Houston - Any Interest in a Domestic Galveston Meet?

Hey Homies! I posted this on another domestic board that I visit a lot and wanted to share it with you guys too. We are trying to plan a "domestic tuner" Galveston meet. It would be a meet strictly for GM smaller cars/compacts ....

I was talking to a couple of people here in town and thought it would be a cool idea if we had a Galveston meet. Would any of you be interested? During my jbo days we tried planning a few Galveston meets but they never really materialized. But I think with the help of a few locals to help plan/reserve locations we can make something like this happen.

There aren't many Cavalier enthusiasts around Houston anymore, so I thought we could team up with other domestic car owners. There are Grand AM owners eager for a big meet. The Chevy Cobalt clubs are growing and doing pretty well. We could just all get together and have one big beach meet. It wont have to be too serious, just a little meet and a cruise and maybe a bbq on the beach or even just all hang out at a restaurant.

I'm going to look into finding some good locations to pick from and then discuss this with a few friends from other boards and see what develops. Post opinions! Comments! Ideas! Dates?

... that's it. Let me know if you guys are interested in this. We could plan it for late spring/summer

Yeah that's the plan. The date is not set yet, but it will be on a Saturday, sometime in the Spring. How does March sound? I am working on reserving a park or parking lot for us to arrive at. I want to make sure we are safe from the cops and tow trucks harrassing us. The schedule would look something like this:

10AM - Arrive at the meeting spot in Galveston, meet and greet between all the Domestic clubs, chance for everyone to take pics and vids, and wait for late arrivers.

12 or 12:30 - Roll out towards the west end of Galveston and begin a long cruise down the entire seawall towards the east side of the seawall.

1PM to 3PM - Meet for Lunch at a restaurant with plenty of parking. We can make reservations so we will all have a place to sit.

3PM to 4PM - This time slot is not clear yet. We can use this time to meet somewhere with a nice scenery to take some sweet group pics, maybe somewhere by the Strand?

Late Afternoon - Crews can split up and do their own thing. There are a ton of things to do in the afternoon/night in Galveston.

This is just a rough outline of what I have in mind. I just need some ideas from you guys about what exact date we should do this thang! I want to pick a date that everyone can attend. So far I have interest from a few Cobalt owners, Cavalier, Grand AM owners, and we are working on getting the message to a few Ford Focus and Dodge Neon clubs. I don't know how you guys feel about non GM cars?

Hey TT! Yeah I saw your car on Myspace and I saw those TTF Galveston meet pics/vids. Our meet probably won't be that huge but still should be a lot of fun.

Small update: I've got a few folks telling me an April/May meet would be good for them. There are a few people doing some work to their cars. But I'll keep you guys updated. Add me to your Myspace!
