Corvairs of New Mexico is pleased to invite you, the entire Corvair community , to the
 
2012 Albuquerque International Hot Air Balloon Fiesta !
October 5-6 & 7th, 2012
 
If you've never attended the famous Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta , now in it's 41st year, here is a great opportunity to not only do so, but do so with us, Corvairs of New Mexico.
Make your plans to join us for this premier event.
It is not too soon to book your hotel** and RV park reservation as this is a very well attended event .
We are advertising this event  early in the year because accomodations really do fill up fast .
 You are on your own for this part ,but once you arrive , we will do all we can to make your visit one to remember.
Bring you & yours, your Corvair and your camera for this amazing event !
**(When searching hotel options ,you should choose an accomodation close to the Balloon Fiesta . So for example, if you were to choose hotels.com , you are given a balloon fiesta fairgrounds option and that will put you close to all the action)
or go to: www.balloonfiesta.com
for hotel/event info.
We are hoping to register at least 5 + Corvair Guests/Families" before making final plans for our  agenda.
Remember  that if you decide to join us , our event is 2-3 days but the Fiesta runs for the entire week and we recommend that you take advantage of all there is to see and do .

THE DETAILS

CNM (Corvairs of New Mexico) will be participating in the opening ceremonies , Sunday, October 7th , displaying our Corvairs in the annual car show at the Balloon Fiesta fairgrounds.

This is an early morning event and one in which we cue up with other car  clubs before entering the fairgrounds. This will also get you in for free. Show your Corvair while enjoying this wonderful, colorful event.

We are asking those who will be attending to join us on Friday , October 5th for a "Meet and Greet" , briefing and directions to our staging area  for Sunday morning.

 We will begin our Corvair Caravan Tour Saturday morning October 6th. Our route and various points of interest including Santa Fe, will be announced at a later date.

That evening following our return to Albuquerque, CNM and our guests will convene for dinner TBA.  We also are considering an all Corvair show on the following day, Sunday October 7th following the Fiesta car car in a different location.

This event actually runs from October 6-14th. You may choose to continue your stay and take in the activities during the following week. Here is the link to the official schedule of events at the balloon fiesta.
