I`m In David! I vote 4/13 or 4/20, I`ve got a baby shower in WV for my wife one weekend, then vacation the next, then a detail the next.

**C. Charles Hahn** · 03-10-2013, 02:23 PM

I`m definitely in! At this point I think any of those dates would work for me.

**Paul Sparks** · 03-10-2013, 02:31 PM

All of those dates look good at this time. You know my number if any help is needed.

**Alex Boyce** · 03-10-2013, 02:54 PM

If we decide on one of the two days I can attend we could all meet at my house and car pool, I live about 10 minutes away from Great Lakes Chemical (assuming that is one of the shops we are going to). Just a option I wanted to throw out there.

Excellent suggestion Alex! Yes, Great Lakes is one of them.

The GLC in Kzoo, or the one in GR?

**Paul Sparks** · 03-10-2013, 03:37 PM

Looking for members to carpool with from Indy in my crew cab.

Leaning more towards the GR location. The 2nd shop (which I need to talk to) is in GR too.

**Leadfootluke** · 03-10-2013, 04:25 PM

I`m in for any of the dates at the moment.

**derek37** · 03-10-2013, 06:09 PM

4/13 or 4/20 is good for me. David, is the other Crystal Clean?

Would like it to be. Just gotta run this by Ross.

If we all want to meet somewhere before the tour, talk about some things, I could probably reserve us a spot somewhere, show up as a group before hitting the shops.

Probably not a bad plan; looks like both shops are within a mile of each other and not too far off from the "main drag." My vote would be to see if we can get in to Quaker Steak & Lube over on 28th. Depending on the size of group they should be able to accommodate us, and the food is good.
