Okay folks, time to start gauging interest in a meet again. We had a great turnout the last 2 years, so lets make it just as big or BIGGER than year's past!

I'm going to suggest Sunday, November 1st again for the proposed meet.

Like last year, instead of eating at Woodys and getting your vehicles dirty, we will rent the pavillion at the park.

This is a Picnic lunch folks! As always, everyone is welcome, and all cars are welcome!

If you don't want to go to the trouble of packing a lunch, feel free to stop at Woody's and pick up stuff to go etc.

Woody's Smokehouse took great care of us last year but I think a lot of us didn't like getting our babies Dusty.

If you have FMRS/GMRS Radios, thats very helpful in communicating in a convoy as well!

Details:

WHERE: Fort Boggy State Park , Centerville, TX (map to come) http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/spdest/f...ks/fort_boggy/ (http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/spdest/findadest/parks/fort_boggy/)
When: 1st November 2009, 11 AM to ???
What to bring: You and your crew....Your Panther, A picnic lunch, Paper towels, Drinks, Folding chairs, camera, sunscreen, etc.

PLEASE NOTE: FORT BOGGY IS A STATE PARK, we must abide by all the rules, no hot rodding, burnouts, speeding etc. You will be ticketed and asked to leave.

When entering the park, pull in PAST the stop sign, park your car and check in at the booth. DO NOT enter the park without checking in and getting a pass to place on your windshield.

The park entry is now FREE, however, they still ask you to check in.

The Park Ranger at Fort Boggy is very nice and have accommodated us last year very nicely. Alcohol and Glass containers are also prohibited inside the park.

Feel free to bring a cooler with cold drinks, folding chairs, sunglasses, sunscreen, baseball caps etc. Yup, November but it was warm last year!

My MM should be fixed by then. If you have specific suggestions for a decal let me know by early October so I can get the graphnic artist commissioned. Otherwise I'll do something like the previous two. See NTM photo section.

Regards,

Pat

Thanks Pat! I'm also working on some T-shirts.

Wes,

If you want we can coordinate so the T's and the decal are either the same or compatible. Give me an idea of what the T's will look like when you can, and I'll do the same.

1st thoughts = Background Mission Conception with it's huge twin bell towers, and James79stang black Marauder (side view in foreground). Usual script and NTM logo somewhere.

Count me in for sure. I have truly enjoyed the last 2 years and look forward to seeing all of my fellow Marauder friends once again. Just hope the weather is as good as last year. Let's make the 3rd year the biggest to date. Everyone bring a friend or a new driver to the park.

Can't make it. Unfortunately, my career is calling again and I will have to return to Tennessee in September.

Mike, Abraham, and Wes, sorry I've been so far out of the loop this go around, but this class and the subsequent hours are killing me. Hopefully, we can get at least one more dinner/G2G in before I leave.

I was in H-Town last Saturday and saw a silver Marauder at a Casino around 2145. Couldn't stop. We were late to see the fight at a buddies house + we didn't want to be seen in our rental Hyundai.

There are three threads concerning the Centerville GTG, I posted the decal for this event on the other two threads, so I'll post an image of it here also.

If you want one please let me know. You can pay at Centerville, but I'm not going to bring any extras. You can also order after we arrive Centerville, and I'll mail you one. The cost will be between $6 and $8.

Yep...here is my ad: http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?t=56880

I should be at Centerville though....I went to Uhaul today to check into getting a trailer to put the Marauder on...but they said my Suburban aint big enough to tow...that I needed a 3/4 ton or 1 ton truck...what gives...that is a big reason why I got the suburban was to tow the Marauder to events.

Vortex
10-20-2009, 08:18 PM
That sounds not right re: your Suburban, I would have thought the towing capacity would be up around 8,000 or so.

It was a good day, in spite of the State Parks people. I really enjoyed
seeing everyone again, it’s a shame we live so far apart.
My thanks to everyone that made it. I’m looking forward to our next get together.
I hope everyone made it home safely. Anyone who took pictures, please post them.
