Default [SoCal] Saturday January 21st -- SCC Audi's Pines to Palms Drive/Poker Run

<b>Event</b>: <a href="http://www.sccaudi.com/articles.asp?id=144">SCC Audi's Pines to Palm Drive/Poker Run</a> <i>(Banning-Idyllwild-Palm Springs)</i>
<b>Date</b>: Saturday, January 21
<b>Time</b>: 9:00AM
<b>Location</b>: Parking lot of the San Gorgonio Inn
<b>Address</b>: 150 East Ramsey, Banning, CA, 92220

<a href="http://sccaudi.com/Surveys/0501-PalmSpringsIdyllwild/PalmSpringsIdyllwild.html">Register for this event</a>

Come out and join us for our first drive of the year to Palm Springs -- Pines to Palms Drive/Poker Run, which will take us from the old San Gorgonio Inn in Banning, to the Las Casuelas Terraza Restaurant in the lively heart of downtown Palm Springs.

Hit the road as we head up-mountain, through the Black Mountain Scenic Area into the San Jacinto Wilderness, the old peak always in view, patches of snow on the sides of the road to an elevation of 6500 feet, the tremendous view obscured only by tall, majestic pines and the crinkling of your eyes as you smile with every turn. Enjoy the ride as we descend into mountain valleys, with long straights, tight twists and broad sweepers, all the while in awe of the vast high desert stretching out before you.

Fill your bellies at the Las Casuelas Terraza Restaurant, after the ride's done, and talk with your new friends before going on to enjoy a beautiful weekend in the center of Palm Springs.

Make it a quick drive or make it a much deserved weekend away with the family. Whatever you make it, make it to the drive! You won't regret it, and what better way to spend a sun-filled weekend than with family, friends, and the Audi.

And to add something new, we've added a new twist to our drive. This drive will also be an optional poker run for those would are feeling lucky and would like to play all. All attendees, whether driver or passenger, are invited to take part in the fun with a $10.00 buy-in. Over the course of the drive, cards will be dealt to all players, with a final card being given at the Las Casuelas Terazza Restaurant. The player who ultimately holds the winning hand takes home the cash pot. It could be you!

Since the drive is less than 2 weeks away, we encourage you to register as soon as possible. It's bound to be a good time, and the more people who register, the more fun it will be (and the bigger the cash pot will be too).

We're looking forward to seeing you there!! Once again, this event is open to all Audi owners. You need not be an ACNA member to participate. All that we ask is that you please <a href="http://sccaudi.com/Surveys/0501-PalmSpringsIdyllwild/PalmSpringsIdyllwild.html">RSVP</a>.

Check-in for the drive and registration for the poker run will take place in the parking lot before the drive. Keep in mind, our meeting spot is just a parking lot, not a restaraunt. If needed, there are gas stations, coffee houses, and convenient stores close by. We will depart for the drive promptly at 9:30AM, so be sure to plan ahead to make it on time!

Please visit our <a href="http://www.sccaudi.com/articles.asp?id=144">website</a> for more info and details including accomdations should you decide to spend the weekend at Palm Springs.

If you have any questions, you can also email us at SCCAudi@SCCAudi.com.

The San Gorgonio Inn is just off the 10 Freeway in Banning, CA. If coming from the west, you can take the Sunset / 8th street exit, turn left, and turn right onto Ramsey Street. The Inn will be on your right-hand side, just past the Banning Police Department.

If coming from the east, you can take the Hargrave St. exit, turning right, and taking the first left onto Ramsey. The Inn will be on your left after a few short blocks.
