Summer Meet at My Place!
I usually host two meets per year for the RX-7 guys, but looking to expand a little and include more Porsche guys and gals as well. Only a couple Porsche owners came last year, a guy from PA with a really nice Cayman S an a fellow 944 owner from Ohio. I'd like to extend the invite to any Porsche owner to come out and have some good food, and do some tech work and hang out. I have a small outdoor range for the firearms guys and some back road cruising if anyone is interested. I am posting the same post as I did on the RX-7 club forum and if anyone has any questions please feel free to pm me. If anyone would like to come and needs directions, please feel free to pm me. Hoping to spread the word and have a nice turnout!
Summer is upon us once again and now that I am confident that my yard will not be a swamp, I am going head first with the meet!! The meet will be held at my place in Vermilion OH on 6-21-14 and will start in the early afternoon, about noon or so. This should give those folks that are coming from a few hours away some time to to sleep and not have to get up at the rooster's crow of dawn. Plus with all of the food that we make, we can probably eat early AND later!! Basically whenever everyone starts showing up is when we will kick this thing into high gear, lol. As always, I will provide some food and some drinks and the means to prepare the food. Anything extra brought by attending persons would be much appreciated but not completely necessary. I am thinking burgers and hot dogs and brats. I'll be sure to get a couple cases of water.
The meet will be the standard fare, as I cannot host as much excitement as Cedar Point. The shooting range at my house is always fun and will be open and all are encouraged to do some shooting. I am a police firearms instructor, so I do encourage firearms safety as well as hearing and eye protection. Bring some own guns or use one of mine, doesn't matter. I should have some ammo to spare.. I have a cruise route mapped out so that we can do some back road driving. We can figure out how long we want the cruise to be once everyone gets here. I encourage pictures to be taken and we do have some cool spots around the area to stop and take pics!! Repairs are welcome at my place and I offer my help working on anything anyone decides to bring. I have the tools and feel we can take on any reasonable job presented. I can't rebuild a transmission in a reasonable amount of time, lol but most common repairs or installs can be done. As always there will be parts giveaways and plenty of parking and moving room! At the end of the day, for those who decide to stay late, I will have a fire and we can do 4th meal on the grill.
Please RSVP here or send me a message or text me or post here. I need to know how many people are attending so I know how much food to buy. If you need directions or have any questions please feel free to ask! I will provide my address in a pm, so if you need it, pm me or again, text me. Everything we do is based on what you guys want to do, so I am open to suggestions or comments.

I'll be nice and take the high road here. I have a couple stripped RX-7 shells that we could shoot.

Also, I wanted to add that even if you would like to come, it doesn't matter what car you bring out. Just looking for some good company!

Wifey was a little upset about the 'firearms guys' part, She loves her .38. She also used to have a RX7,.
We would like to attend, as it sounds like a fun time, but 400 miles is too far for me.

Understandable. I think 400 miles is a bit far for a one day meet. My wife shoots with us. I've run her through the same training program that I train other officers from our department on during firearms week. She's taken to it well. Glad to hear that your wife is into shooting as well! Those .38's can have a nasty little snap to them with a snub nose barrel! Pretty awesome to hear that she likes shooting one!
