Funny enough my fiancé and I moved to Jacksonville a few months ago so sadly I cannot join everyone at Waterford for the meets It sucks because I really miss going out there and seeing everyone including you, Ray, Scott, John, Chris, etc.
The good news though is that once I graduate from grad school next year we are either moving back to Orlando or moving down south to be closer to the Lexus crew over there. Either way its a win/win situation
I still go back to Orlando to see the parents once a month....but this particular event I will make sure to be in attendance as well as any other events Orlando will have before this one

Vehicle Safety at this Event!!!
Many have expressed their concern for the safety of their cars while attending this event? Rest assured that I feel the same way when I travel out of town staying overnight as well. I myself will be staying overnight at the hotel and wouldn't put members in a situation where they wouldn't feel comfortable leaving their cars unattended overnight. The parking area of the hotel is gated with a security guard on duty overnight as well as a Valet attendant available 24 hrs a day. If it makes members that more comfortable and willing to book a room, I'll provide an officer overnight on the property or suit up myself?
The staff at the Crowne Plaza has assured me that our vehicles will be secure and safe, so come on down and rest assured that your car will be safe overnight.
