Sam, Mike?

And Tim heres the details taken directly from the event page.


Come bring out your Mazda to meet and cruise with all of us.

Heres the plan. We will be meeting at Shop N Save around 11am for people that still need to get stuff to BBQ or Drink this would be the time to do it. Around 11:30 we will be leaving from the parking lot and cruising along the River Road towards Pere Marquette. Its a very easy drive and we should all be able to stay together. If not im sure theres a quite a few people in the group that know the way there.

We should be arriving at the
park around 12. Im going to reserve a pavillion so that we for sure have a place to set up. There are BBQ pits there and we will have charchol. Feel free to bring whatever you like to make. It will probably be easiest if people just figure out what to bring amongst smaller groups themselves. Either way im sure there will be plenty to eat.

Across from the pavillion area there is the Pere Marquette state park and there is a really awesome road. Hills and Turns and fast straight aways. I suggest everyone go out and drive it. It is an awesome road. But please be safe as there are sometime pedestrians walking and other cars on this road too.

Everyone can stay as late as they want but like all events please clean up after yourselves and if you feel the need to do anything crazy in the car please do it away from the pavillion area so it doesnt ruin it for everyone.

We can make this one of the best meets in the STL area for Mazda enthusiast if we try. Hope to see everyone there.


Timeline/Locations.
11am- Meet at Shop N Save 211 Mayfair Plaza Shopping Center
Florissant, MO 63033
11:30 Leaving to the park
12pm arrive at park and start cooking around 1

But before all that you and I need to go by Costco and get the stuff to grill. I am going to be buying it up front than im just having people give me 5 bucks or whatever really. We may get a couple sides there too. Some other people are bringing sides of their own also. Anyone can feel free to bing sides though if they want to.

Tim you and I should meet at Costco around 9:45am if that works for you.

I really need to spread myself beyond only using this forum to keep up with everything. 9:45 works for me. Do you have a Costco membership or do you need to use mine from Sam's? If so, the one at Manchester and 270 might be ideal. Here's hoping for nice weather.

Sounds good. I was at Sam's this morning and 3 pounds of brats was $10. I think a big box of the pre-made burgers is 10 or 15. I'm guessing pricing is similar so $50 should get us plenty of meat, buns, and chips.

Also, I saw a pretty blue 8 with RPF1s yesterday at 141 and 30. You know who you are. I saw you and cannot unsee you all up on my turf.

Pricing looked to be around 50 for all the meat and probably another 10 or 15 for buns.

Sounds like AJ's car but I think he is out in Columbia right now.

I thought I recognized it from the pics on here. Figured not too many cars locally fitting that description.

The Costco on Lindbergh?

I should have my new foglight in by then, and I will be sure to give it a good polish. It any of you guys are around downtown anytime let me know. It's a short jot from SLU over there.

My Tuesdays are open for now but in a month my classes change to Tuesday and Wednesday nights. This graduate degree program only having 4 hour night classes is irritating me to no end. No one is around during the day and I feel like some strange breed of vampire.
