Ok guys, its that time again. I need to try and narrow down a date for the Elkhorn meet in 2010 so I can ensure I get the park reserved. So what works for you, I think we will keep it on a Sunday as the turnout was by far the best. As most of us are aware. Carlisle is first weekend in June, Fathers day is June 20th and the CVN/MMN STAP caravan is looking like its June 25th. So do we want it earlier or later this year.

Please throw out some dates that work well for you guys, I have this on CVN also so I will try and look at everything and pick what works best for everyone.

Welcome to the MM.net Miltown. Also if you have not already done so. Make sure you sign up over at Crownvic.net. Most of us are over there also and the information for your car is endless.

Last year we drew between 25-30 cars and it was an awesome time. Its held at Sunset park in Elkhorn and I rent the shelter.

Hope to have you join us, its a really good time.

Well, If you want to send me a PM with your sign up info. I will send a message to the site owners and see if I can have them look into the problem and try to get you registered.

Thats because the mod (Steve) is a putz. Sorry if I offend anyone, but thats my take.

I had a feeling that someone was slacking on their end. As for dates maybe sometime in middle to late July?

The June date sounds good to me.
Are we going to try for a bigger meet at JC Whitney this coming spring too?

I won't be able to do that June date. So at this point I am looking at Mid July. It will definitely be a Sunday again as that worked great this year. Id say we tripled the car count, from the first meet. I think the location helped quite a bit too.

And Lar, if I can get the day off work, count me in for Whitneys...

End of June...Bad. My wedding anniversary. July 24 and 25 would be bad too. At least for me that is. Wifes birthday is the 23 and I dont think she would want to hang out with a bunch of car guys on her birthday.

I actually like that also Lar. I just wasn't able to get any vacation time in June but I can maybe get shift trades.

How about the 11th, 18th or 25th of July since June seems to be kinda out of the question

Quasar3210
12-20-2009, 04:01 PM
Yep, I am leaning towards the 11th or 18th of July. At this point I will get a call into the Elkhorn Parks Dept and see whats open. I am assuming we should have our choice for the most part. Which is exactly why I started this thread so early.

Ok, Latest update. It looks like it will be July 18th, 2010. Just waiting to get the rental agreement for the park in our hands to make it official.

Date looks good to me right now. As long as I'm not camping, I'm game.

I am thinking I am gonna skip getting the alchohol permit this year. I don't think anybody drank last year. Would not being allowed to have alchohol make the meet a no-go for anyone? Still shooting for July 18th, but I have been very short on cash, always something going wrong it seems.

No cake jumping this year. I'm working on maturity... Not sure how long that will last.

UncleLar
03-12-2010, 04:55 PM
Maturity? I'll let you know when it starts to really kick in for me,it seems like age doesn't always seem to mean maturity,lol.

Gonna try and do this a little differently this year. Rather than try and put a post here and in the windy city section. I just made the official meet post in the events section. If you are able to make it, please go here and sign up. http://www.mercurymarauder.net/forums/showthread.php?p=880305#post88 0305

10 a.m. till when

We should be there until at least 4 or 5 PM. Last year I think we were cleaned up by and gone by 6PM. But if there are still people there and were just hanging out talking it could be later too. Hope your able to join us.

Ok, this is gonna be a bit of a long post. But I have a ton of people to thank.

First of all, THANK YOU to everyone who came out and attended this meet. I had an awesome time and really enjoyed seeing all the hard work come together in such an excellent outcome.

I would say we had at least 35 cars once everything was said and done. Thanks to those who came from very far away to hang out with us for the day. Relsoc all the way from Indiana. Achtungnu all the way From the Minneapolis area.


Then of course there is Not_Grandpas_Marquis. From reserving the park, to bringing the grill to bailing me out when Fricking Scams Club wouldn't accept my Visa card....Apparently Visa is evil at Sams Club. This would absolutely not be possible without his help. Zak THANK YOU!!

Also would like to thank Jarrett(GearGuy) for running the Grill all day, so we didn't end up with crispy burgers. JKW for bringing all the Chips and Midnight Stalker for bringing all those cases of sodas. And of course N_G_M's family for the Mostacholli(SP??) and deserts.

I am sure there are still people I am forgetting, and if I didn't directly mention you, Thank you for making this meet a Giant SUCCESS!!!

Hope to see you all next year.


Tom
