------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When?
Thursday June 3rd - Sunday June 6th 2010
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Where?
Look Rock Campground - Tallassee, TN off Foothills Parkway
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Who?
Anyone who owns and/or appreciates BMWs.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Because the Smoky Mountains are home to..

- The Great Smoky Mountain National Park
- The Cherohala Skyway
- Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge
- Bananas, Black Bears, and Brokeback Mountain Cliche's
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Itinerary
Thurs. June 3rd
* 12PM-6PM - Meet & Greet / Setup Camp / Check-In
* 6PM-10PM - Dinner / Campfire Super Funtime
* 10PM-8AM - Campground Quiet Time (Campground Rules)
Friday June 4th - Sunday June 6th
- 8AM-6pm - Drive Where ever the group wants to go. We can usually count on driving the 120-Cherohala Loop atleast once. (Tail of the Dragon, Gatlinburg, Cherokee, Fontana Damn, etc..) Maybe this year it wouldn't hurt to take a hiking trail somewhere nice and burn off all the beer we drink.
** Seems we always try to plan an itinerary but it always pans out best when the group decides on the fly.
