5th Annual Shreveport Cruise - August 22-23, 2015
Dates: Saturday, August 22nd through Sunday, August 23rd
Meeting Time: 7:00AM
Meeting Location: Einstein Bagels - Dallas, TX
Destination: Boomtown Casino Hotel - Bossier City, LA
Total Distance: ~600 miles roundtrip
Event page & registration (Facebook): 2015 5th Annual Shreveport Cruise
Boomtown will be the official hotel. Room prices start at $169/night on Expedia. We'll have tons of fun as a group Saturday night; dinner, drinking, gambling, etc. in the casinos and other local establishments within walking distance, and finally meet back up Sunday morning for a brunch buffet (optional of course) before heading home.
The exact route is going to remain private to prevent law enforcement from staking it out (yes, it's happened), but will be similar to the previous years' routes that everyone has loved! Maps of the exact route will be provided to all drivers the morning of the cruise; this will ensure everyone knows exactly where we're going just in case the group happens to get separated. We will make regrouping stops as required to keep everyone together though and we have a lunch spot about halfway through. It should be a very fun and scenic route taking us through three national forests! Sunday morning will be an easy < 3 hour drive home on Hwy 20.
Unfortunately E85 stations will not be available outside DFW until Bossier City, LA so please make alternate arrangements whether it be carrying spare jugs in your trunk or switching over to a pump gas tune when needed. If you're tuned on E85 please make sure to have the appropriate tune or OTS map loaded into your handheld or laptop so you can switch over quickly at a gas station.
Everyone is welcome to join so please feel free to bring your spouse, significant other, friends, etc. I hope to see all the regulars plus some new faces!

There is a large parking lot on the backside of Einstein that we'll meet at instead of the actual small Einstein lot due to our growing car count (currently at 14). It is closer to the Shell station anyway so it should work out just fine.
