Directions from the East:

We will be meeting up at the Walmart in Airway Heights, WA at 7:15AM!

[erik]

It's looking more and more like the Chelan area would work the best. Depending on the amount of people able to make it. I know I will be out of school around early May, so anytime after that would work.

[jon]

i think chelan would be the best. its a beautiful area..the drive there is nice from the east and west.

i think early june would be best. its not super hot then. plus then we can push an end of summer meet too 8-)

[sr4jcb7]

im guessing its going to be a pretty large turnout so i would plan for that.

[jon]

i wanna aim for june 6th and 7th.

some people can camp the night of the 5th too if they want. then we can all camp the night of the 6th party all night then cruise the 7th? i dunno lol

[Domesticated]

:mrgreen:

[2.5i]

I think it should be at Leavenworth, thats a pretty cool place and for the most part its always nice there or maybe Wenatchee. Either way were gonna need a HUGE camp ground with lots of space in case we get too rowdy.

[jon]

we could all meet in levenworth then have a cruise up to chelan. chelan has 144 spots in its camp grounds. the cruise from levenworth to chelan is beauitful. levenworth is too small for all of us unless we tried to find a big spot inside the wenatchee national forest. chelan seems like the best bet

[justin]

i just realized that in all the excitement of the east meeting the west we havent planned the cruise part yet. haha. so what i think we should do to get the best of both worlds is this. well have the west meet up and the east meet up. obviously a lot of people from each side know each other so that wont be a problem. and then from there well cruise to chelan. and from there we can meet up and hang out and what not and then from there get everyone to cruise to leavanworth. that place could hold all the cars theres just not really a place to camp. so it would be like nwtuners invade leavenworth. well fuck shit up there and then go back to chelan and party til lthe weekend is over and then cruise back. that sounds like a pretty dope plan to me.

[90LXCB7]

Count me in. I missed the Leavenworth meet last year, but, I'm not missing it this year. There may be a few people from around here that'd go. There is a guy from by Chelan, I'm sure he'd go.

[jon]

yea that wouldnt be bad....i like that idea...id we all cruised seperate to levenworth hung out there than all cruised to chelan it would be nice. i was on that levenworth meet last year. it was nice. where could we meet in levenworth other than their safeway or something. i mean we need enough space for prolly what 20 cars at least?

[B-Loud]

This would be badass count me and the rest of Moscow Mafia in for sure!

[jon]

thats what i like to hear!!!!!

[justin]

we could prolly just park all over. im sure there are a bunch of free places around the town. just i guess once we get there groups could break up and park together or something. we can figure those details out later. upon further review i dig my own idea. 60% of the time my ideas work every time. the other 40 im drunk.

[jon]

the thing you have to remember with levenworth is that its a tourist town. weekends during the summer suck ass there cause there is already a shit ton of people in town.

we could all meet in wenatchee and go from there. there is a big lot that we took pics in during the last cruise to chelan i did. i think wenatchee as a meeting place would be better than levenworth. thats my 2 cents

[90LXCB7]

Somewhere like, by Taco Bell, in that huge ass parking lot. It's somewhat easy to find, shouldn't have a difficult time getting everyone outta there, headed to Chelan?

[erik]

Jon, I will make you head of the Events Moderator

[jon]

yay!!! lol


we could all meet at that grocery store by all the auto dealerships in wenatchee. a couple grocery stores there that way anyone who didnt get a bunch of stuff can make sure they have it when we go camping

[90LXCB7]

Which grocery store? I'm drawing a blank

[jon]

there is an iga or something where you turn to head to levenworth

[90LXCB7]

Oh ok, I know where you're talking about. Down in that hole by that Big 5, and that cell phone place?

[?? 360]

If we have enough notice I can probably organize a big group from Bellingham too, we have all wanted to do some really big car meet together to chelan or something so this sounds perfect. Camping in Chelan is deffinetly a good idea though so we can all fucking party our faces off, lol. I don't know if you guys could handle the Bellingham crew though, we're pretty crazy :-P Its too bad summer is sooooooooooo far away!

[90LXCB7]

A friend from Chelan was saying there are a ton of Honda's there, he was talking about posting flyers on cars about the meet, try to make it as big as possible. I think it'll be fun as hell, and I agree, I wish summer wasn't so far away

[jon]

see this is what i wanna see....a huge group from the east side and a huge one from the west side!!!

if we plan this right we could have 30+ cars!!! omg!!!

anyways ya i think it is there by the big 5....


so what does everyone think???

chelan for camping the 6th and 7th of june???

i wanna get this organized and get us spots saved so.....we need everyone to put input in...

i want to have a date at least by dec 1st...if we cant all agree on one before that then we will have the meet june 6th and 7th...




basically in a nut shell....we will have a date and location by jan 1st that way we can schedule and get people organized...yes its 6 months in advance...but screw y'all!!!

