Port of Oakland meet and greet? 7/20?
Hey guys,
I haven't been to many meets (just 1 actually), but was thinking of having one at the port of oakland (where the street races are). There's a nice park with usually plenty of parking, bbq's, and a beautiful view of the city and the bay bridge. I was thinking of a bbq/potluck kind of thing, meet and greet members, etc. for July 20th (Saturday). Just wanted to throw it out there incase anyone is interested. If not, I'll just have to try to get to another meet soon after/before. Here's the website for the park (Middle Harbor Shoreline Park): http://www.portofoakland.com/communit/serv_midd.asp edit: So, port of Oakland ( ^ link). This Saturday, July 20th, about 10_30-11am meet up, and we'll start BBQ'ing about 11:30ish? Thanks guys Quote:

definitely interested and the date is open for me ... maybe we can even do a short East Bay drive in the morning before arriving there for a BBQ/picnic? I might have time to go scope out the place this week if no one else does.

No, although I should have took some when I was there this weekend. I'll try to go there tonight before dark and snap some shots (if I make it home on time, stupid bart strike). But there is TON's of space, and a crap load of bbq pits/picnic tables, and lots of parking. On top of that, it's really really nice (look's new'ish). This past Sunday there was a muscle car meet there that looked fun. And as long as there's under 200 of us, no need to reserve, just first come first serve basis. When I went this past weekend, there wasn't many people at all, then again it was during the pride weekend, so that might have made it kinda dead. but it's a dope spot, great view, and right on the water.
Also, lot's of cool urban art/street art on the way there. Edit: did a google search for pics of the park: The pics just about sums it up. Very nice little spot. http://www.google.com/search?q=Middl...M6r-iwLy6IGYBQ |

Sounds like fun, although I won't be able to make it on the proposed date, the area is nice, been to a couple of concerts out there, great view of the bay (plus Alameda is just right across!). I'm a little iffy about the parking though, if I remember correctly, the parking lot is not very big and if you do it on a night weekend, our group may have to contend with all the other locals.

too short notice to have a formal big one... no time to round up sponsors and vendors etc. by the date that OP proposed. So I'd say let's just do an informal kind of meet and chill thing, and if it turns out to be a good spot we can always return to it for a bigger one.

a big formal meet would be nice, but yeah it is too late of a notice for that. Something small so we can get together, hang out, throw a football around and eat some food and meet members and talk cars. Nothing too big. But, a big formal meet there would be pretty epic.
