Nice! Good to hear that everything is in order. I'm really looking forward to this meet. I'm sure you guys know exactly what I'm saying when I tell you that it SUCKS not being near any other members! I see a 6gc out on the road every once in a while, but nobody else is a member. And everyone else I see driving around is either a grandma or middle-aged woman who couldn't care less about the car.
I have ran into a red Celica with an Invader body kit on it around here, but I wasn't around my car and I didn't want to flag them down in the parking lot and be like "Hey guys, I love Celicas too!" and look like a total idiot. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

haha he probably would have thought you were nuts, but yea i wish there was more support for celica's, such great cars, when june gets closer we'll be able to pinpoint things down a lot easier, like me and keison are getting a hotel room close by because we live so far away we dont want to have to drive back the same day, keison would it be cool if more were to join us? i know you said of getting some sort of armed forces discount but i wasnt sure.

My birthday is on the 21st, and that is at Hooter's, so what better way to celebrate? Except it's a 5 hour drive. I'll think about it though. -------------------- "Employ your time in improving yourself by other men's writings, so that you shall gain easily what others labored hard for." -Socrates.

Haha a little early, but thanks anyway! I'm getting excited for this meet... It can't get here soon enough. It's motivating me to get a lot done to my car. I was just working on it as I felt like it, but now I would like to have a few things properly painted before then, maybe order new seat covers and get those installed, and maybe get my car lowered again. None of that actually has to happen before the meet, since I'm not in any hurry, but it would be nice if it could be!
Freddy, when is your birthday? Is it in December?

Yo, I'm from Champaign Illinois which is like right in the center of the state, I would be down to meet up with you guys, I am also down to come to STL next year. I am a chef at a hotel and I might be able to get discounts on the rooms as well!! Plus I could help with the BBQ thing, even though I would be on "vacation" I guess I could still cook...

More and more people hopping on board... A year ago, this meet wouldn't have been able to come together. I'm glad to see the Midwest has finally got a few more Celica enthusiasts running around.

QUOTE (freddy121389 @ Aug 28, 2009 - 2:01 PM) So I called the park, I can make a payment online to reserve the shelter for the 12th for the whole day would be 40$, I can make the reservation no problem, parking is only available if you rent a shelter and it would be on the shelter site. Before I make the reservation I just want to know how many are coming, I'm sure a small shelter would suffice for us. I'm assuming maybe max of 20 would show. Get the word out to everyone, I'd like a lot of people to show. So let's figure meet at the park around noon on the the 12th. We need to figure out who's bringing what, I'll bring a camera to take pictures. I have a good feeling we'll have a good turnout though. So has anyone actually made a reservation yet? What still needs to be done? This post has been edited by jimmykay: Sep 10, 2009 - 10:12 AM -------------------- '99 Celica GT - Sold
