The LOC will be hosting the Spring 2025 meet in the Watkins Glen, NY area. The “Hotel Laurel at Seneca”, overlooks Seneca Lake (the largest Finger lake in New York). June is a popular destination in the “Finger Lakes” area and a very busy month at the Raceway. Each hotel room enjoys a panoramic view of the lake from your own private balcony. This year’s meet will be a non judged one and we are looking forward to meeting with our good friends from the Lincoln Zephyr Club.
Trailer parking is available on the hotel grounds.
