I think since I have a LONG drive to get to y'all, I'll bring chips, and buns. Just let me know if we want dogs and/or burgers, and how many.

If Honda's are invited I'd like to come...

Actually, there have been ideas tossed around for a Honda meet on July 6th. Mind if we join you guys?

Everyone is welcome. Same as last time, it should be a meet of many fine cars, not jut TL's or Acuras....Badger came with a very nice BMW and was very welcome and didn't feel out of place, I couldn't imagine Acura's older sister, Honda not to be welcome. So yes, please do come and invite everyone else. Evo's, STi's, Skylines?...

i dont remember there being anything there as far as a grill.


for all I care we can use a foreman.

somebody take charge though so we are all on the same page. I'm just too busy to do this between my new job and best man duties right now.

I'll also bring my TopSpeed mufflers that are back for sale.

We need some of you locals to organize this. I can't do it being so far away and having never been there.

if you are coming from the south (from downtown or I-90) then you'll just take the Edens North and exit on Willow Road and immediately turn left at the 1st street (Cherry).

If you are coming from the North Take 94 to 294. Then take the Chicago exit on left to I-94. Then you'll merge into I-94 and pass Dundee Road right away, get to the right lane and you will need to exit on Tower Road. At Tower, turn left at the exit stop light onto the Frontage Rd, you'll pass a BMW and Jeep dealership, then the road curves right and turns into Central, passing a bank. The stop light ahead is Willow Road so turn Left on Willow, go over the highway and then make a left right after the bridge on Cherry St.

don't get too excited about the bbq part... nobody wants to follow through on it except SRB's offer to buy a grille.


SOMEBODY TAKE CHARGE!

Yes, its still 2PM. I am not sure if I should buy the grill because it seems that Badger and I are the only people talking about grilling. I am willing to take charge of the organization of it, however I can't do it by myself. I need someone to come forward and say they will get buns, or soda, or meat or hot dogs. I'm buying the grill which is around $25 so I think that is enough from my side. Or we can scratch the idea of grilling and everyone bring something small...12-pack of soda, chips, whatever. If no one comes forward by Monday for other stuff, then I won't bother buying the grill.

C'mon everyone-it's not that hard. Remember I'm coming from Detroit. Just too bad I'm on stock wheels, next year is a different story! Will it be a new set of RJ's, or Volks or a new Axis wheel?

hey for anyone bringing beverages... please get small cans and mix it up a little... some of us don't do coke/pepsi so maybe bring some Mt Dew or Sunkist or something.

So far we have:

Grille
Hot dogs
Buns
Chips
Napkins
Condiments
Soda/Pop


We still need:

1 person to bring a cooler WITH ice.
1 person to bring some burger patties.
1 person to bring charcoal and lighter fluid.


I might have left out something...

^ Burgers, hot dogs, italian beefs, delicious chocolate cake... some have a Barnellis in them so then you can add pasta, salads and sandwiches to the mix.

Heres their menu, if you want the exact items.

Not sure if I'll be able to make it but we'll see.

I also say we scratch grilling and just go to portillos and everyone get what they like instead of all of us eating the same thing and always one of us being tied to the grill and not being able to enjoy time there with cars. I totally agree we go to portillos!

NICE

so should we meet then cruise to 'tillos in Skokie near Old Orchard or do we want someone to go and pick it all up after getting cash from everyone and bring it back?
I kinda don't like the thought of someone coming to the meet then leaving and not being there for a good 30 min.

Regardless of what we do with food, I'd REALLY like to take a drive down sheridan with everyone in the ravines. We did this last time at this location and it was a fuckin BLAST!
