Spridget 2008 is at the Lake of the Ozarks. See another thread for details and advance info.

Who: You (of course!)
What: Spridget Golden Anniversary
When: June 26-29, 2008
Web Site: <www.Sprite-MidgetClub.org>
Where: Inn at Grand Glaize, Osage Beach, MO https://www.innatgrandglaize.com> We have the entire hotel as a "Spridget Golden Anniversary" headquarters! You can call now for your reservation with a room rate around $84. Tell them you are with the Spridget group.
From the sound of things the hotel will fill quickly. There are plenty of other hotels nearby but LotO is VERY popular in the summer so book your rooms ASAP! There will be a BE in the lobby!

Event schedule: TBD but will include in addition to a "Spridgets
List Gathering", a mass drive w/ police escort, Car Show & BBQ lunch in the beautiful Lake of the Ozarks State Park,
driving tours (Missouri Wineries - Ozarks - Branson - The best Spridget roads in the USA!), tech sessions,
funkhana, autocross, poker run, sight seeing, awards & prizes, drawings and door prizes.

For the "We tight crowd" -
How much: Pre-registration is projected to be around $75 before June
1, 2008, $90 thereafter. You will be able to pre-register shortly via the web site using PayPal. There will be a ton of goodies in your registration packet including all the official 50th memorabilia (shirts, plaques, key fobs, what have you). The awards banquet the evening of the 29th will be separate from the registration fee and is projected to run around $25.

What else?:
We hope to bring Daniel Stapleton (How to Power Tune Midget and Sprite for Road and Track) from England and we have invited Jay Leno. David Leib and Larry Daniels are putting together a special calendar. We hope to webcast parts of the event. Pictures of you and your car will
be available for those who wish.
 
Not a clue, will forward your idea.

That car must be one of ours, has rust in all the right places.