[90LXCB7]

I'm game. I might just drive home each day, not sure. I hope to have my car painted by then. I'm sportin a black hood and bumper right now. I'm working on my fogs now, not sure whether I wanna paint the reflectors yellow and or the lenses?? any input?

[erik]

I painted my lenses, I suggest doing the reflector, would look way sicker :P

[90LXCB7]

What paint did you use? and I'm not sure if I wanna go amber or yellow. I'm leaning toward yellow tho

[realchaos1]

SR4J better rally the troops.

[erik]

This will be a multi-forum event, Eddi (realchaos1) and I have discussed this, so it is in the works.

NissanPacific.com will be putting the word out about the event.

We should wait on the date to see what other major events that emerge that might keep people from coming to the East meets West weekend shin-dig. Such as HIN, Forumula Drift, etc.

Thanks for bringing that up Eddi.

This will be a successful EVENT! And big for those online communities involved!

[erik]

We should also consider the geographical location. Maybe we could reach out to the locals near the lake. I'm sure we could find people in the Spokane / Tri-Cities area.

[jon]

i leave for 12 hours and everything gets changed :lol:

i like the idea of keeping it towards the middle of the state....i dunno if anyone know anyone in the chelan area but i think that seems to be the best area for us...its big enough to fit us all

[LimeEM2]

this sounds like its gonna be pretty sick! Id be down for the 6th and 7th of June, not really sure where chelan but if theres camping im in!!!!!! lol

[erik]

Its not changed, if we want it to be largely successful we should consider other larger events that might be going on at the same time. It's still a Chelan thing. But, we might have tuners coming from as far as Montana.

[jon]

ya i think if everyone is cool with it i think we should make it chelan for sure...

the date we should def wait on to consider all of the other clubs in the area...erik your so smart

[erik]

Not me... Eddi suggested that.

[jon]

well one thing we could look into would be that if something like hin is going on we could all roll out and come back...i dunno just an idea

[erik]

well one thing we could look into would be that if something like hin is going on we could all roll out and come back...i dunno just an idea

I doubt HIN will be going on at the time. Formula Drift might be..

[justin]

SR4J better rally the troops.
oh dont worry. ill all of them there.

by the way welcome eddie ha.

[907DC4]

everything is sounding good to me except for how late it is....we wanted a spring meet...not something in June....thats late! why not like March or April?!

[907DC4]

see this is what i wanna see....a huge group from the east side and a huge one from the west side!!!

if we plan this right we could have 30+ cars!!! omg!!!

anyways ya i think it is there by the big 5....

30+ cars....are you kidding!! i'm thinking about 50+ cuz i know of at least 20 that will most likely go!!

[erik]

everything is sounding good to me except for how late it is....we wanted a spring meet...not something in June....thats late! why not like March or April?!

Snow.....Coldness....No fun :(

[jon]

im factoring for 30 right now because we are planning 6 months in advance peoples plans can change...30-50 cars is reasonable....

yeah the reason we are figuring june is because of the weather. if we wanna camp and stuff we gotta do it when its warmer...and technically speaking june 6th is still spring ;) :mrgreen: :ugeek:

[erik]

Pedo Bear PWNED you Damien.

[jon]

http://www.pedobearpics.com/pedobear/bush_bear%20dance.gif

[jon]

posted on a couple more forums...come on guys get the word out!!!!!!!!!

[907DC4]

June is waaaay to late! i wont be here for that...i'll be back home! as for snow & coldness man up!! it wont be cold at the end of march!! Spring Fling car show was nice!! that was over spring break last year....why not late April or something would work out much better i think for most people

[jon]

the thing is we are planning this as a camping trip. im not saying we cant have an eastern washington meet before the big meet. this meet is looking like early june so we can camp and have nice weather without freezing our balls off at night..

[907DC4]

well i know all sorts of clubs that would most likely be down for an east meets west earlier. i know clubs in SEA-TAC area...and bellingham and in between

[erik]

well i know all sorts of clubs that would most likely be down for an east meets west earlier. i know clubs in SEA-TAC area...and bellingham and in between

Do you even know where Sea-Tac is? Don't be frontin'. We all aren't from Alaska, and we don't have eskimo skin like you. This has to work for all involved, with people coming from as far as Missoula... I doubt they would make an early season meet. Hold your horses, it will be worth the wait of an extra week or two.

[justin]

eriks getting cranky!! I think let's just all chill get drunk and figure it out from there.

[jon]

hahaha

we will figure this all out there is no point in complaining about it...we want everyone to be comfortable and the date seems to work best so far but we will tell soon enough

[erik]

I'm ethugging bitches.

[justin]

erik you need to watch NBA shoot around to listen to avery Johnson talk it's amazing, anyways I def don't care when it is because I just wanna party hard and go on a cruise. I doubt my will be up so I got dibs on being the drunk asshole all weekend long!

