Southeast Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi & Alabama
Hello everyone,
I'm Dorothy Crocker; I'll be leading the Caravan from SE Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and
Alabama! This will be the 4th caravan that I've participated in; it will be the 3rd that I've
led to Bowling Green. I'm hoping that we'll have a fun and exciting time!
As the saying goes, "All Roads Lead to Bowling Green!" Especially for September 3rd
5th, 2009, as that is the 15th Anniversary of the Grand Opening of OUR Corvette Museum!
We'll be leaving from Beaumont, Texas on Tuesday, September 1st traveling along Interstate 10
East making stops to pick up people and maybe have a little fun, at Baton Rouge we'll change over
to Interstate 12 East until we reach Interstate 59 North outside of Pearl, Mississippi. From there
we'll stop for the night in Hattiesburg Mississippi, where Ryan Chevrolet will host a cookout for
us at the Microtel which is giving the caravan a discounted rate. The Microtel is located at
Interstate 59 and Hardy St/Highway 98 West. The Microtel also has security and there are also 2
restaurants adjacent to the hotel, the Olive Garden and Logans Steakhouse. We are still trying to
work on some other activities along the way here. After our overnight we'll continue along
Interstate 59 North to Birmingham, Alabama, where the Hummer/Cadillac dealership will host
possibly lunch for us. Then we'll take Interstate 65 North all the way into Bowling Green,
Kentucky!
It will take a lot of planning and work to pull this off. If you would like to help, please
feel free to contact me. I would love to have activities all along our route. I need help
contacting local corvette clubs, the dealerships, etc., along the way. You can reach me at my
email address dorothy@dorothycrocker.com.
I hope to be hearing from a lot of you planning on caravanning with us in 2009!
Respectfully,
Dorothy Crocker
Gulf Coast Captain
