Upstate NY DVC

[DVC-LEROY]

JudithM - you're right - Utica is Exit 31 - we always use 32 because it's more convenient to where we are.

while out and about, if you are in the rochester area, look for a black malibu with two oval stickers (one on each side) next to the rear plate.

The one on the left is my DVC oval and the right one is my VWL oval sticker.

I am on I-90 from exit 46 to 45 sometime between 6:30 and 7:30am and from exit 45 to 46 sometime between 5:15(if I am lucky) and 7:00pm Mon - Fri

As a former upstate NYer (Amsterdam) and current NJer, who travels the Thruway back home (Exit 27) I will draw the unofficial upstate / downstate line at Kingston, since that is where the traffic noticeably changes. Wish I could spend more time up in the Adirondacks, near Wells and Speculator where we spent many summers. It really is a beautiful area, that I appreciate so much more when I'm stuck in New Jersey heat and traffic. Don't miss the snow however.

I've really enjoyed this thread! I'll look for your bumper stickers next time I'm traveling I-890.

OK everyone, when are we going to get together? I've never attended a meet before but would be willing to help someone organize one.

 

[Diana Lyn]

I'm with you. I'd love to get together but I've never planned a meet!

Where in Saratoga County are you? I'm in Glenville.

I live in Wilton, just 5 minutes from Saratoga.

why don't we start a new thread to see who would be interested in an upstate meeting? It has less of a chance of being missed, and we could get better response rate.

I would make the drive from Rochester (if it fits in my time, what little I have) to Syracuse, or Albany areas, actually most of the state would work for me. I drove 5hrs to Harrisburg for a DIS/DVC/Pin meet.

I will keep an eye out for the new thread!

OK friends, the new thread is there. I went crazy and took the initiative, but I have no clue what planning a meet entails. I'm gonna need your help on this one!

Diana,

I can get you in touch with the person from these boards who helped organize the Harrisburg meet I went to. Let me know in a PM here.

She did a GREAT job, so I am sure she can give some good tips.

Diane just sent you a PM. Maybe we can get something together since there are so many of us.

Seeing that so many people are from the Saratoga area, everyone will be right at home in the DVC location at the Marketplace. It is going to be leveled and a brand new complex with a "SAratoga Springs" theme is the considered concept for the sight. I do not think there will be racing in August however!

The meet sounds like a great idea. Are they usually overnighters?
How long?

 

[DVC-Don]

Thank goodness. As a local, I avoid Saratoga Springs as much as I can during the race season.

Another Upstate NYer here. Like Jasmine I live near Binghamton, NY. A NY meet sounds like fun.

As a former upstate New Yorker I'd like to say hi! I was born and raised in Ithaca. Then lived in Binghamton for awhile. I can count on 1 hand how many times I went to "the City".
