2nd Annual California Protege meet.

[RODSCALIP5]

O.k. how many people would be intrested in attending an all California Protege meet? I am going to contact the person who organized the first one and see what he thinks. The only problem is we have such a big state, some people would not want to drive. Last year it was held in Ventura, there were people from all the way up north and us from down south. Please if you are intrested post here with a place and date that would be best.


BTW it is possible that I could get the Mazda headquarters to let us borrow their parking lot. It would be a long shot. Its like a 50/50 chance.

Im down. It would be bad ass to have the meet at Mazda. Just fitting you know! just give us as advanced warning as possible on dates.

 

[jrodhotrod]

I would be down for something like this. I think a bunch of us Bay Area/HWY 9 folks might be down given we had enough notice to plan it out.

Where exactly is the Mazda Headquarters? Not anywhere near Ontario is it? (I remember seeing a bunch of Automotive manufacturers there when driving through)

 

[CruzinAltitude]

Im pretty sure its not in Ontario. Im also pretty sure Mazdas HQ is in Irvine off the 405, just south of John Wayne International Airport.

 

[RODSCALIP5]

Its in Irvine, California. the date would definitely have to be before the holiday season.

 

[jrodhotrod]

Irvine, that's what I thought... It's late, the brain is working a little slow.

Meet at Mazda would awesome. I am thinking it's going to have to be in November sometime to give people time to plan for it and not be too close too the holidays. My weekends for October are practically full already

 

[CruzinAltitude]

You thinking Early Nov or late Oct? The more the better. I have two fulltime jobs and need every bit of notice I can get!

 

[RODSCALIP5]

I'd say early Nov. I hope the guy e-mails me and wants to organize this, caus eI suck at organization.

 

[ZackyFarms]

im there, and willing to pitch in $ for food or whatever, possibilities for a BBQ?

About Mazda Headquarters, anyone gonna call or anyone have any hook ups? I dont mind calling, but i dont wanna just call and sound like a stupid ass if someone already knows how to arrange it

 

[RODSCALIP5]

I got a hook up. I know the brother who's one of the head honchos in Irvine. I pretty sure he's going to want to see numbers though. Maybe we should start a poll.

 

[o.g.sk8er]

I would be more than happy to attend.

5 people already, looks like a good start so far.

 

[mrpopnfresh]

Well you figure this weekend theres going to be a lot of Protege's there anyways. If that head honcho guy is there, he could see for himself how many might attend.