[erik]

I don't mind when it is, but I want to account for everyone. I have to see everyone's view because... well... I run this.

[jon]

cruises and lots of alcohol sounds like a hell of an awesome weekend to me

[justin]

it will be be I understand where he's coming from but there's no one that says we couldn't do a smaller cruise without camping what if we did a cascade loop or something. It's just if were camping I think people are going to want it a little later so were not freezing at night

[jon]

ya im not saying there cant be another meet before this one. this is just the big one.

we can do a meet in march or april and do a cruise but for argument sake this is our big meet and the camping idea is best in my eyes...then we can plan a couple different cruises during the weekend

[justin]

exactly

[jon]

the drive to chelan for everyone will be extremely nice...i love the little drive from wenatchee to chelan.

we can all meet there or i kno you guys on the west side can take the cascade loop and us over in spokane i got a nice drive that takes us up by omak...trust me its a blast.

maybe ill post some ideas for cruises...anyone who wants to post go for it

[90LXCB7]

Sweet! I'm in Omak. And yes, the North Cascades loop is sweet. Lots of amazing scenery. Diablo Lake is awesome, and that metal grate bridge that shakes when cars go over it... either way, cb willing, count me in.

How's the h swap comin along? That was a sweet ass deal, great find

[jon]

the h wont go in til the spring prolly...gotta get some stuff for it..i wanna do it once and right the first time.


yea i figure we can make big loops and grab people then when we all roll into chelan we can meet and take over the place lol...hopefully at least 40+ cars strong lol

[907DC4]

that is enough of the eskimo talk erik!!! none of that!!! i know Team Menace and they may be down and other clubs in the seattle area and i too know ppl in the Missoula area that may be down as well....just saying we should have an earlier cruise....no camping, but a east meets west cruise or something. i would love to do the camping thing...i just wont be here if its in June....which would blow!!

[jon]

we can prolly do a cruise but to get it to be as big as this one will be is going to be hard...

remember we did have snow up until the beginning of may so to plan a cruise any sooner than june us hard cause the weather is so fucked up in this area

[erik]

that is enough of the eskimo talk erik!!! none of that!!! i know Team Menace and they may be down and other clubs in the seattle area and i too know ppl in the Missoula area that may be down as well....just saying we should have an earlier cruise....no camping, but a east meets west cruise or something. i would love to do the camping thing...i just wont be here if its in June....which would blow!!

Too bad we can't depend on the weather :( You have to fly out if it ends up being in June...

[907DC4]

i could get the cruise big if we wanted to do one! i have connections all over...lol

[erik]

Almost requires a different discussion. Don't differentiate from the origin of post.

[jon]

yeah...if you want to discuss another meet we can start another thread...this thread is getting all over the place.

i understand you can get a huge cruise but for arguments sake this thread is about the june meet.

the meet will happen in june or around then. we want the weather to be nice..

we can start another thread on an early spring cruise but as far this thread goes.

discussion is over

[justin]

ya i think on the west side of things well cruise 20 over and then go all the way down to wenatchee. i think that would be a decent cruise. its half of the loop and then when it comes time to go back you have the option of finishing off the loop down thru stevens pass or you could go back up and take 20.

[justin]

also when we figure out forsure the weekend and things are a little more narrowed down as to where everyone on the west side is going to meet up and what time we are leaving and such i will make a post on dsmtuners. i think that everyone should post in theyre own car specific forums as well. this should be an epic cruise. i think we could single handedly destroy washington in a weekend. and thats not a bad thing.

[jon]

yea i agree. it can be big. if not all of washington destroyed def. chelan...

i figure the east crew could cruise to wenatchee too and the whole group can cruise into chelan together....show our dominance ya kno lol

[justin]

that sounds like a good idea. i think coming from winthrop we will be passing chelan so we might have to back track. im not sure tho i dont spend a lot of time on the east side.

but i def think that we need an east side only thread and a west side only thread so each side and get everything planned and keep things in order. then from there we could update this post with what each sides going to do.

Or, a regional section discussion on where your going to meet would be better.

[justin]

i thought this was more of a regional discussion.

[slice636]

im in usually have weekends off

[90LXCB7]

Hey Justin, you guys that are going thru Winthrop, if you stay in the Methow, just follow the road headed to Wenatchee, it'll dump ya out in Pateros, when ya get to Pateros, take a right, head up the little hill, Chelan is about 15 or 20 miles from that turn. You should be fine

[justin]

alright thanks. i remember we went right past chelan when we did the loop but i wasnt driving or anything. i dont remember stuff as well sitting in the passenger seat.

[sr4jcb7]

okay well count me in with the group that says who cares when it is i will be there... work can deal for a couple days. And by the sounds of it you can count on messing up some part of washington with this meet it will be done!

