FJR1300 Eastern Owners Meet - EOM - 2024 - Update

[extrememarine]

EOM 2024.

I wanted to share where I am with getting things sorted out for EOM this year. Venue hunting continues to be a challenge for this event; and the facility and staff at Flatwoods have set a bar that will be difficult for any other venue to come close to - the behind the scenes aspect has not been easier anywhere else than with the team at Flatwoods.

I have a room block and rates confirmed with the Clarion Inn (formerly known as The Maggie Valley Inn) in Maggie Valley, NC - they will have the room block set up for reservations in the next few days.

EOM Event Dates: Thursday, September 19th through Sunday, September 22nd, 2024.

I do plan on have event shirts and FJRiders.com shirts / hats. And, if I can bribe Festus into it, we may do a run of RITC tumblers as well.

The on site restuarant is Catrina's Cantina (Link)

I'm going to work on finalizing catering this week so I can get a formal announcement post created and shared across the forum(s) and FB groups. We will likely end up with a "tailgate" style social event Saturday evening with catering from Butts on the Creek, door prizes, 50/50 raffle,etc at the Tiki Bar behind the hotel.

I will refresh routes to post as well.

Thank you for your patience...

Awesome Wayne! Need to get my butt back in the Saddle and will add EOM to my wish list for this year.

I would strongly like to attend. I’ve never done a meetup of any sort; generally a solo rider.

Go! It's a great location, even better people. I was hoping to make it from the left coast this year but my son is getting married and they won't change the dates for me

The solution here is simple. Disown your son. You're welcome

The wife would divorce me and take all my $$.
I'd have to move in with you but at least once there I would have my choice of which FJR to ride each day.
