It’s nearly the time of year to think about getting our Fieros ready to enjoy on the road again! What better way to shake off the cobwebs than a nice countryside drive and lunch with other Fiero enthusiasts?On Saturday, May 4, 2024, we will travel west from Pottawatomie Park at 8 North Ave, St. Charles, IL 60174 (the Fierorama location) to White Pines Forest State Park in Mt. Morris, IL. White Pines Forest State Park is in the heart of the Rock River Valley and is the southern boundary of the historic Chicago-Iowa Trail. The park is perfect for family getaways to enjoy hiking, fishing, camping, and picnicking. With serene, picturesque beauty and modern lodge facilities amidst a beautiful forest and open space, it's a destination worth seeing.
If you are worried about this being the first drive of the year and mechanical issues arising, there is no better place to be than surrounded by others who work on and enjoy Fieros; we are there to troubleshoot and help you out! Some participants even carry basic tools in their vehicles and are willing to assist with any issues that occur. This is what being part of the Fiero family is all about!
We ask that everyone begin meeting at Pottawatomie Park at 9:00am for a 9:30am departure. It’s about a two-hour drive to White Pines, which will include a drive along the scenic banks of the Rock River. We will then enjoy a nice lunch at the White Pines Lodge. After lunch, we will head a little farther south along the Rock River, then turn east to head back to Pottawatomie Park, where we will conclude our day around 4:00pm.
Typically, we have 10-15 vehicles on this type of cruise with about 20-30 people attending and would love to see those numbers increase. If you cannot make the whole day event, you are welcome to meet us at the White Pines Lodge and Restaurant for lunch to enjoy the second half of the day, or enjoy the event with us for as long as you are able and break off from the group when needed.
