Default [EDIT - Date Change] Better Late Than Never - It's Time For a MI GTG (Warren Dunes)

It's definately past due for this to happen, but since it's kinda my baby to organize and I've been too busy to do it... well you get the idea.

So here is the date - Saturday 7/15/06. Every yearabout a dozen people state that they are going to make and every year about 4-5 show up. Let's see if we can top that. Again, in the past I've brought all the food and drink for all since it was my idea but I've gotten stuck with over 25 pre-made fresh hamburger patties for that to happen again... I ate cheeseburgers for weeks

Agenda - as usual, park the cars at a nice spot on the beach (bikinis are definately visable ) and shine them up, talk shop, show off our cars. This year I definately think we need to get some girls to volunteer and pose next to our cars. I had an offer one year but declined (wow was I stupid). Next we'll take a cruise along the georgous MI cost line and eventually make our way to Redemack(sp?) in New Buffalo, MI for what are arguably the best burgers in Michigan or anywhere else for that matter.

I've sent PM's to several people and have already stirred up the troops. Please post if you are interested in coming. The date has already been chosen so that several people can attend, so unless there is another date that would work for more people, it's set for 7/15/06.

Here is a "tentative" list of attendees:
- GOBOGIE "ME"
- MichelleJD & Anita
- Wizkid
- Friend of Wizkid (bringing 944)
- RM512 (Ron)
- Jerad
- Dan87951
- Chitown944
- amzi951
- Hacker-Prschh??? (bringing shark???)
- 944-LT1???

There are several that I have yet to here from so could be more to add.
Here's what you've missed in years past if you couldn't make it:

OMG. A post from Cory containing more than 5 words.

Not sure about the date just yet. It kinda depends on if I'm scheduled to be in Dayton on Monday.

Cory. We gotta talk, catch me on Yahoo IM sometime.

last year it was at the 3rd parking lot, only because i was there first, and was just going until i found a porsche.. there wasnt anyone else there, so i stopped @ 3 and waited assuming others would do the same... they did

i plan on dragging a new 944 guy in myself, and the new member here berglar is close enough to where he shouldnt have an excuse either

OK we have another person coming. Funny how this is turning out this year (not holding my breath though), normally I put a lot of planning and work into this and very few people show up. Where as this year I'm letting the chips fall as they may, leaving everything to the wind and saying come if you want and there's almost x2 the number already stating they are going to come.

Glad to have you Ron

I am from Mishawaka. What do you drive? I have an '83 944. I could easily hook up with you sometime if you want. I am a new owner and need a little guidance. Let me know.

Cool - I work on Grape Rd! We can absolute hook-up. PM and let me know when you would like to get together. Do you have a mechanic? I'll hook you up with the local Porsche club mechanic (we all use the same guy... he's awesome and honest).

Nice to meet you!
