I am going to host the meet at the Swigart Auto Museum on the morning/afternoon of Saturday June 20th. And in the afternoon we will take a cruise to get something to eat and then take a nice cruise down to the lake. (More info on this below). By looking at the Google maps you may think that there isn't enough parking but there is. Swigart staff informed me that we can take up the parking lot and all of the grass in front and if needed we can park on the sides as well. If you wish to camp at the lake on Sunday that is up to you.
