The Mid Atlantic Thunderbird Club (MATC) is planning a weekend away May 18-20 in the Roanoke VA area to celebrate both the anniversary of the formation of our club 50 years ago as well as Thunderbird Appreciation Day on May 19^th. On Sunday, May 19, we plan to caravan to nearby Smith Mountain Lake to have a lunch cruise on the Virginia Dare boat at 3pm. We would love to have any and all folks join our club members if you can make it. We would need to know in advance to guarantee room on the boat so please get the word out to your members soon if you are interested.

We plan to meet in the parking lot at our hotel in Roanoke, the Comfort Inn Civic Center, 815 Gainsboro Rd, Roanoke VA 24016 at 1:30. The ride out to the boat is about an hour. It is Virginia Dare Cruises and Marina at 3619 Airport Rd, Moneta, VA 24121. The cruise is at 3pm. The cruise is at 3pm. You will need to get tickets in advance at https://www.vadaresml.com/cruises.

Should be a nice weekend. Smith’s Mountain Lake is where parts of the movie “Dirty Dancing” was filmed. It’s a beautiful ride up to the lake. The boat ride on the lake is new to me. As you ride past route 460 give a wave to my Alma Mater, Virginia Tech. Wish I could join you guys but I’m still in ill health.

Sorry to learn of your continuing health issues, Gene.
