Would anyone else be interested in putting their Element in the Fun Fest parade July 10th. There is a nominal fee of $10 to enter, which I'll take care of. There are usually a couple of other car groups represented and thought it would be cool for us to be there as well. the parade starts @ 6:30 p.m. but staging will start earlier as this is usually a very large parade lasting over 3 hours sometimes. Live music will follow downtown as the theme for the opening day of Fun Fest is Mardi Gras. (Cajun/Zydeco style music) funfest.net will have more info for anyone interested. Let me know what your thoughts are.

Hey if nothing else, maybe we can all pick somewhere local and have a mini meet and eat. Just let me know.

Thanks

im up for either i like to eat and i like the E so im up for anything

 

[RElementW]

We are going on a family camping trip so I will not be able to go either. Maybe we can try again sometime at a different parade

 

[07kiwitoaster]

your wife didnt want you hanging out with other toasta people besides me

 

[jkiz4]

A mini meet-n-eat sounds good!

Perks>>a mini meet -n-eat?

 

[Frazier]

It was just an idea to see if anyone would be interested in doing something locally. I've been able to attend several meet and eats out of town as well as a few of the drives. If you haven't had the chance, please give one a try, the folks you'll meet are awesome. Last year I was able to met up with Ron(ronEboy), his wife Donna and Benny(bh241) for a mini caravan to the Nationals and had an awesome time.

Anyway, due to a job change my Saturdays are usually tied up now until 2 or 4pm, so its hard to make it over to the Carolinas for lunch. I've seen several people on here from the Tri-Cities and wandered if there would be any interest in doing one a little closer to home, maybe not a lunch but an early dinner or mini drive whatever sounds good. Let me know what you think and this would not just be a Tri-Cites thing, everyone would be welcome.

Sorry for the long post.

Anyone....

 

[07kiwitoaster]

hey i think its a great idea we could even do like a mini weekend thing i went camping a couple weeks ago and was thinking how cool that would be to do at like warriors or some place like that

 

[Frazier]

That would be neat. I had looked at trying Warriors earlier in the Spring or the camp sites at Natural Tunnel.

Natural Tunnel....is that near Shady Valley?

Its just down past Gate City, VA. Just a few minutes outside of Kingsport, TN.

 

[2009 ELE]

Cool! I think I know where that is! If you guys do something, post it and we will see if we can make it.

 

[07kiwitoaster]

i like both locations but have only stayed at warriors

 

[Frazier]

Same for me, the last time I drove through Natural Tunnel it looked really clean.
