Illinois/chicagoland meet, 9-10-06 at Starved rock - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #39752 113 posts Started by beastman
Ive decided that we need to get a chicagoland meet together! So i figured to go with tradition and meet up at starved rock in Utica, IL on September 10th, 2006. Thats the sunday after labor day. Im definately in for this meet and i figure we can all just meet up and and have a BBQ. Any takers?

plus i know its a little far away (as in date) but i figure this way everyone can get off work or pencil this date on the ol' calendar...wink.gif

laugh.gif so it is a sunday! i must have counted wrong or forgot to carry the 3.


i will try to be there, fear the power of the geo! tongue.gif are we gonna each bring something foodwise or just show up and the food is magically there?

the food question, hhmmm....i think we should wait till the week before to see who is coming and figure it out from there.
sounds like a good idea. we could always all go to a supermarket and pick stuff up and split the bill...

its about an hour and a half from me and you're probably about 45 minutes from me.

its a pretty straight drive for me, i just go west on 80. its like a 1/2 tank roundtrip for the ST celicas laugh.gif


would it be a problem if i invited my friend with an eclipse? he's a pretty cool guy

I might go if my car is still around (but it probably wont be). I am going to miss her....

Sale is pending as a few issues are being finalized. I fully expect to be without a Celica within 20 days.
