Sixth annual British V8 informal Fall Gathering in Townsend, TN.
Just to make sure we're all on the same page: the meet will be the first FULL weekend in October, which will be Thursday, Oct 6 through Sunday, Oct 9. Rooms are blocked out for that weekend. Mention British V8 to get the reduced rate.
For those who are not familiar with this meet, it is an INFORMAL gathering of hot-rodded British sports car enthusiasts, with no plans, no schedule, no registration, no fees, just a bunch of good ole boys (and girls) hanging out, having a good time. Come on down and join us. We'll be at the Tally Ho inn, about two miles from the Smoky Mountains. Call 865-448-2465 for reservations. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 02/25/2024 10:02AM by MGBV8. |

Re: Sixth annual British V8 informal fall meet, Townsend, TN.
Should we get bored, there are two (2) Craft Beer Tap rooms nearby. One is Bluetick Brewery in Maryville, and Smokey Mountain Brewery & Brew Pub in Maryville, Another is located in Walland, but has no tasting Room (UGH). Knoxville has several; plus they are w/i 30 miles of Townsend. These are optional things to consider plus Townsend now has a Winery as you enter from Maryville on the right . See you all in the Fall. Probably see you in May for the Annual Meet. (Formal if you know what we mean :-).