[justin]

there's no doubt Washington will be fucked up after this cruise sr4j is going to be there plus all the other groups well instagate. It's safe to say washington chili ring will never be the same

[fischerDSM]

hey i just got into this tonight by meetign a bunch of guys including eric and im down to go any wair anytime. I would also like to ask if anyone lives close or in coeur d' alene idaho u should contact me. im trying to find more tuners to hang out with and be in contact with. thanks.

[jon]

there are quite a few in your area. im in spokane but domesticated,jdmjonny,limeem2 are all in cda plus i know there are more...either way welcome aboard

[JetBlack]

There's a stretch of road just before you enter Moses Lake that is impossible to resist. It's about three miles of straight road, with tall berms on either side. That's where I chickened out at 155MPH. I hit fifth and backed down, almost right away. The hood flaps like a rag, in the wind and my hood pins are sitting on a shelf in the garage.

Anywhere near Moses Lake and there will be trouble. Besides my Spanish is not that strong so I can't listen to the radio stations.

:lol:

[jon]

soooooooo anyone have any new genius ideas?

[justin]

i have many genius ideas, but not pertaining to this topic right now.

[2.5i]

I think this should be held out in international waters this way we can't get into trouble for the things we fuck up.

[90LXCB7]

Hey, if anyone needs any info or whatever regarding this meet, I've got a friend that lives about 5 miles from Chelan, he could easily buzz up and check things out and keep us posted?? he works in Chelan, so, he's there daily.

[sr4jcb7]

okay so after a long last night with a few choice people we realized that we fucked up five cities in four hours now that was two cars and five people so i hope Washington is ready for this.

[justin]

so true last night was fun as shit. we also fucked up burlington later. so 6 cities were molested.

[realchaos1]

YEE BOI thats what i thought, in the city of Compton

[jon]

we are gonna completely burn chelan to the ground i think

[JDMJonny]

Maybe we should warn somebody that we are coming.....naw! Sneak attack!

[justin]

The way I see it this thread is fair warning. If they don't when we show up they have obviously not kept their game tight and need their chili ring burned!

So do we have a set weekend yet?

Waiting on official 2009 Event Calendar.

[justin]

Nice that'll be sick

[pinksuby20]

We will be down to go if dustin is still on the forum..

[ozkimmee]

The last 3 pages of this message board, did not pertain to the original topic. I vote for the (5th) 6th and 7th of June. But I think we should get a steady head count on how many sites we'll be needing and get them reserved WAAAAAY ahead of time. Maybe by the middle of April beggining of May? Nothing would be worse than getting 100 drivers together with a ton of alchol and having to sleep in a Wal-Mart parking lot. As for the Spring/Summer argument, if our winter is anything like it was last year, I bet $10 that we're going to have snow somewhere in Washington that week.

[justin]

true. i agree with ozkimmee. the warmer the better for camping.

we def need to start figuring this stuff out soon so we actually know whats going down.

[jon]

thats what ive been saying!!!!! lol

6/7th get my vote...i want to get the camp spots reserved by the end of march at the very very latest!!!!

[90LXCB7]

I was just looking, and the weekend of the 5th thru the 7th, there doesn't look to be shit goin on in Chelan, according to this site.

http://www.cometothelake.com/index.php?page_id=14&site_id=6&search=true&keywords=&event_category_id=&event_region_id=&month_start=6&day_start=5&year_start=2009&month_end=6&day_end=7&year_end=2009&monthly=6&Submit=Search

[justin]

that looks like it would be the best time to go. that way we only have to deal with campers. not a bunch of tourist event follower people. i vote for the 6th/7th also.

[erik]

Check the first post for the flier. Feel free to post it everywhere.

[ozkimmee]

Sweet >_< I'm so in!

[erik]

Does anyone reject to June 6th through 7th, 2009?

[Domesticated]

im good noted

[justin]

it works with me.

[90LXCB7]

I'm game. Sounds like a perfect time. Not too hot, not too cold.

[justin]

ya exactly. plus if we can keep can finally settle on this weekend that means we can plan different summer events. i want to see this forum doing all sorts of events all over the nw.

[jon]

of course its good with me since ive been pushing that date :P

plus if we decide on a date now we can start to reserve camp sites

[erik]

what about discounts since we will be having such a large group. do u know if they offer them

Once we get a head count, either myself or Jon will call to see if they can offer us anything like that.

[jon]

yea thats the park...thanks jr

i will start to get in touch with the park prolly right after the 1st of the year.the biggest thing i want to see if they will give a discount on is the parking. cause we will have a ton of cars. we can do basically 2 tents per site which will cut down on that cost. its the parking im most worried about

[jon]

uppppppddate::

i called a couple parks in the area. the only one i could talk to anyone was at alta lake. he said plain and simple we cant fit 100 cars in alta lake, lake chelan or twenty mile. but he did say that sun lakes could in theory handle 100 cars and people. they have a special group camp area that could fit all of us. it is very close to chelan and we could still go by chelan but he said for when we are going to have this meet that sun lakes would be our best bet....here is a map for reference.

