PowerTour 2020 start date

[cstmwgn]

I agree. If the current pattern holds it should be June 6th. History of recent years:

June 5, 2004
June 4, 2005
June 3, 2006
June 2, 2007
June 7, 2008
June 6, 2009
June 5, 2010
June 4, 2011
June 2, 2012
June 1, 2013
June 7, 2014
June 6, 2015
June 11, 2016
June 10, 2017
June 9, 2018
June 8, 2019

Or the pattern might indicate a shift to the 2nd Saturday starting in 2016.

Some of that might explain why the June 6th weekend reservations went $$ up so quickly. I haven’t booked anything yet, so I guess I’ll wait a little longer. I have to work until 2pm on the 5th anyway, which is the Last day of the school year, so a week later would make the traveling a little more relaxed.

I believe that is why they changed it. I use to have to pick my kid up at school on the last day (1/2 day) and head north directly from school.

I think we have reservations for both weekends but I'm not sure. Hopefully it will start in Norwalk since it's only 1.5 hours from the house.

Since I have to pick my vacation days NOW, I reached out to [email protected] - here is a screenshot of my exchange:


Doesn't really clarify either way, so it's less than helpful, but maybe someone could read into it and agree that June 5th is the date...

Very possible. I knew there was another theory based on the "patterns" but couldn't put my finger on it when I posted earlier.

Power Tour is listed as June 7th on the Summit Schedule

Interesting as Sunday should be the first day of driving. Room prices in the Norwalk area have skyrocketed and some seem to be blocked.

I’m on my phone so can’t look this up...do you have a link for this?

[Redline04]

Maybe HR is changing the start date to Sunday (first travel day Monday) and then ending on Saturday instead of Friday??
