Its that time of year once again. Time to have another picnic :beer: . This will be our 4th annual SSM picnic. The picnic will be on Sunday Feb 18th at Markham Park ( Same as last year ) from 11:00 - ????? Whenever the sun goes down. It falls on President's Day Weekend So I am sure that most people will have off the following day to relax before going back to work.
The address to the park is 16001 West State Road 84
Sunrise, FL 33326. There is a $1 fee per person to get in to the park.
We will have the usual Burgers, Dogs, Chips, and Soda. If anyone would like to bring a dish to the picnic please feel free to do so, Just let me know So that I can keep track of who is bringing what and so we dont have too much of one thing. For the drinkers out there Its Bring Your Own Beer. Ill have several coolers there to keep all the beers and sodas cold. We also will be having another raffel at the picnic. If there are any vendors out there that would like to donate anything to the raffel just shoot me a PM.
Being that the weather down here is so unpredictable, Im am going to look in to renting a large tent or two so we could have shelter from rain or sun.
I will be going to the Park early that morning with my grill to set up. Im hoping that I can get the same spot as usual so we can accomodate all the cars and get a few good pics of all the cars, Just no tree climbing this year.
I know its kinda early but I wanted to give people some time to be able to make plans in advance and not last minute. So who is going. Last year we had 38 Marauders there. Lets beat that this year and have between 40 - 45 Marauders if not more. I know that we are a large group and Im sure we can have that type of showing at the picnic.
If you plan on attending post here with how many will be coming with you so I can make sure that we have enough food for everyone. If anyone would like to help donate to the picnic just look for me once your there...
I hope to see all of you there so we can have another great picnic with all of our friends from near and far. :party: :party: :sing: :welcome:

As always Rob you will have my help on this. We can bring my grill also like last year so we have at least 2 Grill's. I have some folding tables and some folding chairs I can bring also. Being I now have the Pick up truck now it will make things a little easier.

Now that looks nice!
One question, why is the god head facing to the right when he usually faces to the left?

I cannot say for sure if I'll be there or not. I have a lot of business travel in February and at this point, I'm not sure which days I'll be gone. I'll try to have a better idea sometime next month.
If I'm here, I'll be there.

The God I used was easier to cut from a detail standpoint. The ones on the center caps and seatbacks is a different design. I liked this one better. It is pointing to the right because umm... the uh... I was... Hey look over there!!!!

Count me in for 2 adults, 1 child and 1 Joshua.
As it gets closer, we will plan the west coast convoy across the alley together. Nothing like seeing 10 to 20 MM's in formation :)

Just want to bump the thread in case anyone missed it.
I didn't miss the thread, I'm just a slacker! I'll be there with the MM. I'll possibly bring the "tanker" also, but I doubt it. Just one for right now!
Looking forward to it,

Perhaps maybe the Greater Tampa Bay crew could meet at Bradenton exit or somewhere near where the Bridge connects to 75 to convoy down to meet the group at last years gathering place just below Ft. Myers for the Blast over the Alley??? Sounds like fun. Heh??? :D Dennis

Ya' know, that might be cool! Which one's ya bringin'? Maybe a two-blue cruise?
A dozen MM's on the Alley is an awesome sight. I couldn't believe people were blowing by us. And listen to Tom, I can tell you first hand - don't be the one in front of Dennis. The auto-dimming mirror doesn't work in the daytime!!!
Happy New Year,

It looks like Silver2004Marauder & John Nero should have a Trunk Thump runoff.
I cannot say for sure if I'll be there or not. I have a lot of business travel in February and at this point, I'm not sure which days I'll be gone. I'll try to have a better idea sometime next month.

We understand, but the Rick-mobile needs to be there.

I'll also try to put together some prints to donate to the cause. I will try to get pix of other colors than Black but for that I would need MM.net members to send me some Hi quality Pix.
Oh yeah, and this year I'll try to make them of a size that fits into a MM.

What do you mean "sitting on the fence"? You better be there - I will be helping with your Trilogy install at CarFixer's this weekend. You gotta open that hood and show the goods at the picnic.

I don't think my "kit #152" has been shipped yet?....
Probably won't make it here by the weekend. But lets keep our
fingers crossed!
Come-on Al. Get yourself down to the picnic. You'll have a great time! Your beautiful car needs to be seen by the masses!
Hope to see you there,
