Fri-Mon 2-5	CFCA ANNUAL TRIP TO THE KEYS. Join CFCA for a fun weekend in Key West, Florida! No car show, just fun in the sun in the Keys. Discounted hotel arrangements, sunset cruise, and of course, the Duval Crawl. CFCA will depart from the Cracker Barrel on OBT (just south of 417) at 7:00am sharp on Friday, Nov 2nd. Arrive earlier (they open at 6:00am) if you want breakfast. We'll have a group lunch at the M.E.A.T. Eatery & Tap Room in Islamorada enroute to Key West. We should arrive at our hotel in Key West mid afternoon. Make your hotel reservations at Sheraton Suites Key West by calling Shannon Lutz, Key West Group Coordinator, at 305-292-4345 and reference the CENTRAL FLORIDA CORVETTE ASSOCIATION to get our group rate. $245 for a King room may sound high but this is high season in Key West and our rates have actually gone DOWN from last year and they still aren't charging us the $35 + tax resort fee. Recommend you get your hotel reservations by October 1st otherwise they cannot guarantee you our discounted rate. Our wonderful shuttle driver, Mr. Ed, will be waiting for us! On FRIDAY night we'll do something different by enjoying a Sunset Happy Hour from the deck of the retired Coast Guard ship, the USCGC INGHAM, docked on the Truman Annex Waterfront in Old Town Key West. This glorious old ship is a floating museum and makes for a fascinating visit. It's only $5 per person to board with no crowds to fight like on Mallory Square and they'll have a bar set up and deck chairs for us to enjoy, too. No reservations required. They know we're coming! :) Our Wind & Wine Sunset Sail Cruise will be on SATURDAY night (Nov 3rd) and you must be at the pier by 5:00 pm or risk being left behind. To book this cruise call Danger Charters at 305-304-7999 and tell them you are with the PATTI HUTCHINSON group (not CFCA) to get our special discounted price of $94.99pp which includes tax and gratuity and some really nice wine and cheese pairings during the cruise. You must secure your reservations NLT October 10th. After that, we'll have to return any unused reservations. The sunset cruise is a highlight of the trip so don't miss it! We'll have a group dinner at a casual place along the water on Saturday night after the cruise. NEW! For you adventurous types (that's all of you, right?) we've also arranged for a "Tiki Hut" cruise on SATURDAY afternoon before our Wind & Wine sunset cruise. This should be loads of fun, featuring cute little 6-passenger boats built like tiki hut bars that will take us on a 2-hour sightseeing trip out to Sunset Key and back again. Water, ice, and sodas are provided but bring your own beer, liquor, and/or snacks if desired. There are NO restrooms on board so do your "business" before you board or else you'll be doing it overboard. The tikis depart from The Mellow Ventures dock at 1605 N Roosevelt Blvd, Key West, FL 33040. Our discounted rate is $150.55 for two people. We've reserved several tiki boats for our group but you must call to confirm your reservations with a credit card by calling Crusin' Tikis at 833-845-4759 NLT October 10th. After that, we'll have to return any unused reservations. You are on your own for the return trip to Orlando. Some folks depart for home on Sunday, others spend a few more days in paradise. Either way you are sure to have a blast in the Keys with your CFCA buddies! Click here for Patti's Key West Trip Memo or CFCA Caravan Info. Questions? Contact the CFCA Chairperson, Patti Hutchinson, 407-256-1335.
