Ok all STL members & fellow MM owners, Lets try to get a few gatherings going.

Heres what I got. Maybe a gathering at my place 3rd weekend in August? The last 2 were a blast. Just hang out B-S BBQ & talk MM's. I have no problem at all hosting another meet but I also dont want others to feel like "out there again". Although this would allow Columbia member to be included in the madness, also there's a few new owners out this way 1 in Union & another in St Clair.

Then the other idea/suggestion is 2 diff gatherings on ILL side. one being Fun Ford weekend @ GIR (have to get date's) Then the 2nd option is weekend of big car show in Belleville(also need to get dates) I beleive both of them are in September.

So lets hear it what do you all think? Any others Ideas? Iam up for whatever......... CHIME IN:beer:

Look at Eric Jones post above for details. The PLAN:

Let's meet at Gateway Motorsports Park by 11 am on this Saturday, August 11, to be part of the Gateway Fun Ford Weekend. Temperature is to be 87 degrees for the high. Should be a great day.

Be there for registration between 8 and noon when it closes. I recommend you sign up for the Not-judged Car Show. It will cost $25 and will allow you to drive your car around the NASCAR racing oval at 5pm. It should also let us park as a group.

For $35 to $40, you can sign up for several different drag classes. Time trials start at 9am, Saturday.

It should be worth it just to park your car with the MMs at the cars show and wander around to look at all the cool Fords, Mercs and Lincolns. See you there. It's the IL 203 exit off of I-70 just east of East St Louis.

All, I got some discount tickets from my neighbor at ford. I can pm you my cell for anyone who needs one I can meet by the door at GIR. Also I believe you can get them at any ford dealer in St. Louis.

Not exactly what they are for... If they cover people entering the show or not I don't know yet. I will pick them up from him tonight and post back.
