    Guys I am going to have to POSTPONE this due to lack of time
    If anyone still wants to run with this let me know and I will talk with you and pass on any details

    Ok folks. Here is the poll to get this GTG organized.
    Please vote on a date ASAP, so we can get details laid out.

    What: Cook Out and Family Fun
    Entry Fee: $8 (gets you into the park for the day, includes laser show)
    Things to do: hiking trails, lake, BBQ :), climb mountain,

    24th is better for me.
    i have an autocross down here on the 18th...if the meet is on the 17th, that doesn't leave me with time to prep the car.

    I hope to God you call ahead and let them know you are coming and make sure they approve.

    They will kick you out in a heartbeat. It's private property and they don't like IMPORT car clubs.


    We had 60 cars all pay to get in and parked. They came over in the cop cars and asked us to leave. We didn't do anything....they didn't care, we weren't condusive to a family place. WTF?

    We said they would have to refund our money and they were happy to do so.

    They lost ALOT of money and didn't bat an eye.


    I suggest you go somewhere else.

    I'd prefer the 24th. I'm not 100% sure if I can make the 17th. Sounds super exciting! Last time i saw the laser show was when i was only 3 years old. seriously.

    It never hurts to check ahead of time, I 'd just hate for all of you to get there and then get run off.

    We too had womenz and babies but the police/ security didn't care one bit. We planned on making a day of it and hiking up the mountain.

    I'll never go back.

    ya if you get an an arguement in a tent you can't really slam the flap for reinforcement of your anger. hehe mitch hedberg

    as long as my 240 can clear stuff over there I am cool with going
    hopefully after raising the rear a 4th time I can go down the road without clanging the super load demon tanabe racing med. I haven't even tried a speed bump yet :eek:hnoes: .

    I said either day.

    Plus I say we make it camp if you want to, cause I know I'm driving too far after a day of activities and stuff. A few people can get spots and lots of others can chill, and/or catch shuttle type rides back and forth to the parking lot and stuff.

    After. It's not the cool place it used to be, in terms of a group of cars going in and parking and enjoying the day. :rolleyes:

    just FYI, Coastal Empire SCCA has an AutoX on 5/18/06 in Savannah. Don't know how many of the Savannah Suby crowd this effects :) Probably not a whole lot, but figured I'd throw it out there.

    do we have a date for this yet?
    also, i saw that the warehouse meet is supposed to be on the 24th...is that going to affect the date for the sav/atl meet?

    If Stone Mtn doesnt work out, there is a place about 45 mins to an hour south of atl called High Falls. It's no where as cool as Stone Mountain, but it has a lot of room for parking and picnics. It is a state park, so it costs $3 a car load to get in.
    There is plenty of room for football or frisby, and there is a lake and obviously a waterfall. You can fish if thats your thing, there is also a place to hike down to the bottom of the falls. It's a really neat place, that wont be nearly as crowded as Stone Mountain would be, plus it's a lot closer for the Savannah peeps.

    Just an idea...

    This may get tenatively postponed. My schedule with work has just gettin mad crazy, so my time is very very limited to get this thing rolling.

    Just a heads up to folks. I will hit up a few others about taking this over for planning.
