[QUOTE=jbox1]What about Nashville, Tennessee? ... [/QUOTE]

Last time I looked Tennessee was still in the East Region. Hold that thought for 2009.

I think this thread is for suggestions for locations for our next Gathering...please stay on topic.
The agreed upon region(Mid-West), and the states in that region have been posted above. These would be the Blue States.
So far, the suggestions are:
Dallas/Ft. Worth, TX
St. Louis, MO
Branson, MO
Hannibal, MO
Kansas City, KS
Oklahoma City, OK
Eureka Springs, ARK
Hot Springs, ARK
Little Rock, ARK
Rogers, ARK
Ft.Smith, ARK
Conway, ARK
Chippewa Falls, WIS
Bad Lands, Mt. Rushmore, Sturgis, N/S Dakota

It appears that most of the suggestions to date have been for the Branson, MO area.
Feel free to add more places in the region, and any reasons why. I think we still have a little time to decide where, then when.
Are we there yet?

Vette(s): White 1977 coupe, red interior, automatic

Being from Kansas, I am partial to Kansas City.  Just a reminder, there is the Kansas Speedway, KCIR dragstrip, Worlds of Fun, Oceans of Fun, and lots of other things in KC.  Within an hour of KC there is Heartland park in Topeka that has a road race course.  Just my .02 on the subject.

I should suggest Bismarck, just to get a few laughs out of everyone!  LOL
 
South Dakota does have some great places to visit, so that would  be on my list. 
 
I would have to say though that I would like to visit the city where my car was born, so St. Louis gets my vote.

[QUOTE=Adam Wartell] [QUOTE=myrootbeerfloat]Ok the blue statesGeek I say lets measure the map and find the center of the United States Confused Does anyone have a tape measure, ruler, compass perhapsWits%20EndWacko[/QUOTE]

The geographic center of the contiguous (lower) 48 states is about four miles west of Lebanon, Kansas, at 98°35' West 39°50' North.

That would be 1287 miles from my house. Piece of cake. And I could use the same map as this year. Except I will only need half of it.LOL

I've heard a lot of good things about Branson MO. .... BTW, dose anyone know how much is left of the factory in St Louis and is it worth seeing ?  It would be fun to see the ol'girl's birth place.

Cool  it would be nice to have it here in oklahoma, we have the most miles of route 66 still remaining.  branson is good too, but a lot of traffic.  spring
would be a good time to have it here, but you really don't want it in the middle of july or august.  fall is good too.  lotsa places to go see the leaves turning.
