cool, can't wait.

ima stay on the page and keep refreshing until i get to see the info..hahahaha

No joke... I've been doing this every five minutes!

Give me a couple hours. Lol. I just got off work and will be posting some official info as soon as I get to a computer. Still working out some date/time details, but I do have info about the charity and our goals.

What's up, guys! Been a BRZ owner since June, but first time posting. Never been out to an 86 meet, but I'd love to join you guys in the toy drive given it's a weekend.

ey finch what date did you guys choose? and what month?

Updated meet info on OP! This is the East Bay meet.Hope to have info on a valley meet soon.

Bummer. I have a wedding that day. If someone can meet up with me before they head to Dublin or something, I'll have some stuff to donate!

Sweet, will definitely try to make it, or at least drop off some toys. Nice Automoblox pic BTW, I love those things and actually donated a few last x-mas. Will definitely try to get some for this one.

I'll definitely make it one way or another. I'll probably have to come straight from work but no biggie :)

Kool ill b there

I can more easily make the Friday Dublin meet vs. a Saturday Stockton meet the following week. If I can, I'll hit-up both, but it really depends on if I can get someone to fill in for me on that Saturday.

I have a couple of things to give, but I cannot get there by 7 PM, I'm in the southbay and friday's are horrible with traffic.

We are there til at least 10, it just starts at 7. People roll in at all different times so come on through still:thumbup:

Sounds awesome. I'll come out with a few things for the kids.

where are u at? I might be able to meet up with you and get those stuff before I head there. :)

agreed. shall we do another South Bay caravan starting out at 7:30-8PM? :D

Sweetness! I'm so excited this is happening!

Thanks @finch1750 for taking the reins!

I'm in San Bruno. But I can meet anywhere from San Bruno to downtown SF!

im in south bay but my brother and cousin both in the city, one go to Mercy HS by SFSU and one go to AAU by the caltrain station. let me know what location works better for you and I'll ping you the address. Those two both plan to come down to san jose to see me this weekend.

send me a message!

Teamwork for the kids. Love it. :thumbup:

I'm there

Gah I'm out of town this weekend and I'm busy with work on the weekedays. The only day I'm free is starting next Friday...

i might have some work in the city one day of this week and one day next week... ping me ur work address & number and we'll work something out

thanks :-)

quick bump for this, the toy drive is this Friday! Please go and buy some toys this week for a good cause!

I did something simular well because racecar!

I better go buy some toys tomorrow for Friday.

Bump for this Friday. Official flyer now posted in OP for the second meet in Stockton on November 23.

Hi Finch,

Isn't it the date @86_ZN6 plans for the fundraising in Sonoma?

:P

It is, but I had this date set for a couple weeks. I was posting in the sac and central valley threads to get a time locked down is the only reason the flyer is just coming out. Its a bit late to try and find another date that works for both members and our sponsor Metro Pizza, so unfortunately there will be a conflict.

Jr has not posted a time yet, so maybe that will work so people can still attend both if they wanted to.

Hey guys,

I know the wishlist says PS2 games, but I have a lot of Xbox 360 / Kinect games (appropriate for kids like Viva Pinata and Kinect Joy Ride) from when I was a Microsoft Rep. I'm sure the kids would appreciate them more than my closet, are these ok to bring?

Edit: Just to be clear I was supposed to give these away for free, but no one in College wanted them (for obvious reasons).

Im sure they can still give them out. Its just that they have PS2s in the room. How many do you have roughly?

I PM'd you.

If you and @BRZChix haven't met up yet for the toys, I can meet up with you before I head out to the dublin toy drive meet since I'm super close to you in the Daly City/SSF area. PM me if needed :D

@finch1750 How late are you guys planning on being there? I may not be able to stop by. Unfortunately I also have something going on the day of the Stockton toy drive. Maybe I can drop off my toys in Stockton sometime over the weekend?

I'll be in Dublin tonight... with CAR TOYS ONLY!! Gotta start em young!!!
