Summer Northeast Meet Feeler Thread

[djmatty]

Date:
June 9th

Location:
Hammonasset State Park, Madison, CT (Map)

Time:
2ish pm start time, until whenever

Plans:
Meet up at the park, have a meet and greet, barbecue. Have a cruise at 5 pm or so, getting back a bit before the sun goes down.
I can try to get sponsors to go.
People who are close by can come by for the meet and cruise. People farther can either camp at the park, or they can stay at one of the nearby hotels (if they don't take off for home).

We can rent a pavilion for $100. I'd front the money, and accept donations ONLY up to $100. Entry to the park is $3. A campsite is $20.
(All of those prices are what I've been told, not 100% sure).


Any input?

Mmm Carmen's car should be back by then and mine is a permanent fixture of his Boston abode, so I might be down. Be a nice prep, for the TMS meet the next day up in Amesbury.

[djmatty]

I'm going to call the park up tomorrow, I'll see if anyone there can answer that, lol.

[Vanilla Gorilla]

I'll be there and I'm sure a few other Boston Bimmer folks.

[3two8eye]

I'll be there, pending work.

[djmatty]

Ok, I'll get the specifics set, and make a thread.

[briansol]

sweet.

yeah, if anyone near by can just drive through and check their cell service, that would be great. usually close to the ocean the service range drops.

[Vanilla Gorilla]

What is your job that owns you so bad? Obviously its worth it though because you have an 04 M3

[Point401]

They said there is sprint service there.....not sure how much I believe them, though.

Anyways, I have some updated prices:

$150 to rent the pavilion for a day, which has 6-7 picnic tables.

$9 admission per car for CT residents
$14 admission per car for non-CT residents

~$15 + fees for campground site


Who's still interested?

[M3Jay14]

ima try to make it to this

[djmatty]

Bump.

Any more input?

If I'm driving from MA I really don't wanna pay. It costs me at least 25 bucks to drive there! I personally don't need a pavillion and I will bring food for myself and the group. I'll still throw a few bucks if everybody really needs a pavillion but I don't think it should cost more money for non CT cars. Were the ones making the long drive to support the cause.

[GrimReefer]

I'm in 100% i'm only about 10-12 miles away. i'd be willing to go and help set up if you wanted some help.

[Vanilla Gorilla]

Since your the grimreefer do you have good nugs? If so then you can bring them to the picnic along with the bimmer.

I believe that the cost detailed are actually the cost to enter the park and not some "fee" for this meet.
