The Mazda6Club is having their Texas Statewide Meet at Mansfield Dam Park in Austin on January 7, 2006 at 1:00 PM.

Currently, the plan is to meet at Mansfield Dam Park off of Lake Travis at 1pm. We will have BBQ (for those who pre-pay) and then spend some time hangin' out and such. In the evening, we're planning to take a drive in the hill country or see the sights of Austin for those interested. Around 9 or 10, those interested will head to 6th Street and the Warehouse district.

Mazda South is currently planning to bring a Mazdaspeed6 out. If one is unavailable they will at least bring out an 06 for us. They also plan to bring some Mazda koozies, t-shirts, hats, etc. depending on what they have on hand at the time. As some of you may or not know, Mazda South runs mazdastuff.com which I mentioned so there is a possibility of them giving away something bigger lottery style. T-shirts are a possibility as well. We're currently researching the details.

Food:
$10 a person if you will be joining us for Rudy's BBQ. Money will be due Thursday January 5, 2006 so we can place the order on Friday. To reserve your food, CLICK HERE. If you have a meat preference (see below), specify it with your payment.

What the $10 will get you:
* 1/2 lb Sliced Meat Per Person *
(Brisket, Turkey, Pork Loin, Spicy Chopped or Sausage)
Chicken & Ribs may be added NOT substituted.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
3 Deli Side Dishes
(Spicy Beans, Potato Sasld, Cole Slaw, Cream Corn, or New Potatoes)
Sliced Pickles, Onions & Whole Jalapenos
Fresh Sliced White Bread
Rudy's Bar-B-Q "SAUSE"
Brewed Iced Tea
Bagged Ice
20 oz Rudy's Trophy Cups
Lemons
Sugar and Sweet & Low
Plastic Packs
(fork, knife, spoon, napkin, salt & pepper)
Plates
Serving Utensils & Tongs
Checkered Tablecloth

Now as far January and weather issues, there is a very good reason for the date we picked. It is fall break for college students! That allows some of the younger folks that aren't from Austin to attend. Otherwise it would be pushed to May. I would expect another meet from us in the summer but that is too far off to plan for now.

If you know anyone else who drives a Mazda and would like to come, please invite them here or reply for them.

Hope to see you there!

so whose going??

 

count me in, add me to the RX8 list

 

I'm free that Saturday. Add me also.

 

cool, I'll make it out to that, if you guys send me the details I'll add it to the texasrxs.org site and all the other places I frequent.

 

Might be able to make to down there for that.

 

alright...looks to be about five 8's now: ALWAZL8, DAZY, JENKINS, COOP....WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU GUYS DOING THIS DAY??

 

I'm not sure... I've got some work things going on that week, but I may be able to make it out for this. I'll have to check my calendar at work next week.

 

My first planned trip to Austin isn't till May 6. I will be recovering from hoiday spending

 

had a question, I posted this on the texasrxs site and had a few folks pm me and ask if they don't pay the 10 bucks can they still come out? my assumption is the 10$ is if you want to eat correct?

 

Just an FYI for DFW owners, this is the same day as our monthly meet.

 

Yes, the $10 is for the food. Anyone is welcome to stop by. I beliece that Mansfield Dam Park may charge an entrance fee, but that would be all you would need to pay.

 

Can't make it to Austin, but definatly mcaurthur.

 

I'm going to try to make it also. It would be great if the Austin 8s can meet up and drive there together. Park entrance fee is $8/car.

 

I'm down, there's a Rudy's right before 2222 on 620 we could meet at and several other places as well

 

I'm in also. Just tell me where to meet.

 

Should be able to make it if someone could send me some directions that would be great.

 

If you check out this post on Mazda6Club, there's a map and a photo of the location. I'll also provide a Google Map link below:

I won't make it! Sorry all. Wish I saw this thread earlier. I will be hitting the DFW meet that night. Maybe next time.

Have a good one!!

Looks like I am not going to be able to make it due to Mazdaparts taking forever and a F'ing day to ship my front bumper, ordered it on Dec 22nd they billed me for it the 26th and did not ship it until the 29th finally showed up January 3rd. Its going into paint this weekend so hopefully it will be dry enough to install this Sunday. I was looking forward to making it down for this and partying with some friends in San Marcos that weekend.

I'm in on the BBQ, already made my payment.

So are we going to do the meeting spot before heading down there?

 

I'll make the decision if no one objects. How about we meet at Rudy's on 2222/620 area at 12:30. I'm going to eat there instead (to forgo the crowd). We can head out around 1pm since it's not too far from there.

Don't forget to bring $8 for the park entrance.

 

dang, beat me to it lol That sounds great, I'll throw it up on the texasrxs site as well.
