    EDIT:
    Ok since some are not interested involleyball, lets stick to the US Play idea for the first meet. Its going to be thursday the 24th. Lets meet at 7:30pm in the parking lot and when everyone gets there we'll go get a lane...

    Sound good? Lets get some attendance!! Hopefully everyone that chimed in down below can make it...


    Orig. Post:
    I'm trying to gather interest in starting a Bi-Weekly or monthly WRXATL meet for the Marietta/Kennesaw peeps. I know there are a decent ammount of meets but it seems like i can hardly ever make it out to them since they are so far away from my area :(. Lets fix this! :D

    Who would go to a regular meet to go bowling, or play pool, maybe volleyball at sidelines, chill in a parking lot, eat somewhere or just something to hang out with our fellow wrx'ers in our area?

    I would be down for planning a monthly bowling meet if enough people are interested. I mentioned that when we were at US Play. That would be fun....

    Sweet, it looks like we'd have a decent turnout :). In a day or two I'll go ahead and set a date for our first meeting... Gonna let some more peeps chime in before then and give their input.

    I'll try and make it out to whatever I can if I'm not working. School's out for the summer so I've got a couple weeks of lots of free time until 8-20 when it starts back up.

    If thats what the meet evolves into I'll pass. I'd rather hang out as far away from the ricers and assholes as possible. May as well go to Moreland if I want to see that kinda action.

    Yeah, I'm not up for cruising local roads. I'd rather meeet up with other members and socialize.

    Maybe we can make plans for a road trip or mountain drive later.

    There's a huge parking lot off Wade Green that the stunt bike guys use on Thursdays. I would guess that we could probably use the same lot on a different night and bring some cones to make a mini auto X... (not kidding)

    or we could cut the lock on the old Malibu Grand Prix and use the old go kart tracks that are still there. (kidding)

    Hey I'm still up for Wed. It would be cool if we at least could survey the parking lot, in addition to the actual meet-up.

    If I don't see anything posted here I will i will show up at 7:30 PM sharp at U.S Play and check the parking lot.


    Does 7:30pm sound like a good meeting time if this meet is going to happen?

    Ok, i was mistaken then. Since this was such short notice and there were only a couple people that might have made it, lets go ahead and set the date for thurdsday next week. Does anyone have a problem with that?

    Another thing we could do is play volleyball at my buddys complex. they have a sand volleyball court and a pool. they always have a good bit of people playing on wednesdays so we coudl get a few teams together (not sure if i mentioned this before, don't feel like reading all that...). Thoughts?
