    This coming Saturday is a lot of things, including St. Patrick's Day and the day of the Sebring 12 Hours.

    But it is also the third Saturday and normally the day for the monthly Giovanni's gathering.

    However, the previously posted schedule (http://ferrarichat.com/forum/showthread.php?t=134539) shows it being the following Saturday, the 24th. Does anyone know any more about this?

    (If it is on the 24th, I might go to Alabama this Saturday for a free lunch....)

    I guess since we're on Daylight Savings Time now we should go back to a 4 PM start.

    Looking at the original post from 1-10-07, it gives the Mar 24 start at 3PM. April 21 at 3PM.

    I am really confused...when is it? I was wondering when it was going to be also, but I didn't really know where to find it.

    :D Glad it's next weekend. I'll be heading to Savannah for Saturday and I would hate to miss the show.

    Mick, with Daylight Savings Time now in force, the 3 PM start seems a bit unnecessary. I, for one, do not plan on arriving before 4.....

    Here's a flyer to hang up or whatever you want to do with it. Note that I stuck to 4 PM for the start; with sunset now at 7:50 PM, and a predicted high on Saturday of close to 80, why rush things? Of course, you can still show up at 3 if you so choose. (If anyone does, please see if you can find the cones and mark off our area.)

    I've been reading about the Giovanni's shows for a long time and finally made it today. Enjoyed getting to see some great cars on a beautiful day. I'll definitely start coming regularly.
