    i know matt is planning a caravan to the warehouse meet... i was thinking us wrxatlanta peeps could caravan down to the location matt has chosen... this is gonna be one of the bigger subaru meets in the south east so here's an opportunity to show everyone how big our club really is... the turnout for the dyno day was real impressive... hopefully most of u will show up to this one too... do it for the club :bigthumb:

    we're gonna be meeting up at the parking lot for sam's club on clairmont rd... directions follow (thanks to BelvnAWD)

    Address:
    2901-A CLAIRMONT RD
    ATLANTA , GA 30329

    Traveling from the south on I-85, get off at the Clairmont Road exit and take a left (this should take you back under the highway) You will see McD's on the right and Sams club right behind it.

    I-85 traveling from the North, get off at the Clairmont Road exit and take a right. McD's will be on the right with the Sams Club right behind it.

    try to be there at 8am... i'll be there before 8... we need to meet with matt by 9... so we'll be leaving at 8.30am SHARP... come early and hang out for a bit... hopefully everyone on the list will make it before we leave...

    so far we have (16)

    I'd go except I have some prior engagements. We're having intitiation for the frat up in Tenn; Unfortunately, I've been booked for months prior :(.

    *sigh* You will be taking lots of pictures wont you Milo? :bigthumb:

    Also, if anyone wants handout cards, I still have a shit ton to give out. If you need some, let me know, and I will give them to Milo.

    In other news, the decals should be ordered by tonight. Except something like a 2 week turn around for them to be printed and cut. We're going with the original silver ones, but I am also getting a couple different samples (same design different size, different design all together, etc). I'll keep everyone posted.

    Milo is extremely correct. Show up and support WRXatlanta! This is a great opportunity for this club to emerge into the mainstream (more so than now), and really show that there is a place where Atlanta owners can come and chill and talk subaru. This event, if things go as planned, will be one of the most important for us, in terms of PR, for the year. If you have the time, or just feel like hanging out, this is going to be the one event you should attend. Not only will you be seeing those you know, you will get a chance to meet so many new people, talk about your experiences with your car, your future plans, your expeience with the club, and of course, get a tour of the warehouse. It is gonna be fun!

    Cheers,
    Alex

    Great idea! Milo, please add me to the list. I'll meet up with you guys before heading over to the pre-meet location. Any ideas on places to meet up? Once we pick a place, choosing a time will be much easier. And I promise, this time I'll have WRXAtlanta stickers on my car! :D :D

    meeting time would depend on how far away we meet... i was thinking we meet a couple exits away from cobb pkwy... that should give us a couple miles of driving... we could meet farther away if everyone wants (eg. my apartment complex)... for any of these locations, 8am should be a good meeting time

    there will be a big caravan from cobb pkwy to the warehouse since we will be joining with the nasioc gang

    so... any suggestions on location?

    we could always meet at the BP on north avenue... that will give us about 10 miles of caravan and its a pretty huge gas station that serves a bunch of stuff... interested?

    I'm 2 exits up from Cobb Pkwy in Smyrna, so my place wouldn't give us much driving time. I'm fine meeting up at Milo's place...can't really think of a good place a few exits north/east... anyone else??!?!? :confused:

    guess we coud also meet at perimeter mall and drive down 285 to get there... regardless of where we meet, we're gonna meet matt (2.5rs) at a starbucks at 9am so those who need their caffiene will get it eventually :D

    actually Milo, the meeting place changed. I should have let y'all know. Instead of whording B&N's parking lot, I moved the meet to across the street from it where Sports Authority is as well as the new Circuit City. It's the HUGE parking lot behind Hooter's and Chick-Fil-A. So, there will still be the Starbucks in B&N, as well as Chick-Fil-A for morning stuffs, or you can stop at Starbucks before you get there. On my pre-meet thread, I edited the original post with the new address and whatnot, even though it's only across the street! See y'all there!!

    :cool: :bigthumb:

    Hey you guys

    I dont post here much, but I am driving down from Clemson, SC for this, and if you guys are meeting on my way down, Ill stop by and cruise with yall if thats ok. Ive gotta get up early as hell already, so if its not too far out of the way, it would be cool to meet up with some more guys before the B&N meeting.

    you can put me on your list to meet and drive over to the main group at S. Cobb if you are meeting on the north side somewhere. Otherwise, I will see you there.
