MAARC MILLE MIGLIA
25th Anniversary Drive
October 8 - 12, 2008
In celebration of the MAARC's 25th year, the club will be having it's own Mid-Atlantic Mille Miglia Drive. This will be a five day event ending on Columbus Day weekend that will take participating members one lap around the entire Mid-Atlantic territory, from the Piedmont to the Blue Ridge mountains to the Atlantic coast and everything in between. Starting and ending in Roanoke Rapids, NC, members may choose to participate in all just one to all five days. The exact route is still being finalized, but the event schedule is as follows:
Wednesday, October 8th: Roaonoke Rapids, NC to Radford, VA (near Roanoke VA)
Thursday, October 9th: Radford, VA to Asheville, NC
Friday, October 10th: Asheville, NC to Aiken, SC
Saturday, October 11th: Aiken, SC to Myrtle Beach, SC
Sunday, October 12th: Myrtle Beach, SC to Roanoke Rapids, NC
Starting point will be the Jameson Inn hotel in Roanoke Rapids on 8 October. Roanoke Rapids was selected as the start/finish point as it is nearly equi-distant from Raleigh-Durham and Hampton Roads (our two major branch locations). For those who wish to arrive the night before, Jameson Inn has a group rate booked for the 7th. For those who do not want to stay the extra night, you can either arrive early on the 8th in Roanoke Rapids or meet the group at a scheduled rendezvous point in South Hill, VA. Also Jameson Inn is booked for the 12th for those who wish to stay over for a post-drive celebration party.
Group hotel rates have been arranged for all start/stop points along the route. Please note that in order to get the listed group rate, you must reserve your room no later than 30 days prior to arrival. Please note that due to the laid-back nature of the club
YOU MUST MAKE YOUR OWN ROOM RESERVATIONS. If you prefer different accommodations than the ones listed, or cannot meet the 30 day deadline, feel free to make your own arrangements.
