6th Annual Potluck BBQ Meet @ Griffith Park - May 31, 2009

[Mark_Dorman]

So MR2oc is having their annual Griffith Park Meet. I went last year and it was huge. Hope a lot of you can make it.

I was thinking we could meet up around 10:30am and head over to Griffith Park together. I was thinking we could meet up at the VONS in Glendale off the 134 Freeway (see address below). This is close enough to Griffith Park that no one will get lost on the way and we can purchase supplies for the Potluck without worrying about anything going bad. I will print out Maps as well so no one gets lost by accident. Hope to see you all there...

Address:
561 N Glendale Ave
Glendale, CA 91206

If people want to meet up from their prospective origins to meet up at Vons then post it here (IE: San Diego People/Orange County Poeple/Etc...).

[deucegirl03]

yay this will be fun i am excited!

[Davis]

I'll meet you guys there, I'm going to be in Riverside this weekend.

[Mark_Dorman]

You gonna meet us at the BBQ or at Vons?

[Davis]

BBQ.

[Mark_Dorman]

Cool...

[Ben]

I remember going to this 2 years ago......

[randomxzero]

Ahh i wish i can go!!!... havent seen you guys since mixxers lowering meet...

[Mark_Dorman]

You should come. Maybe you can hitch a ride with mixxer or christian.

[randomxzero]

ya imma ask mixxer if its no problem to roll with him..
thx mark..

[Davis]

I guess I'm going to meet up at Vons!

- Gopro hero camera, check.
- Directions to Vons, check.
- Cute friend in passenger seat, check.

[Mark_Dorman]

^Nice davis!!! Props!

[Davis]

Alrighty then guys, I'm not going to meet up with you guys at Vons, I'm going to be meeting up with the oc guys at Autobacs.

[Mark_Dorman]

Really? Lame

I'm gonna have to admit I'm disappointed with the MR2.com response. Sounds like there's only gonna be a few of us there. Oh well...maybe next time.

[PumpMag]

Hmmm.

Might be cool to check out your rides at Vons if any of you are there early. However, I have another event to attend around 10:00 am also. So I won't be able to join you at Griffith park.

Unfortunately my 87 MK1 is dusty & dented & battle worn. But it still gets a lot of good comments from bystanders. Maybe, I can at least rinse it off.

[Davis]

Well what do you expect Mark, we don't have that much active members here. It's just You, Mixxer, and I that frequently post.

[masagsxr]

+1 Davis hehehe... We're the only ones that keeps this board alive LoL

[Ben]

There needs to be more meets that don't revolve around the OC meets. Meets like my Mission Bay meets and the lowering spring meets get people over here. Yeah let people over there know, but have the majority of the information here and people join.

[Mark_Dorman]

We have plenty of meets that don't revolve around OC meets. Was just complaining . We get good enough turn outs at most of our meets...I can't really complain haha.