[90LXCB7]

If it's the one I'm thinking about, actually, the 2 I have listed are on the back road going to Manson, and they seem to have adequate parking, and they're both within walking distance of a grocery store, so, if someone forgets something, it's a short walk to the store. And that road to Manson, altho it's a slow drive, it's a fun one, kinda twisty and windy

[jon]

another!!! this is the group site at sun lakes

[gotrice93]

this sounds like its gonna be fun im down

[90LXCB7]

And Alta Lake isn't too far from Pateros, so, again, if someone needs anything, it's right there. I think it's probably 20 miles from Alta Lake to Chelan, but, the people coming from the west side, thru Winthrop will dump out right at the turn off for Alta Lake. Haven't been for a few years, but, from what I remember, it's nice.

[jon]

alta lake wont work...sorry i may have worded that wrong... sun lakes is the camp we would have to use...not too far from chelan

[JDMJonny]

How close is the nearest hospital? lol

[90LXCB7]

Haha, good point. There is one in Chelan, not sure about Pateros, then Brewster.

I wish this would hurry up and get here, I'm tired of the snow!!!

[justin]

That is a good point. Maybe we should just camp out in the hospital parking lot so it'll be easy to find drunk

[MaRbLe]

How about a resort near there, one with a full bar LOL

[jon]

dont worry marble i plan on bringing the full bar ;)

jr is there any areas up there not at a regular campground that we could fit all of us?

[90LXCB7]

Are you talking around Chelan? or? Just south of Chelan is Beebe bridge park, it looks pretty big, nice too. I can check it out this week and let ya know

[jon]

around chelan...i mean it doesnt have to be IN chelan but it would be nice to keep it in that area

[90LXCB7]

I can look around, see what I can find. There is a camping area at Chelan falls, I believe, maybe something in Manson, Beebe Bridge park isn't far from Chelan.

[MaRbLe]

dont worry marble i plan on bringing the full bar ;)


Very nice:-D

[90LXCB7]

What's wrong with the campgrounds in Chelan? that's about the time colleges and shit are gettin out, and Chelan is known for it's scantily clad womens... this could be fun

[jon]

i was just throwin it out there....ya kno so we dont have to deal with cops and forest rangers as much as im sure there will be minors there and im sure none of us want contributing tickets haha

[90LXCB7]

No shit, I'll probably be the oldest one there, shit! Oh well, I'm still going

[90LXCB7]

So, I was just down that way, toward Chelan/Wenatchee... Beebe Bridge park looks good, and right across the river from that is Chelan Falls park... both look pretty spacious, and not too far from Chelan. I'm not sure of the cost for overnight camping, but, I'm sure I could find ou t

[silver_echo]

No shit, I'll probably be the oldest one there, shit! Oh well, I'm still going

how old? because jetblack is getting there, and i am following right behind him

[90LXCB7]

Just turned 33 in September. I read posts on here and see that people are 18, 20, 22, FUCK ALL Y'ALL :D

[realchaos1]

We can provide college women for you, as long as you bring the boat.

[cocobitzz]

count me in.
hopefully i have some new electric fans and a new radiator by then. chelan in the summer is gonna kill.

[realchaos1]

There is no HIN Seattle this year....

[pinksuby20]

Im interested. Any idea on when the date is...

[jon]

june 6th and 7th work good for a lot of people...it gets harder for me to get time off later in the summer (i work in a pool store) plus the chelan area shouldnt be THAT busy at the beginning of june

[pinksuby20]

"plus the chelan area shouldnt be THAT busy at the beginning of june"

haha its going to be pretty busy once it gets warm enough to play in the water.. Dustin and I are down to go. What do we need to bring. besides camping gear.

[jon]

well im thinking we prolly wont tech be in chelan we will be in the chelan area...

as of right now its camping gear and food...we will have to start figuring out who needs to bring what...we are gonna have to make sure everyone has food for a couple days and drinks and lots of beer...and stuff to start and maintain fires lol

[justin]

i think we should make the 6th and 7th the dates forsure. its working for everyone so far. then we can move on to the other things like where forsure we are going to camp and make sure that we get the reservations in early.

[jon]

im gonna set up a poll real quick...

i do wanna kno erik and eddi have you guys heard of anything else the weekend of june 6th and 7th?

[jon]

Poll is up

[erik]

Just got home, I need to catch up on shit.

[jon]

hurry up erik!!!

[90LXCB7]

So, in my travels to Wetsnatchee, there are quite a few parks that allow over night camping near Chelan. Not sure of prices, and I think they're probably a first come, first serve, unless they're reserved. They're all closed now, so I can't get any info.

