If that's your question... my answer is No... if there is one, it would've been posted by now.

I have some idea and I'll shoot but see whose interested in helping me make this happen. Input is greatly appreciated as that's the hardest part about our club... is getting people to commit and make it happen. Just let it all out, you won't be stepping on my toe so don't worry about the other peoples toe. I think it's time we have a good talk in here to discuss event and ideas. 1. Have an event at a local Restaurant (chinese, greek, italian, american, anything food related $5-8 dollar a dish). We'll have a secret santa gift exchange for those attending, each can bring one gift worth no more then $5-10 bucks. (Perkins, Culvers, Baker Square or Apple Bee's etc.) 2. Have an event at someones place (I have a feeling I'm the only one on this site willing to host). We'll all chip in on a Turkey ($3-5 bucks ea. and I'll prepare and cook it for us. We'll have a similar game event like I had one last week. We'll still have the secret santa gift exchange going on as well. 3. We can get together at one of the local Bowling Alley and bowl as mention by Jordan and make it a Holiday event. We'll still include the secret santa gift exchange just to get that Holiday theme going.
I am up for anything. I havent met you guys yet and would like to. However, if we eat at vic's will it be safe to eat the food? Ha!
I'm game, the closer to Xmas, the easier it will be for me to make it. I like all of the already posted ideas (especially the restaraunt one, maybe ridgedale?). Anyway, someone set a date, maybe the 27th? and a location, and I'll see you there! And, for the record, I'd be willing to host at my house, but I'm 3 hours from the cities, and won't be there after the 22nd.
This weekend is the last weekend before Christmas... how about SAT or SUN? You started this tbone; make some decisions! Where? When? I think ppl will show up. Almost a dozen showed up at the last MN Subaru Meet and Greet. Also don't forget about the JAN 01 Meet and Greet :mrgreen: http://www.mnsubaru.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=1202

Don't do a pay first thing or there'll never be anyone. Have something planned so whoever attends can pay for themselves (restaurant-hong kong noodles). From the looks of it, it seems like lots are interested. If you don't have funds for fuel then take the bus better yet catch a ride. I'll probably be there along with the usuals. If it's not worth your time/hassle then dont show up at all. <hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></blockquote id="quote"></font id="quote"> X2
I'd be interested, but honestly this is just a really bad time of year to try and get any group of people to do something, heck try and get your family to agree on going to one place. Your best options are to just do something, get 3-5 people together and do something and leave the invitation open for other to show, maybe they will, but the probably won't, atleast you'll have a couple people to hang with. Maybe just getting together at some restaurant, although it's nice people are willing to have it at their place and even cook dinner, honestly it probably wouldn't be the best choice for december. I also think as much as you guys would like to do this before christmas, it probably better the week after. Would I attend? I dunno, but if you just go ahead and plan something with a couple of you guys and leave an open invitation, and I end up with free time I'd try and make it out, but this month being so busy it's hard to say in good advance. Prokart sounded cool, but I know I couldn't commit to a time and date very well, so rather than say yeah I'd be there and not show, so I didn't post on that topic. Sounds like some people put some hard work into the idea, it's too bad it's december, and I'm out of vacation time. -Nick
Like morgan said, you guys are all invited to our USMB meet, sure, it'll be mostly "old-schoolers" and there might (ok, will) be some wheelin' but there will be passenger space, don't stay home cuz you're afraid to break your ride.
WOAH!! it sound like I shouldn't make this thread. Sorry ya. But friday night thing would be nice day, Saturday? I have to make sure to take it off, but I want to see how many ppl are down with that event. I was thinkink MOA and players playing pool, but Vic came up with a brilliant idea.
Don't count on an event taking place this Month. I’m going with Matt and Russ to Chicago… wish us a Happy Trail

And you guys are all welcome anytime I'm around, just give me a heads up, but considering our inablility to gather people for a local meet, I doubt we could get 'em together for a 3 hour road trip.
i'm up for anything. but there is no snow to be sliding on. or we could go tubing at green ackers on hiway 36 then if anyone has the balls big enough. we can hit the demon trial.
