13th Annual SLi New England meet!! August 27th (Sat.) 2016

[Reason]

The meet will be held at Colt State park In Bristol RI at 11am (I'll try to be there early). The meet will last till everyone takes off. Some years the majority of us didn't part ways till 8pm. We keep it simple, we show up, hang out, BS and meet some of the people we got to know over time on SLi. Some bring chairs and we kick the shit, some people bring food and drinks, some of us make a quick run to local grub joints up the road. Come by for however long you want, say hi and show off your car and check out the rest of the rides!

No clowns please, we will get kicked out of the park. Maturity is asked of you while you are in the park. Thanks

Time: 11:00am - 6 ish

UPDATE!

I didn't see a sign that says it's Colt State park so look for the bulls! You want to drive right between these two guys.

If for some reason we aren't at this location we will be SOMEWHERE in the park. I found a few hidden spots that we may have to use. That's why I urge you to swap numbers with people so you can call someone else that may have found the rest of us already.

I will also bring any SLi decals that I have, $6 each

[dodik]

yes,

[rkrenicki]

Indeed!

[Reason]

Ok I'll start looking when I have free time and we can go from there. Any preference on which month?

[Reason]

Also, if you want to be on a contact list tag me like Reason thanks

[rkrenicki]

I like consensus. The date itself does not matter to me, but it is Reason's thread.. he can put his own poll up ;)

[CaleDeRoo]

Where is this casual "meet-up"?

[Reason]

I think August 27th Saturday will be the day. That's 1 day I know for sure I have nothing going on.

[Muse]

That works fine for me. Plenty of time to ask for it off.

[Blayzed]

A Sunday would be optimal

[Reason]

No Sunday sorry guys, as it stands saturday August 27th is the day

[rkrenicki]

Sunday's make it tough for out of region members to attend. They generally use Sunday to travel back home.

I am good with August 27th. Already put it on my calendar.

[Yamazaki]

I'll be there if it's Saturday. Can't make the trip if it's Sunday. So is it official? August 27th? I'm not going to request time off until it's set.

[)2edline]

August 27th works for me! Glad I came back on to check the meet thread, this is what I wait for all year despite not having a Legacy LOL.

[Reason]

As of now August 27th is the day. Give me to the weekend to make sure I'm clear, I'm 95% sure...

[Yamazaki]

Okay, I'll submit for the time off.
I'll bring the Cappuccino!

[Casey]

My body is ready. But I might be a bit late. Working an event in southern Connecticut that day.

[Grimmrican]

I think the lgt will be ready by then.

[Reason]

Just a heads up, this is still set for August 27th 11am till around 6pm (longer depends of the departure of people leaving).

I will most likely convert this thread to the official thread when I can get in front of a computer.

[rkrenicki]

Go go, conversion to official meet thread, go!

[)2edline]

Less than a month out, let's get it going!

I'm in btw - maybe my brother will come along with me so I can bring both non-Legacy's.

maybe a weekend in newport with the gf as an excuse lol...

[Subafreak]

Guess I should have been paying attention during the voting. ������
No way I can make it, gonna be parking cars in my yard for the Brooklyn fair all day.
As it is I got two weddings, two suprize birthday party's, a cook out, and promised my son I would get him to Six Flags one weekend in August. ������
Maybe a September cruise? ������

[Blayzed]

Unfortunately I can't make it out on a Saturday. We're two salesmen short at the moment and the end of August marks the start of our busy season. Being that Sat. is our busiest day, taking it off is out of the question. My car is in mild state of neglect at the moment anyways due to a 3 month old daughter and a new garage I've been building. There's always next year I suppose.

[dodik]

i'll be there, hopefully. :smt039

Sorry that's a yes, I mean you come every year lol

[thenines']

Not sure what I'll have -might just drive my totaled '99 - '91 is at the tranny shop

[rkrenicki]

Not sure what I'll have -might just drive my totaled '99 - '91 is at the tranny shop

What happened? Are you okay?

[theniner]

got rear ended-I'll have pics this week-

[thenines']

I was at stop light (wicked solar glare) the person behind me stopped-but, the person behind her didn't-I finally got the '91 to the tranny shop-hope it can be fixed-right now-I am subieless and my rental turns into a pumpkin at the end of the week :(

[Reason]

Sorry to hear Nancy, glad you are fine.

Come on people spread the word. You all know 1 person with a Legacy close enough to come.

[Reason]

Bump it up

[thenines']

How about signs at the entrance? (at the gate/and to the parking lot we use)(where someone thinks they might have to pay to get into the park) I invited a couple of R.I. leggys over from Legacycentral-don't want anyone lost-like I almost was my first meet :)

[Reason]

They will find it, you have to pass that parking lot to leave, besides, I'm pretty sure you can't put up signs.

[rkrenicki]

Is this still at the same part of the park as before? I know you were talking about a different lot this year.

[Reason]

Same spot circled in the pic of the map, but to answer your question, yes the same place.

[thenines']

I have seen signs put up for people to show others where to go (in a good way!)- allowed for groups who pay for a pavilion only?

[Reason]

Yea probably, we should be good with no signs, maybe if we get enough people I'll rent a pavilion one year. And then maybe, we could have signs lol.

[)2edline]

I'll see about getting a harbor freight 10x10 tent thing. might be nice to hang out on a nice sunny day in that lot.

[Reason]

I don't think we can pop any tents, but I can call tomorrow and see.

[Muse]

Guys! GUYYYYYS!!! I'm really excited for this! That is all.

[dodik]

well it looks like I won't be there this year, unless I can reschedule a few things. having a side job sucks as all the planning goes out the door as soon as new gig comes along.

[)2edline]

I really enjoy seeing that Tribeca. Til next year!

[rkrenicki]

Another successful meet! Please post your pictures over in the picture thread: https://sl-i.net/FORUM/showthread.php?19834-13th-Annual-SLi-New-England-meet-Photo-thread

[rougeben83]

Hmmm sooo... I kind of thought it was today and drove out there with the gf :lol: I should've checked the thread cause I could've sworn it was Sunday!

[rkrenicki]

We were wondering about you yesterday. Oh well, it was still a nice day outside for the park, even if it was 3 hours away from you.

[rougeben83]

Hah, ironically I was saying to her how well traffic was moving & this would've been the shortest time it would've taken me to ever get there.

[Reason]

Ouch... sorry Ben

[rougeben83]

Ouch... sorry Ben

Ah, no worries Shane. We got some lobster rolls at Blount's clam shack and went to Newport afterwards. My fault.

I guess this year is the most late I've ever arrived to the meet? 25hours later? :lol:

[rkrenicki]

I suppose that is better than 25 hours early, as you would probably end up making the trip twice!

[thenines']

Hmmm sooo... I kind of thought it was today and drove out there with the gf :lol: I should've checked the thread cause I could've sworn it was Sunday! Shane does not do sunday :/ We missed you!