Off topic... anyone doing Apple Blossom this year? I didn't go last year, but, I heard it was lame...

[Lexus sexy]

Chelan is my home town so count me in and there's camping sites by my house so that could be an alternative

[jon]

awesome lexus!

the biggest thing is we need room to park upwards of 75 cars...so if you kno camping that can handle 75-100 cars that would be awesome!

[erik]

Send me a link to the poll page.

[jon]

in my sig jr

[pinksuby20]

I can call places and see what parks can hold up to 100 cars and how much parks are. I had to do that two summers ago when a group of us from carfreeks went on a drive from portland to crater lake.. I had to find the park to stay at.

[jon]

sun lakes can hold us, alta cant twenty five mile cant chelan would be pushing it...thats what ive figured out

[jon]

our biggest problem is finding a place for 100+ cars

then again i guess everyone wont be camping.....

[pinksuby20]

sun lakes would be the better place to go. I can call there tomorrow and see if they can hold up to 100 cars..

[erik]

Sun Lakes sounds awesome!

[90LXCB7]

I probably won't camp, just drive home... or stay at a friends house, he's not too far from Chelan

[pinksuby20]

I love camping.. Its soo much fun. I expecially love to cook when im camping..

[justin]

remember not everyone is going to be camping. its more of the people who dont want to drive home that night or who wanna just chill and hang out with some people.

[pinksuby20]

That why I posted the things that the two places have. Like parking and you can swim, bbq, and thay have much more at sun lakes.. It was just an idea.

[erik]

Camp you goddamn bitches!

[pinksuby20]

It will be alot more fun if everyone camps.. Cause than theres more time for everyone to hang out and than you have the next day to all cruise home together..

[jon]

yea...here is the idea in my head...

east crew meets up west crew meets up...everyone cruises to wenatchee...we meet in a big parking lot...then all cruise up to the chelan area in one big long line...piss everyone in chelan off...then cruise over to where we are gonna camp...have a bbq camp party drink...then when we get ready to leave leave as a group and go our seperate ways...the east crew can cruise back to the spokane area i know some roads that i wanna cruise back on if no one cars about a drive thats like an extra hr...but trust me its worth it for these roads ;)

[gotrice93]

that actually sounds like a good place. they seem to be happy about seeing our cars. i think some of these places might shit themselve when u say we are going to have over 100 cars. plus the rates dont seem to bad. it would be cool if we could park on the grass to me it just seem a little more car showy. if we do park on the grass just gotta make sure no 1 is spinning tires when they leave. last thing we want is to give us tuners a bad name and be banned from the park

[pinksuby20]

I told her that we are a car group and needed a place for up to 100 cars and she didnt mind. And thats what she sent me, all the information.. If you go to Sun Lakes Resort, it shows all the stuff they have to offer..

[eliteautosport.net]

I wanna take HWY 2 or HWY 20 over much more fun then I90 .. At least to me i like corners its kinda my thing..

[pinksuby20]

What do you guys think of sun lakes??... I think it would be the best place to hold everyone..

[gotrice93]

im down with whatever. i dont know many area's around washington so i dont know the difference. so what ever works for me

[erik]

The prices she said were "per site"? Or per cabin? What are the cabin rates?

[eliteautosport.net]

Oh yea and on HWY 2 theres a long ass stright away for miles of just little hills.. When we went over there last summer we were driveing at 100 for quite awile ..

[pinksuby20]

ya I dont know that much about the eastern part of WA, but ive been doing alot of reading on the different parks and the sun lakes resort is the only one that has replied back to me and is the only one ok with a big car group coming..

[jon]

ok so is that a resort not the state park? thats what it seems like.

she said they have the big lots i wonder if we could work something out and have a whole lot reserved for just the nwtuner crew so we could have a little car show..if we did that maybe we should just work with sun lakes resort and have the 1st east meets west nwtuner meet and car show. prizes and all that jazz

[jon]

i think some people would like that but we also may want to look into just regular campgrounds... you usually can have 3 tents per site and they are like 15 -20 bucks a site...5 bucks is a lot better that 20. im not saying the cabins are a bad idea...

then again didnt she say that the state park camp ground is right next door...hmm we could use the resorts parking lot and camp int he cheap camping lol

just brainstorming

edit: haha sorry i went and re-read...we could def do the sites...if we buddy up we can take 50 spots and share tents that way we can park all the cars there

double edit: i think if we can take over almost one of their whole areas it would be nice... a few fire pits through out and we can walk between them and have a big party...we gotta walk the drinking at the resort tho cause i think we would have more trouble there if we are loud and shit then we would in the state park

[pinksuby20]

ok, so for everyone to know, I posted up the information on cabin prices, and campsite prices. I hope no one is getting mad that im doing this. I am just trying to help get the ball rolling, if you know what I mean. Im good at organizing things emailing people, and calling people. I talked to the lady and she said the same thing in her email that we can all park in the state parking lot, or all park together and put on like a car show thing, she sounded really excited about it.

