DFW: ROAD-Club first official recurring meeting - August 3rd 2004

I'd like to setup the first official Rotary Owners Association of Dallas Club meeting. This meeting would be the first recurring meeting (once or twice a month on a set day, like the first and third tuesday or thursday of the month) so we can discuss events and stuff.
We havent met in a while, so this week or next week would be great! I'd prefer next week since setting it up as a recurring meeting would be much easier.
Now, I'm gonna ask, when and where would you all be available?
The place we set this time may likely become the place we set for every recurring meeting in the future.

So when are the most people available and interested and where would you like to meet?

Please post here and let's get this thing goin!

Thanks,
Jon

Friday nights, weekends. Anywhere in N. Dallas, Addison, Richardson, Plano - somewhere with an attractive wait staff, like BoneDaddy's . Once a month is plenty for me. I'd also be interested in group buys for track days, driving schools, etc.

Bonedaddy's is very popular with this group.
I'm surprised that some of the guys who have already been aren't chiming in here.
We are definitely looking at a group buy for driving school.
Track days would be fun too, but only after driving school! :b

My schedule makes it hard to meet on the same day or date each month. I'll try to make whenever I can. BoneDaddy's is a good place to meet.

Tuesday or Thursday sounds good to me. I'm also open to any meeting place... BoneDaddy's has been a good place with plenty of parking for the 8's but am open to somewhere else.

Tuesday's has worked well for the club down here... We have found that it does a few things to have a weeknight meeting..

1 - keeps the po-po's off your back
2 - less kids (or idiots hanging around causing trouble)
3 - tends to bring out the real enthusiasts, rather than the weekend warriors

overall since our switch to Tuesdays about a year ago, we have seen a better class of people hanging around the club. (It didn't hurt that RX-8 owners joined us about the swame time!)

(ppsst we chose the first tuesday of the month because it conflicts with the least amount of "out of towner" holidays (Christmas/Thanksgiving/Memorial Day/SuperBowl etc)


[I know the superbowl isn't a holiday, but I'll be damned if they don't celebrate it like one!]

I should be able to make it... what time? Maybe around 7:00pm. The last time their were some people who couldn't stay because they get up early to go to work. That is why I suggest 7:00pm, but that might be too early for some.

But of course I'm always up for Hooters in Grapevine.
I've included their calendar (hasn't been updated for August yet) and some pics from their carwash which was on Saturday 07/31. I know Grapevine isn't really in Dallas, but it's kind of between Plano and Southwest Fort Worth.
