Arrow NYRA Meet 2: Flushing-Meadow/Corona Park 5/10/2008 at 1:00PM

DATE: Sunday, May 10th, 2008

The second meet will be held in New York City at the Flushing-Meadows/Corona Park at 1:00PM.

This is a different set up than the Valley Stream Meet since there is no entrance fee. We park the cars in the parking lot adjacent to the Grand Central Parkway around the man-made lake called "Meadows-Lake". We could park in the lot and go into the park but from history we never leave the parking lot. We BBQ right there.

Directions to the meets are posted on the NYRA site. The directions page has images from all directions possible, depicting every possible entrance to the park. Here is the direct link http://nyrotary.com/Pages/directions.htm

Just as a reminder the meet schedule is posted and available for download in PDF from the website as well. http://nyrotary.com/Multimedia/Racin...t_Schedule.pdf

Lets get a list ready along with a food list. If someone would like to take the reigns on the food list that would be very helpful.

1. Jason, FC
2.
3.
4.
5.

i will be bringing my grill to BBQ, but its a small *** grill so if you want to BBQ and you have a grill please bring it. 70 ppl waiting in line to use a lil 8 burger grill kinda sucks.

Its hard to organize a food list with 2 forums and different ppl. Last year ppl that said were coming with food never came and we had BURGERs and no BREAD. So i will be bringing a grill, charcoal, liter Fluid (lol). We have to sort out the rest.

The people that have been coming to meets normally come with the same people to every meet. If we organize with one another on what to bring we can have numerous grills cooking up a storm. If not we can TRY and create a master food list. If everyone participates we dont need to spend more than $10 per person (maybe even less). If you chip in to the POTLUCK then you can eat/drink and share in what the group has brought.

What do you guys think is the best approach. ??????

A. Everyone that brings something gets a wrist band and is allowed to eat/drink (POTLUCK)
B. Each group takes care of their BBQ situation.

Lets bounce some ideas, cuz im trying to curb the issues that happen in the past. People that come on the fly wind up eating more than the people that brought stuff and sometimes get shafted when they contributed.

hmm Saturday hmm it should be fine.

Father/Mother's day does not affect me, cuz we just having dinner at night so it doesnt really matter.

I have a small grill that I can bring I think, dont even remember where the hell did it go. then I can bring some food as well.

What if it rains btw ? Cant grill anything if it rains

^^ um when i originally wrote it was set for sunday until i found out it was mothers day. I base my schedule around the racing schedule for Drag Racing/Road Racing locally. And may is my special exception since the 3rd week in may i have finals and the last weekend is limerock. So im limited to first week in May and second week in May. Since we just had the meet on April 17 at VS, May 4th is kind of early.

Im open to discussion about the date, we can do it a day earlier May 10th or do it the first weekend in may.