[jon]

http://www.sunlakesparkresort.com/images/parkmap_medium.jpg

if we were to stay here i think our best bet would be to take the whole back in spot up in the top right corner, hopefully that kinda puts us away from people and could get away with a little more...

if we had the pull through spots as well we could have all of us in that upper right corner which i think would be best if we stayed here...figuring two cars and 1 tent per spot...4 max at each site
fyi no clown suckers jonny

[pinksuby20]

The top right has all the back-in spots so its like one big circle. Which might be better..

[jon]

# Minimum reservation of 2 nights, 3 nights on holidays.

# A deposit of one night must accompany each request. Please include check, money order, or credit card information. Balance including sales tax is due on arrival.


that might pose a problem

[jon]

I'm sure they would work with a large group. But it is something to be concerned about.

[jon]

havent found anything that says yay or nay

[jon]

I'm sure they would work with a large group. But it is something to be concerned about.

yea for 50 spots (assuming people will be able to share) we are looking at $2300 1150 will have to be put down when the reservations are made.

[pinksuby20]

I just emailed her again and asked her how much of a problem it would be if since we r such a big group if we could only stay one night. But i will check on the alcohol policy.. If you want.

[jon]

we are gonna have to kno about the alcohol...thats gonna be a biggie with well pretty much everyone haha

im off to bed folks...we will continue tomorrow night when i get home from work :P

[pinksuby20]

Ya when she emails me back on the one night thing I will ask her about the alcohol.

[jon]

im hoping she can make us some awesome deal for a group our size...

[pinksuby20]

So I just got an email back from the lady at sun lake and she tried talking her manager into making an exeption for us to just beable to stay one night and she said thats not possible expecially on a weekend, being that its summer.. So I emailed lake chelan and asked them if they allow a big group up to 100 and all the same questions. So I am waiting now on a reply to see if lake chelan would be good, its pretty cheap to..

Im sorry.. Im still trying

[90LXCB7]

There is a park/camping area by Beebe bridge, or, there is Chelan Falls...

[jon]

hmmm that stinks...

well hopefully we can come up with something...

actually i know we will haha

[gotrice93]

well hell worst case, find a walmart and camp in there parking lot. buy a fire pit and grill and be4 we leave take it back and tell them we decided we didnt want it anymore

[pinksuby20]

I know we can get something.. We still hve awhile.. Im trying soo much and emailing soo many people...

[jon]

i know you are and thank you!!!!

worse comes to worse we can always stay at different camps and meet up for cruises and such

[gotrice93]

yeah i appreciate all that you are doing

[pinksuby20]

Thank you, I like helping. I have no problem doing this, it gives me something to do..

[justin]

hey we could try this... if your having problems with just the one day lets try... i depending on if i have a job and money or not am planning on heading out there friday at some point in time. so you could arrange everything for the weekend. having people stay there the night of the 5th and 6th and leaving on the 7th. that might help because im sure there and some people like me that would want to get there early. that way the 6th being the saturday would be full of doing stuff. i think that if people over here especially on the west side could leave on the 5th it would be a little better since we would get there in the evening at some point and get everything set up and just chill and then that saturday raise hell all day and night. then roll home sunday whenever you sober up.

[jon]

but the thing is we wouldnt have enough spots for sat night. some oculd stay the night of the 5th but it would would be a waste of money otherwise...sorry that was confusing

[justin]

well no what im saying is when she is calling making the reservations instead of making it a one night thing make it a two night thing. include friday. ya all the people might not be there yet but at least they are still on hold. and im sure there would be enough people there on friday to keep all the sites reserved.

sorry if i am wrong im not trying to be a dick but to me it seemed like she was only trying to make the reservations for the one night. i could see that being a problem taking up that many spots but if its gonna be a whole weekend thing that it might not be as bad because we are not fucking as much shit up.

plus i just found this quote ..

so if we reserved friday and saturday i dont think anything would be a problem.

[jon]

the thing is we will have to pay for both nights for all the sites weather everyone is there or not. im basically saying if we only stay 1 night but pay for 2 we are gonna be wasting a night and still paying for it

[justin]

well thats true but i mean some people like myself would want to get there friday. i could probably get a bunch of people there friday and then we would all obviously be there camping. i understand not everyone wants to camp both nights but if we could figure out who all wants to camp two nights then they would be the ones getting the camp sites and then saturday we could get people to fill in where there is room. it would kind of be one of those awkward first time meeting you things but there will be booze so it will all work out fine.

[jon]

yeah...that def would work...i mean if i can get the fri off from work ill be out there fri night too...but i guess it all depends on how many people we actually have at the meet we need to start getting more of a head count...including who is coming from here and gfs/bfs and friends and you know what im sayin

[Sir Kyle]

I would love to go but its like 6-7 hours away. Why pick a location thats so far north?

