Crusing the DFW...its Official (Old DFW Meet Thread), Going again DEC 28 and JAN 3....come one Fort Worthers Options

[Spider77]

Alright, so in a suggestion Im starting a new DFW Meet thread. Since Matt is no longer an active member (and Brady sold his Celica almost as soon as he got it), it left our meets in a kind of limbo. So I'm going to do my best to get some things going on here. Like I stated in the previous DFW thread I would like to get at least 3-4 good meets throughout the year. But I cant do it without your help. What I figured Id do is a ways before the meets, throw out some ideas, we'll decide together on what we want to do and do it! I also want to spread the meets around our area. We have a lot of room to work with, so lets take advantage of that.
In the next few days keep an eye out on this new thread for information. As far as the next meet I was thinking about setting it for March 6 weekend (first one in March). I'll update this thing here in a few days, also going to try to import some of the old pics over and whatnot.
Till then!

Oh, one more thing...id like to keep this thread as free from clutter as possible. I know im just as bad as the next guy, so im going to keep it down on my part as well.

Alright, checked out two places today.
First was Bob McFarland park (410 Embercrest Drive). It has a pavilion with two tables and a grill. And on the outlying area there are more benches and grills. What I like most about this park is the location of the parking lot, its about 20-30 feet from the pavilion. Not a huge space overall, but should fit all of us nicely.



Second was Gene Schrickel, Jr Park (4500 Park Springs Boulevard). It was alot more open then the first one, a larger lot that is a bit further from the pavilion, but felt more updated. Again, had more benches and grills in the outlying area. The best thing about this one is the location to 20. Its right off of it.


Both spots offer plenty of shade from the June heat, and should provide enough space for all of us. As it stands now there are now reservations being taken, its on first come first serve. But I can guess that during the summer (ish) it'll have to be reserved. So, get back with me on what you guys want to do. Or if you want to throw in ideas about where to have our next meet at. Please keep in mind Im trying to keep it somewhere close to Arlington (as its pretty much in the middle). Or if you guys want to do a meet and then cruise somewhere, that'll be good too. Just let me know soon.
