Calgary Meet?

Just to try and get the ball rolling for a meet...Sundays work best for my self, but it might not be to the best interests of the group.

So lets figure this out, I'm new to the city so I don't have any idea of anything other than the places I've been to with friends.

Good food and ample parking I think is a must. could be a good chance for me to meet some new people

I've seen plenty of RX8s on the roads so I know Calgary has a healthy RX8 community

Too bad only like 5% of them are on here...

I'm up for a cruise...preferably on a Saturday...since I am working for the summer

But...I will probably be very emo after a few more days of work, and decide to come out on a Sunday...hehe

Leave it to a person from Winnipeg to set up a Calgary meet! haha... Welcome to the city.

Yeah, I will most likely be available on any weekend as long as there is a couple weeks notice. Good food, ample parking? Hmm.. a few suggestions would be Westhills, Chinook, some place along Macleod or somewhere out of town...

Chinook might not be bad...I'm gonna be busy for the long weekend, but should be good for any weekend after depending on times

Okay maybe we should figure out where everyone lives, i'm sure we would have to meet at a more centralized location, don't want anyone driving across the city to get to a meet.

There's a good place I ate at on 16th ave but very limited parking.

Good point. I haven't been there in ages. We can always meet somewhere first and then drive out of town to get something to eat.

Don't worry about where everybody lives ... we've had meets all over the city before. We can always meet at our default location (aka Macleod Hooters)
Other places include:
Earls/Joey Tomatoes on 32nd/McKnight in the NE
White Spot on 16Ave
Pete's Drive in but that place is way too rammed (at all times!)

Oh! How about Chestermere Landing Steak House and Wine Bar --> good buffet brunch on Sundays
