Looking to set up a meet. Protege BBQ 03! Thinking about Como Park (becuase of size and such) but other places would be good if there are better locations that one can think of. There's a good park on Rice Street that I like also but my knowledge of parks s pretty limited.

Tentative itinerary:

5-6p arrive at park, get grills set up BS a bit
6-8p eat, BS some more play volleyball or bean bag toss ( if anyone has a setup for this anyway)
8p-whenever we drop, cruise midway or other likely popular spot.

I think by nature, we'll have to do BYOB and BYOF, We can use the grills in the park so someone might want to vollunteer bringing charcoal or we can just bring our own.

BTW anyone interested is invited, including Noobies, and people just interested in getting a protege.

Sounds good. Should we maybe do a pot-luck kind of thing?

jlanger

Something like one person brings chips other brings beverages, etc. Sounds good but the only problem with that is that everyone who says they're coming has to show up! Sometimes that can be difficult to do as people have a lot of things going on these days.

Mark_02DX

Good point. BYO it is.

normally i work on fridays, but i don't work a single one this whole month! i'll be there, maybe see if my girl wants to come also. then we can have some real eye candy

It's sort of ironic that I'm going to a car thing at Como, which is easy walking distance. Hell, I can SEE one of the ball diamonds from here.

jlanger

So I guess Como is the place? We should pick a lot to park at or otherwise We'll get lost. Mark as you're so close I vote you to scout and give us an exact address so we all can meet as that whole area can get a bit confusing to find certain places. (btw thanks for volunteering )

Mark_02DX

That's what I get for opening my big damn fat mouth...OK. I have a few ideas already. I'll go check sometime this week & find a good spot.

jlanger

thanks Mark! Give me a yell if you need any assistance.

Hey just found out about the meet, I'll be there, prolly a little later however I don't frequent this forumn, but am actively on mazdamp3.com

jlanger

bud_d you got an MP3? I saw a MP3 on univeristy parked at Saxon Ford with a bunch of other pretty sweet cars but felt a little wierd about stopping to say hey.
There aren't too many MP3's around here for some reason, at least none that come to the meet. Feel free to invite the TC/MN crowd from there if you'd like. I suppose I should go on the mazdaspeed and MP3 sites and invite them shouldn't I.

QQT

If I could I might come even though I don't own an Protege, since not many other 6 owners on the forums to organize a meet in MN.
