O.K. Friends and Corvette enthusiasts. We need a good time frame to set for the Gathering. Mid Summer?  Late Summer? OR, After school starts, after labor day? Let's get a Quick consensus, so we can put some air in the tires, change the oil, and get this trip on the map. Thanks in advance!

Don't know the area but would prefer August or September.  July is a bit too hot and busy for that long a drive.

Greetings!  We are unfamiliar with the Poconos, so we can’t add much to the convo. September is best for us. The A/C in our C3 needs as much cool weather boost as it can get, and Jul/Aug are busy for us.🤣

I have never been to the area so I have no idea of where to stay or what to see. But if the dates work, I will be there.

I would suggest a month when it is not too busy.

I like informal restaurants.

I like local history and museums.

Curvy back roads are always a plus.

Just don't pack 7 days of sightseeing into 3 days.

Dave

For activity suggestion, I’ll call out the AACA museum   https://www.aacamuseum.org/

From what I understand, it’s one of the top Automotive Museum in the country 

It’s in Hershey so a bit farther of a drive then typical (unless folks know of things along the way). If too far for the official gathering, I’ll plan to hit it on the way in or heading home (assuming dates work for us)

I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

We, like Dave like cruising the back roads. That was the reason for the Poconos. Any time is good, as long as it doesn't interfere with registered events.

The wife and I love the area.   Some places to visit that are fairly easy walks are Grey Towers, Kittatinny Mountain, Dingmans Falls, and Buttermilk falls.   Bushkill falls are little more strenuous but not terrible.  I recently found photos of a road just north of there called Hawks Nest.  I'd love to take the Vette for a cruise up there.
