UPDATED - 4036GC's "Snow & Shine", Lets try for October 10th, 2009... Options

[KAOS]

Hey Guys;

Just wanted to see if everyone and anyone in the 403 area (Central AB Canada) wanted to get together for a lil' pre-summer kick off meet n' greet.

Take some pics with some wicked snow covered mountains/celicas... lol.

Let me know if you're down or not and I'll start organizing a cruise/bbq (yes I will bbq in -40° if I have to) and try to find some decent photo-ops for a wicked photo shoot for us all.

Keep in mind this meet isn't exclusive; so if you have other peeps that just want to get out and join in, post up/invite them.

Sean; I'm looking forward to seeing your 5th Gen All-Trac at this, or if your GT-FOUR is in by then, by all means BRING IT TOO... lol.

Maybe we could have a meet later March or something?

You can count on me for being in for this! I will maybe have to find an extra driver and bring the GT-FOUR and the GT-S!

I can also bring some dogs and burgers!

Perfect; thats what I like to hear!

For those of you that are travelling a distance; you are more than welcome to crash at my place to save on the costs of hotel's etc...

Maybe if we could set aside a weekend or something...???

[Sinyk]

Would really depend in the weather in Roger's Pass for me to drive 600 kms out there, not to mention the softball team(s) I would be on at that time. I don't want to get shot for abandoning them! I'll have to see.

[ZenAutoworks]

Nice idea! Please count me in ....

If we make it early April, I will for sure have my ST205 sorted. Either way I will be there and will spread the word.

[6gsillyca]

I can try and show up, but I don't think I'll be able to bring the vert with me... If you guys don't mind a little honda flavor, I can do that.

[dark94gts]

sweet an alberta meet!! I just moved to edmonton this summer and didnt know there were any celica guys getting together around here. Im in for getting together for sure! Ill be bringing my 94 gts. when and where??

[ChrisD]

I'm always down, although only check this board rarely. Someone remind me when a date is set.

Early April could potentially bring the 165 and 205...

Chris, I didn't even know you were a member on here! Looks like you haven't posted in 4 years! Welcome back to the forum. I guess you will probably start lurking aroud here more when you get the ST205!

[Artega]

I'm interested.
probably not for the cruise part I'm still searching for my GT-Four.

Let me know

I hate you guys

[axelrduvirage]

finally a canadian meet ...

if it's Easter weekend, i can leave after work on thursday at noon. let's see.. drive for 52 hours (according to google maps)... add 6 pit stops @ 20minutes each... factor in the return trip...back to work at 5a.m. tuesday... that leaves me roughly 6 hours for the party, the photoshoot, throw in a shower, nap for an hour or so....


I'M SO IN !!!!!!!!


seriuosly, hope you guys get this going and take lots of pics with the Canadian Rockies in the BG...gonna be sweet.

[Sinyk]

Maybe we can get more than 5 cars this time!!!

(I'm still deciding if I will have time to do it as we are getting into our busiest time of year)

I talked to Sean last night and my white ST205 arrived in Calgary yesterday! This weekend I will be helping him out with the compliance items and then hopefully get it licensed and on the road (that is if the weather improves this weekend like it is supposed to!).

[Artega]

That's awesome Walker!
I can't wait to see it

Yeah
I won't be around in May
Any other time I should be fine

Hrm... might be time to change that signature.

[WALKER]

Now that I have the GT-FOUR I don't plan on doing a snow and shine meet. This baby isn't going to have snow touch it anytime soon. If we actually get a nice sunny day with some dry roads I will bring her out!

Should we try for something in the end of April or do we want to shoot for May?

I'd like to wait until its nice and Sean, Chris and yourself can bring the toys out to play...

After this weekend I was going to say it's time to play!


but now it's snowing again! Looks like it will have to be in May! Should we tentatively shoot for Saturday, May 2nd? The 14 day trend says close to +20C and sunny.

Ok, Amber & I have talked things over, and I know its a little short notice, but we'd like to get everyone together for a lil' BBQ out here at our place.

We can start the meet maybe some time around NOON in Calgary, then we can cruise out towards Banff and get some decent group shots by the mountains or something; then take the back roads back to our place in Airdrie for a decent BBQ and a wind-up.

I dunno, lets shoot some ideas! Everyone should bring their significant others if they can...

PS - We are planning this for MAY 2nd if this works with ppls... POST UP!

Well I am in for whatever comes up. It may be a 2 car cruise or just a garage day!

[KAOS]

My Vote: GARAGE DAY!!

Yaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyy.

[Artega]

Alright back from the dead

Who's up for a meet before the snow falls?

I am totally down. We need to figure out a time that works best for everyone...

Weekend(s) are definately a no brainer, a lot of us work during the weekdays.

Ideas guys?

[Artega]

How about Sat Oct. 10?
I could make time so any time should be fine with me.

There's quite a few 6th gen owners from Calgary now.
It would be nice to meet everyone.

October 10th should work! I may not be able to stay out too late that day - but if we did something in the morning/afternoon, that would be cool.

[WALKER]

Ya I would like to get one more meet in before the winter hits and I put the GT-FOUR to bed.

[KAOS]

Hopefully everyone is aware that the Oct 10 weekend is Thanksgiving... I wasn't until WALKER reminded me. :S Might be hard to toss something together if PPL are out of town.

[Artega]

I'm up for a cruise or something in the morning/afternoon

I'll be here for the long weekend.

[KAOS]

Looks like its going to be CRAP all week long for weather; could make for some ****ty pics.

I'm still down regardless... SPREAD THE WORD!!

[Artega]

So is this going to be a morning/afternoon cruise?

got any prefered routes?

[WALKER]

I am thinking we meet at 11am (somewhere central) and get to know each other. Maybe go for a little drive somewhere and grab a quick lunch and then go for a cruise in the early afternoon.

Just wanted to let you guys know there is a car meet being planned by the MR2 guys on Beyond.ca for Sunday as well. Meeting at 2pm at Deerfoot Mall.

Looks like it will be a cruise weekend.

[black13]

hey guys i'm definitely down for this, for sure this time.

[ChrisD]

Sorry guys, I'm out of town this weekend for Thanksgiving.

[WALKER]

Sorry guys, I'm out of town this weekend for Thanksgiving.

Hey I didn't even know if you were back from your trip. There will be other meets!

[KAOS]

How was the adventure over the pond?

[ChrisD]

Hehe, yep we just got back Friday afternoon. It was a great trip! Backpacked from Spain to Greece in +30's and now home to this... haha.

I know its a shock to the system.

We just came back from Mexico and then it started to get cold. :\

So whats happening this weekend? Anyone have a gameplan? If not, I think Walker and I will get together tomorrow and figure something out for Saturday, so keep your eyes on the board.

[Artega]

sounds great

I've invited some people on beyond but they're busy.

It'll be great to finally meet you guys

[WALKER]

I think we should postpone the meet. The weather is too cold for me to be standing around admiring cars.

[Artega]

that's alright with me

The weather really isn't looking so good right now
next week looks a little warmer

Walker, are you still going to Toyota meet on Sunday?

[black13]

Yea I think we should make it next week or so. way too cold this weekend.

[KAOS]

Thats unfortunate that the cold dropped on us so fast like that.

I'd be down for something next week provided the weather smartens up.

[WALKER]

Walker, are you still going to Toyota meet on Sunday?

We will see how much I get done on the car tomorrow and how the weather is. I would like to make it out for a little bit anyways on Sunday if the MR2 guys haven't garaged the cars yet.
