The New England Saab Owners Gathering in Sturbridge, Massachusetts The SOG is
fast approaching - the weekend of June 27-29 is just around the corner. By
now, everyone on our mailing list should have received a registration
brochure with all the info regarding this growing annual event. This year's
event is in Sturbridge, Massachusetts, and it's likely that attendance will
far exceed the two previous SOGs given the central location and proximity to
Boston. Also, it's not certain that the Sturbridge Host Hotel - our center of
operations so to speak - will have rooms available for much longer. If you're
planning on staying at the Hotel and haven't yet reserved a room - CALL NOW!!
Take a look at www.sturbridgehosthotel.com - or simply call them at
1-508-347-7393. (I took the liberty of asking rates for rooms for that
weekend as if I were not with NESA, and they were alarmingly higher - and
that was without any meals or the support staff that the Hotel provides us.
So - even if the rates seem steep, we're getting a heck of a deal here.)

The format will generally follow the first two SOGs, with attendees arriving
Friday, a Concours Saturday morning, a driving tour that afternoon, and a
banquet and presentation that evening.

Sturbridge has a wealth of area attractions for anyone who might not be
living and breathing Saabs this weekend. It's great for families as well
since Old Sturbridge Village is right around the corner. There's plenty of
room for a multitude of Saabs and owners - old and new. And while the theme
of the event will be recognizing turbo-charged Saabs, we're hoping to have an
impressive vintage turn-out as well.

To learn more about Old Sturbridge Village, try www.osv.org. We also have 10
adult admission passes to Old Sturbridge Village - good for 2 days - for $15
($5 off regular price). If interested, please email Chris at
secretaryno39sdcx6spamx782nesaab.org. This is a wonderful way that family members can enjoy
the day while the rest of us enjoy the cars.

Saturday's Concours will be at Old Sturbridge Village, just west of 'the
Tavern'. Registered cars should ARRIVE BY 8:30am. Judging will be by popular
vote, and will take place from 9-11am. Lunch will arrive around 11:30 (box
lunches will only be available to hotel guests or registered attendees who
paid in advance - there are plenty of options nearby, but there won't be
extra box lunches on site)

Directions: Sturbridge, Massachusetts, is located near the intersection of
Interstate 84 and the Massachusetts Turnpike (Interstate 90). The Sturbridge
Host Hotel is located on Route 20 West. From the North East & West, take the
Massachusetts Turnpike (Interstate 90) to Exit 9, then first right after
tolls onto Route 20 west. From the South, take either Interstate 84(Exit 3B)
or Route 131 to Route 20 West. The hotel driveway is located on the right,
less than one-quarter mile from the first set of traffic lights.

To get to Old Sturbridge Village for the Concours Saturday morning, stay on
Route 20 west past the Hotel, staying in the right-hand lane, and turn right
into the entrance for OSV. Follow the signs to the Tavern, and as you pull
into the parking area, you should see us set up over on the far right in the
large open space.

Using the saabnet.com Bulletin Board
NESA members have a way of communicating and keeping up to date instantly
through the NESA Bulletin Board on The Saab Network (www.saabnet.com). For
example, if someone wanted to cut the cost of his or her hotel reservation by
finding a roommate, the Bulletin Board is the way to go. Want to start a
caravan from Boston to Sturbridge Friday afternoon? Need some advice on local
service stations? Need someone to check out a car for you, or help out
wrenching on a weekend? Try the BB. Check it out - you might be surprised by
all the topics. We hope this will continue to be a convenient forum for New
England Saabers to share information and social events.

Hope to see you in Sturbridge!!
