South Florida Meet. Palm Beach.

Alright guys! I have been talking to various members on here and we have decided to plan a Acurazine meet.
At this time there is no exact date...I have pm'd a few of you South Florida guys to raise a little interest...Think about a date that would work for you individually towards the end of Feb. and we can go from there.

Location: South County Regional Park. Palm Beach County.
Date: To be announced.

This particular park has miles of twisting roads and a ton of locations within, which would make for amazing photo shoots...(Loading Docks, Lakes, open fields, a ton of trees, parking lots, and way more)

As of now here is the list of people who are "in"

1. ANC297
2. SYLKIE
3. bzyrice
4.
5.
6.
7.
8.
9.
10.

As of right now it's an Acurazine meet only, but we'll see how it goes.

Haha. Maybe you guys could get a drive together. We're hoping to have at least 10-12 Aziners come out, so..

And yeah Kowloon...We're aiming for late February, so what date would work for you? Either a Saturday or a Sunday would be pretty much the only option. I'm trying to get everybody to say what day would be best and we can all vote on it or something.

Guys, don;t forget to add your names to the list if your in.

Well, I'll most likely be down during the weekend of Valentine's day. It's Chinese New Year, so have to have dinner with the parents. But that is sort of mid Feb. I guess last weekend of Feb and it probably will have to be a Saturday for me since I need to drive back up Sunday.

Yeah, I too would prefer a Saturday....What do you guys think of Saturday February 27th?...The park itself is in west Boca Raton, not even West Palm.

Maybe like 11-3pm or so...not too long, not too short...can get up there and back really easily. As far as food, let's see how many people chime in etc...Might be easier to meet, take some pics and talk crap and then drive to a subway or something. Unless it's a big group in which case we could bbq at the park and take donations. We should all share the burden, I've heard some horror stories about coordinators of other meets swallowing having to pay for deposits or food on their own.

Also...anyone considering going with DSLR skills? Maybe even some HDR experience? I'm dying to get some shots of that, or even to learn how to do it.

Yeah, I agree...A few hours should be good...If you are in, we have 5 confirmed, and waiting on more...As you can see, Silva, DC, Trew might be in and I am waiting to hear back from a lot more...
As far as food goes, again I agree...We should all chip in or eat afterward. As of now its me and SYLKIE who are organizing, and by all means if you wanna help out...

And yeah...I somebody can take some nice pics.

I have an SLR but im definitely not a professional. I know the basics of HDR but I kind of overdo it so I've backed off of HDR for now. Ill definitely take pictures for the meet. As for food, I think its better that we just go to a restaurant together. I mean there's a Fridays nearby or Ale House.

Those HDR shots..even if considered overdone are very nice! I'd be proud to have any of those shots taken of my car!

I know the site has kinda been set...but have you thought about maybe somewhere in between boca and down south? so more people show up? Maybe quiet waters or somewhere that's 20 min. north for us and 20 south for you all?

Just an idea...
and yeah...meet, talk crap...take pics...a beer and some food would be good stuff. and of course talk more crap and share ideas and opinions.

Spread the word to fellow Acura owners.
We're kinda set on this park due to its scenery for pics...There is more than just parking lots...

^^^is that you obliging?

I'm down for that park, was just a suggestion. I'll PM Heatseeker to see if he'd come.

Please...if you got the DSLR/HDR skills...bring it! No pressure and of course no expectations..you feel like shooting, shoot. If you do a cool one of my car...there's a beer in it for you!
