MAKE YOUR PLANS NOW FOR NORFOLK ANNUAL CONVENTION IN JULY!

MAKE YOUR PLANS NOW FOR NORFOLK IN JULY!



Bob Carter RM-6620  Convention Co-Manager

If you have a camera and want to take some memorable shots, then be sure to attend the 42nd annual LCCA convention in Norfolk, July 23 – 28, 2012. The Marriott Waterside is offering rooms at the unheard of rate of $115/night for singles thru quad so make your reservations early. Norfolk in July will be picturesque and the tours will be visually spectacular. I, for one, am looking forward to the Norfolk Southern train ride on Monday July 23rd aboard the NS vintage livery. Then what better way to top off the day than to take a harbor dinner cruise aboard the Spirit of Norfolk and see the world’s largest naval installation water side? And if that’s not enough, what about the history and color of Williamsburg, Jamestown and Yorktown? I just wish I had this opportunity about 60 years earlier when I was reading about it in school…the plantations, aquarium, Army transportation museum, military aviation museum and of course ice cream in a fresh waffle cone from the inventor of the waffle cone, Doumar’s. All of this is waiting for you in Norfolk this July 23-28. See the February issue of TLR for the details and registration information. I’ll be looking for you in Norfolk and have a safe trip.
