    ***Map link to cruise route: http://goo.gl/maps/lucqL ***

    Well here we go again ladies and gents! I know that it's only March and still cold outside, but it's time to start thinking warm thoughts!!:cool: The 2014 LaXCruise will be celebrating it's 8th year and the date is set!! Come celebrate the 8th annual summer cruise and our 10th year of the forum/family with us!!!!

    Saturday-June 14th, 2014!!
    What is it and what is to be expected!?....

    Cliff notes: The LaXCruise is a lengthy Subaru enthusiast driven cruise to LaCrosse, Wisconsins Copeland Park where we have a HUGE shelter rented to park the cars under to protect us from the summer heat or rain! It is a family oriented cruise that i thought up many years ago that allows us to enjoy a long drive accompanied by a BBQ, raffle with Subaru inspired prizes, games/shenanigans, and also camping for those of us that like to make a night of it and carry on the fun into Sunday! Plan on a beautiful drive to WI, accompanied by great friends, a chance to admire others Subies, awesome prizes donated by our sponsors that promote Subaru love in MN, food and games!

    ***In order to really make it work, we need people to get signed up early and clear their calendars!***

    ***If using Paypal to make payment, plz send to: [email protected] ***
    ***Cash payments can be made with arrangement. I can usually meet you at Lake Calhoun for the Tuesday meets (Please PM me if paying cash)***
    COST!?----$15/adult and $5/child will be the amount to get lunch and raffle tickets to partake in the raffle! Pre-paying IS a requirement and is non-refundable! I can't afford to take on the costs out of my own bank account! The raffle, as many of you already know, is comprised of some pretty great stuff! The money collected will help cover the shelter rental, food and some of the prizes/entertainment!




    \/\/\/'Soft' Itinerary (may be some additions)\/\/\/

    Saturday-June 14th

    8am-Arrive at Inver Grove Heights Walmart in the North parking lot. Smooze and grab your cruise route info and raffle tickets and prepare yourself for a day of Subaru bliss!

    Location address:
    WalMart
    915 Cahill Ave, Inver Grove Heights, MN
    (We meet on the north side of the building closest to Concord)

    9am-We leave promptly at 9am to ensure that we arrive just before lunch time. This allows myself and other volunteers to get food ready (if there is no caterer)and get stuff set up and also get the mass amounts of Subarus parked!

    11:30am-Arrive at Copeland Pavillion in LaCrosse, park cars, set up, and get ready to eat!!

    12pm-Lunch time! Omnom (depending on the turnout and pre-registration #'s, this will be a hot lunch, either catered by a local LaCrosse catering service, or by the club and volunteers)

    1-1:30pm-Games and Subie fellowship...check out the cars!!

    2pm-Around 2ish, we will begin the raffle and start giving away subie goodies and or subie-
    related goodies thanks to our local sponsors! You don't want to miss it!!;)


    After the raffle (3pm):
    **We have the shelter until 7pm, so we can hang out and enjoy the summer day and the mass amount of Subarus into the early evening. After the raffle, you are pretty much able to do whatever you'd like, whether it be head back to the cities, drive up to Grandads Bluff to enjoy the sunset, or just hang and enjoy eachothers company!

    We will be heading to Goose Island Campgrounds in the early evening to get tents set up and have dinner for those that are feeling up to it (cost is about $18/site)! We usually come up with some fun night time activities for those that stick around Saturday night, and caravan back together or in small groups on Sunday morning before or after Perkins breakfast. We may have a Sunday cruise up WI. Hwy 35 this year, details to come!

    Also I can attest to wonderful prizes as last year I was able to win the gopro. It will make the trip with me this year to add to the cruise footage! So far just me but I'm sure that will change!

    That sucks, blame it on the fact that there are only like 5 weekends per year where it is pleasant to have an outdoor wedding in MN.

    For real, they can keep their polar vortex. I can't wait until global warming melts the ice caps and MN is oceanfront property ;)

    I'll likely do what I've done the last couple years and cruise down and back. Gotta make sure that date is good.

    since you drive up and down during the cruise, you and the wifey should do a vid this year.

    We don't have a quality vid of this group. Its a little sad.

    Lulz, I used to do promotional modeling with NOS 20lbs, 1 kid, and 2 bad welding accidents ago. Still have cases of it formenting in the basement if anyone is interested in those or 4 year old t-shirts and landyards that I never got around to handing/throwing out.

    Going to try and make it if I have a suitable subie by then. Is at least the day portion kid friendly?

    There is a separate 10 year anniversary Members Appreciation Night currently being planned. That said, the raffle prizes will be different but still desireable.

    The entire cruise and pavillion segment of the day is planned as a family friendly event. This portion is funded and sponsored by mnsubaru. After-hours camping is more "adult" and not sponsored by mnsubaru (just organized by it's members).

    NOS rocks. Best energy drink out there in my opinion. Beats just about all of them on the milligrams of caffeine per ounce of product scale.
