This year we are back! After a tough year planning and hosting a successful POCI Convention, its back to our normal programming.

This years show dates are August 3 & 4 and will be at the same place - DuPage Expo Center in St Charles, IL

Its early to start giving out show information because show planning is still in the early stages, but check back here as we'll post cool new stuff for 2013 as soon as it comes in.

You guy's do know that this show is the same weekend as the Tri-Power Nat's in Norwalk,Ohio right ?

Old Blue 66 12-30-2012 12:03 PM

This questions comes up every year. Im glad to answer it.
 
Yes. It has been for the last two years. We have quite a few people who do both shows. It hasn't hurt attendance at either show.

Our attendance just keeps growing. The decision to do the show on that weekend is SOLELY based on the availability of the show grounds and we've talked with Kevin at Ames about this extensively. There isn't another place in northern IL that will hold The Indian Uprising with out being too cramped. You can ask anyone who attends that this facility is perfect for us.

For those who do both shows, that's one heck of a great weekend.

Hotel reservations
 
Info copied here from the club website. make reservations now as most hotels book up fast.

Our show host hotel, The Hilton Garden Inn of St. Charles, IL is located immediately East, and adjacent, to our outdoor show field. The indoor arena is positioned immediately West of our show field. Both show venues are in easy walking distance from the host hotel.

A special block of rooms has been set aside at a reduced rate of $99.00 per night for those attending our show. Advanced reservations are necessary and can be make by calling (630) 584-0700. It is suggested that you deal with local advance reservations, not off-site central reservations. Ask for "the Cruisin' Tigers Indian Uprising rate."

The three best show of the year are all on the same weekend. WTF??? Norwalk the Land O' Lakes Muscle Car Classic, and the Indian.
I say it every year but no one gets it thus were stuck enjoy one weekend compared to 2, or 3. Oh well, guess thats the way the ball bounces.
As Duane would say let it Rain :rain:

Brewster 04-17-2013 09:31 PM

Yeah, but Mad-Town to St Charles is only a two hour drive. You thinking what Im thinking. Tipp City My @ss this is major possibility on this run.
Lets talk people!

Old Blue 66 04-18-2013 08:50 AM

Please refer back to post 6.
 
Cant help it guys. There aren't that many weekends in the summer if you look at a calender. Some weekends are too close to holidays a couple of of other national Pontiac events, going back to school and rainy season (any time in June and in over 20 years this show has never suffered from a full rain out). Not to mention that the show grounds has limited availability and the only place in IL to hold us.

If we were a week before or after POCI, GTOAA or Norwalk, most people wouldn't use two weekends in a row to travel to a show even if we had more availability of dates in St Charles.

We just have a very short season. :(

Rainy season is in full swing!
