Coolwater's 3rd Annual Cruise to SOWO

[eudorrra]

We will be hosting our 3rd cruise to Southern Worthersee this year.

In 2010, we led a small organized cruise with a handful of local enthusiasts that turned into a small adventure: Water and Wagens

Last year, the cruise grew even larger. We were joined by some new faces along with some old ones: Jetta Down

If history repeats itself, then this year will undoubtedly be another cruise to remember.

Here is the info:

When: Wednesday Night / Thursday Morning, May 17, 2012 @ 12:00am
Where: Applebee's Parking Lot. 640 Promenade Boulevard Bridgewater, NJ 08807

We ask that the cruise leaders meeting up with us along the way please coordinate with your local folks to get connected and make sure no one gets left behind!

A few things to remember:

Have a Full Tank!

We will be making a gas stop every ~200 miles. Have your cars topped off.

Bring Walkie-talkies with Extra Batteries.

Communication is awesome. C'mon, who doesn't like messing around with walkie-talkies anyway? . We'll be broadcasting on channel 8.

Snacks and Drinks.

Have some Redbull, coffee, soy milk, or whatever keeps you up with you before heading out. Don't drink too much or you will be bursting at the seams if you know what I mean.

No Racing!

We cannot stress this enough. Since there will be a good amount of cars on the road, the last thing anyone needs is an accident. Respect your fellow cruisemates.

This is a cruise designed to get together with old friends and make new ones. We hold camaraderie in high regard. We all stay together and more importantly, no one gets left behind.
