Default Mike J's 10th Annual pcarworkshop BBQ! - August 15th, 2015

This is a special event this year - the TENTH annual BBQ, I cannot believe I have been doing these events for 10 years straight - wow!

The Mike J's 10th annual shop day this year on Saturday, August 15, 2015.

This year's theme is "Giving Mike a BREAK", so the shop will be open but only light duty maintenance items that you can do yourselves with some tools, or with a little bit of assistance. No clutch jobs please .... we can do those on Sunday.

After last years RECORD 993 Pinning party (18 cars in 7 hours!) I realized I spent 10 hours in the shop and about 20 minutes visiting, so this year, given its a special anniversary, I figured it's time to mingle. That might reduce attendance ...

Like last year, we will be raising money for a charity. Last year we raised $500 and my company matched that with another $500 which means we contributed $1000 to two of the local Women's shelters that focus on battered woman (my daughter's choice!). That was FANTASTIC! This year I hope to continue that tradition!

Schedule:
9:00 - The shop is open for mechanical work, I will be down there setting up.

11:30 on - The BBQ will be fired up for lunch depending on the appetites etc (maybe earlier!!)

5:00 - wrap-up

Directions:
Click here for a map to 5691 Bessborough Drive Burnaby, British Columbia

Hopefully the weather will be great! Even if it's raining the shop is large enough to have at least two-three cars undercover.

It would be great if those coming would either post or PM me so I have an idea on how much supplies/food we will be needing...

This is a Porsche event, not a 993 only event, and all the models are welcome of course.









Cheers,

Mike

Mike,
So cool. I can't believe this is the tenth event. I cruised right by there with my 993 on September 12, 2005.

Gosh my car looks messy under there. I have cleaned it up somewhat since so need to put it on the lift just to take a pic again.
Congrats Mike - time flies!
I will be there!

Wish I could be there. I'll be close (visiting Seattle), but not close enough and not with my 993.
