[BonzoHansen]

July 2017 Meet - Sat 7/15 Duke Island Park, Bridgewater

It's time for our annual BBQ! July is the perfect time for T-Tops, Barbecue, and park activities!

We are going to do the same thing as last time, which most thought worked very well: We're going to let Bill spearhead this thing. (The bigger they are, the better they grill! :kneeslap:) We'll pool our funds together & send WBT out to the grocery store with a grocery list again. A $10 Buy-In should cover things.

When: Saturday July 15, 2017
Time: Starts at 12pm, start grilling around 1

Where: Duke Island Park (http://www.somersetcountyparks.org/parksFacilities/dukeIsland/DukeIslandPk.html)
191 Old York Rd
Bridgewater, NJ 08807

If you have any special dietary requests or allergies please let us know in advance and we will do everything we can to accommodate you or your guest.

You can feel free to bring things as well, however you will still need to pay the meet fee. Any proceeds will be used to help keep the lights on here.

Cut pieces of 2x4 will be left near the speed bumps for you stancebros that need ramps. As long as the rangers don't move them. :-P

No problem Dave. You can pay on-site if you want, I think we have enough people prepaid at this point.

[ar0ck]

I'm excited! The Firebird is ready to rock and roll in all its zip-tied half-assed glory!

[PolarBear]

I will be paying cash, hopefully you'll have change for $100s. I told my cousin to pay me back the money he owed me in $2s, but he did not comply

Just be there around 12 and we should be fine. I've got lighter fluid and a starting chimney so that's all covered.

You prefer diet Coke to diet Pepsi, correct?

You're coming to my house to get it. It's <1 mile away and also on your way.

I'm scheduled to pick my car up at the tuner by 10am Saturday morning, so I likely won't be at Quikcheck with you guys & will just see you down there.

It's a Duke meet. There is always the chance of rain.

Supposed to be 86 and partly cloudy by 11AM

[IROCZman15]

No problem Dave. You can pay on-site if you want, I think we have enough people prepaid at this point.



Thanks Bill. Welp, unfortunately I did not make it out to Maple grove so that is a good thing because now I can come to the Duke meet tomorrow. Sorry for the late notice but I had been waiting to make the decision until this morning. You can count me in; I will have cash on hand for payment.


While I'm there remind me to ask you guys for ideas on where to mount front/rear tow hooks/straps on the car (temporarily). it is required this year for the Optima Ultimate Street Car event that is about 1 month away. I am leaning towards straps with a simple through bolt to a solid chassis area. Nothing hideous and nothing that could potenitally damage any body pieces etc. I have a few ideas, but maybe people in the group might have different ones. They have to "be" there to pass tech

[PolarBear]

Pat and I will be there, and we're going to sit in the Banana with the AC on, the whole time

[WildBillyT]

Food is bought and there is plenty of it. Show up hungry everybody.

If you are seeing this and are a lurker, show up and enjoy.
