Sorry for the lack of details. I have been reading the forums for a few weeks, but have not been registered. I saw the possibility of meeting in our area, and I thought I better sign up.

TLinKC,

Thanks for the heads up from the TL-S board.

A meet sounds interesting (although I don't know how many of you are interested in hanging with an old bald guy) but here's my current problem. Right now, I could drive (1) my wife's '00 Civic; or (2) my '90 Maxima SE. By the end of August, however (if not sooner), I will be sportin' an '02 TL-S. Sooo ... how's September?

Andy,

What about you coming to KC since we have several people in the KC area that we could probably get hooked up? We haven't heard from Joe or Steve yet but I would imagine if it worked for their schedule that they would show.

Hi RedHotTL & TLinKC
Was in Arkon for 8 weeks and didn't check posting. I'm back in KC and I'm in. Check with Slavic if he's interested.

I am not available last week of June. Going to the Ozarks.

Cool

Let set Saturday July 28, 2001 around mid afternoon. Sonics drive-in or something. I won't go to Applebee's. I respect TLinKC. We should meet at Sonics. TLinKC, you invite the CL and CLtypeS folks, I'll call Slavic, and a few friends who drives TLs in Olathe (Kansas City Suburb). RedHotTL, its your turn to drive down here. We'll trade gutterguard grill stories.

Amenning welcome to the board. Are you coming?

Hey Guys-

I'm in Iowa. I like to meet you guys and see if you can be of assistance to a lady who wants to see if there are any good parts for my car that I've missed. I have a black 96 Acura 2.5 TL. So far, I have 18' rims, clear lights, and the springs. Not much. I'm just getting what I can at this time.

Well, about meeting up in KC. That sounds great. I'm not sure where you are meeting and when, but fill me w/the details. I'll keep checking back. Thanks!

I can make this too. There are a few other CL owners in KC that I'm sure would like to hook up. Sounds like fun.

Is there room for your CL brothers?

How about Saturday, June 30th at 1:00 pm? That will allow the folks from Omaha, Iowa, St. Louis plenty of time to drive over that morning.

I have PM or emailed everyone in the memberlist I could find in Omaha, Iowa, St Louis, or KC metro area. Hopefully we will get a great turnout!

2001TL4KCdude,

I don't think the Sonic is big enough if we have a good turn out. Is there someplace else we could meet that has a bigger parking lot? What about a school or mall? I was even thinking of the old Levitz parking lot. Suggestions?

How about right near Superior Acura. Just one block north on the access road is a JC Penney home store or discount store, something like that. Nice big parking lot, never gets full. You can see it from I35. Someone can invite the Acura folks over.

Ken, sounds like a good idea. Can you contact Superior? Maybe they will bring over some "goodies" for us? (e.g. key chains, mugs, etc)

OK that's one vote for 30th. I've contacted my salesman at Superior Acura to ask for their sponsorship at the event.

Sorry I have been unavailable lately. I've been on the road, right now in Columbus Ohio. I'm driving back from the Park Ave Acura meet in NJ.

I know our Midwest meet won't be as huge (over 100 at Park) but nice nonetheless. If we get a dozen, that would be great.

I vote for the 30th also. As far as dealership sponsorship, after seeing Park Ave, not sure what Superior (or anyone else) will be able to do.

At Park Avenue Acura (just some ideas) I remember:

1.Name tags
2.Prizes
3.Food
4.It appears all the dealership employees were there.
5.We had the meet on their premises so we had places to go beside around our cars.
6.T-shirts, hats
7.Streeteffectz, dent wizard, etc.
8.etc.

I'm not sure what part of this we might expect from Superior, I suggest we just let them (and perhaps Jay Wolfe) know that we are going to be meeting....

Anyway, as far as location, that's depends on the the number of participants. A lot of folks will attract attention. Whether it's a Park or Mall parking lot or wherever, we should decide if we haven't already.

My input: I'm pretty sure the Leawood Police will pay us a visit at Town Center. If we can handle that, that parking lot would be great; better than the JCPenney Outlet lot. At Town Center Mall, are we talking about the SE corner near Dean/Deluca? A public park would be nice, I had intended to drive around town for a few days and talk to my friends and learn of a nice, accessible, quiet, and clean location.

Finally, 1pm is ok, but Park started at 9am and it was well after 3pm before anyone knew it. If we start at 1pm, we should choose an ending time so that we can know when to "say our goodbyes".

Looking forward to it. Oh, by the way, at Park Avenue, I believe the TLs outnumbered the CLs slightly (if you count the Legends).

The Aircraft is avaible is people want their cars photographed with it. Also, the downtown airport has a good sized parking lot, and it is usually pretty empty on the weekends if you wanted to meet there, but not too much to do dowqn there. Also, the stadium parking lots is huge, but you wil have to check for a game, ect.......Good luck

Where in the HECK did the date of 23rd come up? Anyway this is my suggestion...

1. Stick with the 30th since that is what has been publicized for a couple of weeks now.

2. 1:00 pm to start and then anyone that is interested can go to the downtown airport around 6:00 to have their TL picture with a jet and the KC skyline in the background. We would end after that.

3. Town Center works for me but if somebody could find a park I think that could be great as well. What about Shawnee Mission park?

4. Superior -- Daverman, can you continue to follow up with Superior? It would be great if they would show.

5. Food? Do we want to have everybody bring something or would you guys like to just hit a restaurant sometime?

Comments?

Can you tell I'm tired since I'm being forceful and direct? Sorry.

OK guys from the other forums and topics, here's where the conversation continues.

OK. Post your preferences on the following:
[list=1][*]Date. It's either June 23rd or June 30th. Pick one.[*]Time. I think it was 1pm last time I checked.[*]Location. A park? A mall parking lot? Kansas? Missouri?[*]Sponsorship. Does anyone know if a dealer will sponsor the event?[/list=a]

My preferences:
1. June 23rd.
2. 1pm.
3. Town Center Plaza parking lot, KS.
4. I wonder if Superior Acura will sponsor it.

I agree with Daverman. I prefer the 23rd @1:00 at the parking lot, from there who knows, and see if we can get Superior Acura for sponsorship, if any in KC can be able to contact them. So, how about it?
