/Military Road, go approximately 1/4 mile.

* Turn left at the LeMay Collection Tours sign and follow road through the entrance gate.

* Park in front of the Museum gift store

325 152nd Street East, Tacoma, WA, (253) 536-2885

The fee for the tour is $15 per person. $5 will be put towards the general funds of the Rainier Falcons and the rest is for The Harold E. LeMay Museum. Please bring cash, the exact amount would be great. Cameras are welcome. Tony also mentioned the woman who will be guiding the tour is very knowledgeable about the collection and was Harold LeMay's assistant for many years. The tour last about 2 hours.

I'm all for that! I'm not familiar with the area at all so I'll let someone else make a suggestion on where to meet.
