Not to be pushy but any ideas on the annual DC.com Charger meet?

[bull]

I was just thinking about the DC.com meet, formerly known as the D-C.com meet. Is it too early to start talking about this? I know Mark (triple green) has organized it in the past, to which we are eternally grateful, so I just wondered if that is going to be the MO this year too? I didn't get to go last summer so I'm planning on eating twice as much, meeting twice as many people and taking twice as many pictures this summer. So shoot me, I'm really looking forward to it.

Location?.. 
gas prices are creepin up ya' know?..

if is close I will go.

I was just thinking about this the last week  or so. I would be happy to let someone else do it.   We can also plan an alternate site if you want. The church is easy for me and we have all of the ammenities available. I do remember the wedding conflict though, so it is not perfect.

We need to plan a date soon. Last year I waited too long and we ended up with lot of people not being able to come.

Also it has worked out "weatherwise" better to have it in late July or August. Another option is to have it on the Saturday before the Sunbust show in Graham. That way people coming from farther a way can get a "two-fer" weekend.

I am open to any and all suggestions.

If it's closer this year I will come. Maybe somewhere in the central US. Maybe I can talk onne of you guys into buying a pool part. That way I make it deductible.

[Brock Samson]

 oh yeah, sure "The Church"...

moparmadness has a resto shop in KY. I have no idea what kinda parking he has but it is  a central location, or combine it with Monster mopar in September in IL.  That way I would not have to travel at all

 Might need to organize more than one meet . As the one previuosly mentioned has been in WA state since the previous boards inception.
  And I've proudly been to each one 

[triple_green]

OK Strat,

You host it and we'll come up from WA and OR

How bout the Saturday before the Seattle Chapter mopars unlimited show? May 6th.
That way we all get a two fer and it's in closer proximity to each show.
Plus you all get another bonus. The Seattle chapter mopar unlimited club are having a cruise in dinner Saturday night at the XXX. So we'd all actually get a three fer if we did it that weekend.

I'm going to be in Issaqua all weekend to attend The Seattle chapter stuff and would have no problem doing a charger.com show the day before.

Another cool fact is that the Seattle chapter show is going to be specifically honoring the Charger this year and will have a specific area for all us charger owners to hang out together.

Whats ya all say? Can you get the church May 6th Mark?

[triple_green]

We gave up on May because the weather is too unpredictable.

I will still do it if we all are in for that time period.

Kentucky sounds good to me.

Not that some of you Seattle guys care...I don't want to drive round trip in the rain again.  The Round Up gig sounds great and all but unless you have a trailer, who wants to drive in the rain.  I've done my share of it as well.  After last time, I said never again.   Every year since it went to Remlinger, it's rained.
I ended up coming that one year by myself because all the Portland boyz wussed out due to it.  If you want a turnout and not a Seattle car show only, sandwich it with a summer show. 

Regardless, I have goodies for you Mark.   I mentioned trailer, shouldn't be long now before Paul says something.


strat, you said something about wanting to move to Vancouver.  Fly up and you can ride with me, we live less than 10 minutes from the airport in Vancouver.  You're sleeping in your own room tho, that is unless you want to bunk up with me.

just offering another option. I know I will be attending the Seattle mopars unlimited show...regardless.
We should think about putting a poll together to see what the best options may be and decide from that.
Anyone?

Unfortunately, I'm East Coast (Virginia) and driving to Washington state is a tad out of my range 
How many would be willing to come this way?   Ever heard of Woodstock? 

[472 R/T SE]

I just don't like that time of year, we turn our wipers on in Longview every time.  If you get under my car and wipe it down I won't worry about  it.

I'm sorry, I was talking about the NW meet. It seems we get into this every year. The original Charger meets that originated from the last website were in Washington because many of the members here lived in the Seattle area and Jesse came in from Spokane. Other guys were feeling left out (which is understandable) and some of them put together their own get-togethers. I think that is the way to go from now on because it's near impossible to get everyone together on one side of the country or the other, not to mention the members from other countries. Some of the big meets draw people from everywhere, like Wayne Wooten's Charger show, but our little show in Kent does not have that draw... yet. I would like to think it would someday because it seems like all the big ones are east of the Mississippi or California. I say we keep the one in Kent going and some other members in other regions do their own Charger shows too. I'm not trying to be exclusive, just practical.

[Silver R/T]

I like it at usual spot in Kent, WA

I am with Mike... lets have a get together during the summer sometime. The BCC Mopar meet here in
Seattle is on May 7th, and there allready is a get together planed for the 6th at the XXX. So that weekend
is kind of full plus we are still getting the show setup at BCC.

We could have the charger show the day before the Sunbust Mopar Meet. Did we try that last year??

I know several people that would like to stay the next day for the Sunbust in the summer, great show.

I will make it to whatever you guys won't to do, I have come every year

Mark already stated someone else could organize it. 

That's it, let's have a poll so we can tell Mark when we want to have our show.

Dave, YES, I used to stop in Woodstock to gas up the truck on my NY/NC trips! Got stuck in a Wendy's with 36 busloads of high school kids one afternoon. I guess they all stop there after touring the endless caverns or after ball games or something. Damn truck threw a belt the next exit down, too(different trip). Luckily found a shop that would work on it after dark and not for a lot of $$$ either. Nice folks down there. Living in central NC now, but a Woodstock Charger meet sounds good.

[Dave22443]

Thats a pretty Charger Steve.  I like it!

[rare69]

hey Seattle guys, please keep us posted on the charger show. would love to go. not to far from port Angeles, WA wont be showing the car but would like to meet some of the members and check out the rides.

[triple_green]

Would it be an advantage for you OR and BC guys to have it on the Sat before Graham Sunbust? Or is it a "don't really care"?

  Mike, Bull and others what do you think? I know two day weekends with shows can also be difficult.
But the Charger meet is not an all day affair, but I always wish it was longer
