First of all, thanks to everyone that voted in the polls and came up with ideas for the meet.
Here's the plan: What-The NW 6gc meet for 2009 When-July 25th and 26th Where-Astoria, OR. Camping at Fort Steven's State Park (just 20 minutes from Astoria) Why-To hang out with some cool people, save some money by camping, and enjoy the city of Astoria. Meet at: Astoria column (1500-2199 Coxcomb Dr. Astoria, Oregon 97103) Meet time: 12pm. That should give most people enouph time to get there without having to wake up really early. There is a $1 visitor fee to park at the Column, but I think it'll be well worth it. We can hang out there, snap some pics of the cars, and check out the Column for a bit. Who- Attending: 1.JustinCapps 2.96bluevert 3.Jay(gen5coosthunder) 4.Enrique 5. Black94GT Maybe: 1. ra65_22re 2. Rayneezy23 3. Legit94gt 4. Tin Foil 5. 95celicast 6.creis (no celica though) 7.bizzerk What to bring: -Celica of course (if you have one) -tent -sleeping bag -camp stove and any other camping equipment you might want/need. -camera, if you have one. -two-way radio (so we can communicate easier while driving) -food Since we don't know for sure how many people will be there, I think we will have to do a first-come first-served basis as far as the campgrounds. Here is what we will do: Meet up in Astoria. Maybe hang out in Astoria for a little while, then head over to the campgrounds to get checked in and set up camp. If anyone wants my cell # just in case something happens or you get lost for some reason, pm me! This post has been edited by 96bluevert: Jul 20, 2009 - 1:18 PM -------------------- |

I don't mind if you bring a keg...so long as you share
The only thing would be that the minors amoungst us can't drink (sorry guys) b/c we will be in a state park and obviously it's illegal. Looking at the website, it seems you can fish. -------------------- |

^^^ Yep, it's officially happening.
I think if we get two tents per campsite, it'll cut down the cost, cause it's less to add an additional vehicle to a site than take up a whole nother site. Remember to bring some cash for the sites everyone! -------------------- |

It's cool if other forums come, but make sure they arn't going to be dumb***es and get us all in trouble. I don't want to be kicked out of the state park b/c of a few troublemakers, plus that would just make Celica owners look bad.
But I already posted this on TSNW and probably will on PSTOC too. But I know the people on those forms are all down to earth and won't make any trouble . -------------------- |

Ok, Since there arn't alot of places I could find that are good meeting spots, we will all meet up at the Astoria Column. It's a huge column on top of a hill overlooking Astoria and looks to be pretty cool.
So update: Meet at: Astoria column (1500-2199 Coxcomb Dr. Astoria, Oregon 97103) Meet time: 12pm. That should give most people enouph time to get there without having to wake up really early. There is a $1 visitor fee to park at the Column, but I think it'll be well worth it. We can hang out there, snap some pics of the cars, and check out the Column for a bit. -------------------- |

put me down on the maybe list. I'll see if I can make it. If the celica's not ready, I might have to bring the bike. Hope that's okay.

We probably should, especially since it's durring the summer time. But since there are only 10 definates for now, I could only reserve spots for those people. Would hate to reserve too many spots then find out some people couldn't make it.
I'll check if you have to pay a down payment first though to reserve. edit: Looks like there's a $6 reservation fee. If I can find 3 or 4 sites next to each other, I will reserve them. How do these sites look to everyone? http://www.reserveamerica.com/camping/map_...OR&parkId=2 site #49, 51, and 54 are available for those two days and are right next to each other...I'm having trouble reserving right now, so I'll have to wait until Monday when I could call in.

They allow up to 8 people to stay at one site. -------------------- |
