2009 Fiero Westfest - Santa Cruz Mountains - "Big Trees" - July 17-18-19

Hey Fiero Fans,

Ready for windy scenic roads with beautiful redwood trees? Fiero Westfest 2009 is going to be in the Santa Cruz Mountains amid great big tall trees and located at the Brookdale Inn and Spa.

The Friday night reception, car show and banquet will all be held at the Brookdale Inn & Spa. No need to change locations for any of our venues this year.
Our banquet will be served in the Brookroom dining room with the river running though it and our awards ceremony in the connected Log Cabin room. Our car show will be in the parking lot under the big redwood trees!

Brookdale Inn and Spa

The Brookdale Inn & Spa is located on Hwy 9 between Saratoga and Santa Cruz, at a convenient distance from the Silicon Valley, San Francisco and Santa Cruz.
Set amongst towering redwoods the world famous Brookdale Lodge is uniquely rustic and built around a beautiful dining room with a natural brook running though it.
Judge J.H. Logan at the site of the Grover lumber mill built the original lodge in 1890. In the early 1920's, Dr. F.K. Camp built the beautiful dining room with the natural brook running through it. A feature in Ripley's Believe It or Not served to make the Brookdale Lodge world famous. Throughout the years, the Brookdale Lodge has hosted a number of notable guests: movie stars, music celebrities and a U.S. President.

Brookdale Lodge serves the needs of its guests with hotel and cottage accommodations, an indoor heated swimming pool, cocktail lounge, and dance floor. On Friday and Saturday night they are providing live entertainment for our listening and dancing enjoyments.
Two on-site restaurants provide their guests with a selection of dining experiences.
The Brookdale Cafe is open seven days a week for breakfast and lunch.

I know we are going to pretty much stay on the site (because it's a ShowNShine) but I hope at some
point we all take a drive together to Alice's in Woodside to show off our Fiero "train".

Oh, and the room rate is excellent!

Although it might be tough to tell from the pictures, because the place is being renovated and is mostly closed, it's a really nice place. It's really beautiful and rustic.
