This special rate only applies to 100 rooms at the Holiday Inn Express in Shawnee Mission, KS. The Courtyard by Marriott serves as the overflow hotel. It is next door and offers rooms at a higher, but still reasonable rate.

The 46th annual Texas Packard Meet will again be held in historic Salado in the heart of the Texas Hill Country. This is the oldest and possibly the largest regional Packard meet in the country and it is sponsored by the four Texas regions of The Packard Club. It features a welcoming party, an early bird tour, a parade to the public display on the banks of Salado Creek by the Barrow Brewery and entertainment center, a show and swap meet, people's choice competition, seminars, and an awards banquet. The banquet is held at the Mill Creek Golf Club with a scenic view of the creek. (last year we watched numerous deer getting water from the creek while we ate) The Holiday Inn Express is the host hotel. You must call directly at 254-947-4004 to get the special room rate. Just ask for a room in the Texas Packard Meet block. You must make your reservations before March 13, 2025, or the rates will be higher and maybe not even available. The hotel has a 72-hour cancellation without penalty policy so no need to put off calling. Details and forms can be found on the website.