[gotrice93]

according to map qwest its like 4 hours from coeur d'alene. i think that was kinda the mid point

[jon]

yeah ita kinda the mid point of washington...4-5 hrs from all the locations except oregon lol

[Sir Kyle]

Mid point of Washington, not the NorthWest

[justin]

when the idea was started no one on here was from oregon. this has been a topic since like day two of the forum. even before we lost everything.

[jon]

yea this started way back. at that time it was washington and idaho. but we are kinda cemented in the chelan area because still at this point it is mostly washington people on here...

[gotrice93]

im gonna try and bring some montana people that i know. it will be a 8 hour trip for them and im sure they will be down

[Sir Kyle]

Its not out of the question or anything. I just hate driving long hours in my car (bad back) Whats neat about this camping spot?
btw everything is 8 hours from Montana...jk

[90LXCB7]

Chelan is great for me, it's only about 45 minutes.

Hey Jon, which way are you gonna be coming? are you goin over Disautel? if so, when you get to Omak, let me know and we can caravan or something. Or, if you go Lahey, let me know and I can meet you in Brewster

[jon]

i dunno yet....we are trying to get everyone in wenachee...so i havent decided the most fun route yet

[90LXCB7]

Aah, I could meet everyone in Wetsnatchee, we could all meet up there, then fly to Chelan. OOh, there is a tunnel on the way to Chelan too, too bad we couldn't get that road blocked off for a few, get everyone to park in there, in both lanes, fill the tunnel and take some pics... I was thinkin about that the other night when I was driving thru that tunnel. I think that'd be a sweet ass photo shoot

[pinksuby20]

I kinda get was you gus are saying.. Ok so you are wanting to pay for two nights which is about $23 for one night so it will be $46 for two nights..
(That rate covers 1-4 adults and up to three items per
site. For example, you could put one car and two tents, two cars and one
tent, or one motorhome,one car and one tent. A fourth item can be added for
an additional $5.00 per night.) Umm..
(The sites are all full hook-up rv sites: water, power and sewer hookup.
They each have a picnic table. We do not have fire pits but you are welcome
to bring your own. There is a large lawn area in the RV park. We have two
large restroom buildings with showers. We have a heated swimming pool, boat rentals, golf course and mini-golf, a convenience grocery, snack bar and gift shop. We are on the
north end of Park Lake which is great for swimming, fishing and boating. We
are located with in Sun Lakes/Dry Falls state park and there are two swim
beaches in the park, large lawn areas, and hiking trails.)

[pinksuby20]

[jon]

alta lake cant handle us..i already talked to them, same with chelan and twenty five mile

[pinksuby20]

so lake wenatchee, and sun lakes..

[pinksuby20]

so is everyone totally against getting to sun lake and staying friday and saturday night. I agree with justin. It would be fun..

[gotrice93]

i am for it. i can understand if not everyone can make it, some people may not beable to get friday off.

[jon]

sun lakes would be fun i agree, lets look into the national park there too before we commit to the resort, they said they would prolly handle us when i talked to alta lake on the phone

[pinksuby20]

Ya i emailed them all and em waiting for a reply..

[pinksuby20]

so I got an email back from the director of the state lake for all of chelan lakes... He is trying to help me fin a site that will be good for us, he i being really nice and calling alot of places for me and emailing me back with what they say..

[erik]

[erik]

7 people have used their voice. :?

[jon]

lol out of the over 100 members....ekkk

[pinksuby20]

so ya I got an email from the sun lakes lady, she really wants us to go. she is going to send me 10-15 brouchers for there lake and wants me to send them out to show you guys what they have. I really like the lake and I think we should pay for the two nights and go there. Its pretty nice..

[jon]

lol of course she wants us to come, its like 2500 in profits for em haha. that sounds like a nice area and if we can figure out a way to get there cheap im totally down

[Nate]

Im so down for this, as long as my car lasts until then haha. You can add me to the list.

[gotrice93]

i think i have about 3 other vehicles coming from montana with me. i talked to them and they sounded interested. one is gonna be on a crotch rocket most likely unless he sells it then he'll ride with me or one of our friends, im spreading the word farther east. pretty soon the site will have to be called allovertuner. haha

[90LXCB7]

I've got a few people that have talked about coming with me. Probably 5 or so

[pinksuby20]

ok so how many people are down for camping two nights..

[90LXCB7]

I'd probably just drive home, depends on how I feel at night, or how drunk I get

[jon]

i cant get the fri off so if i do camp i wouldnt be there until like 10 or 11 pm so its best for me to meet everyone in wenatchee on sat morn

[90LXCB7]

Where is everyone meeting in Wetsnatchee? wasn't this already discussed?

[jon]

i dunno yet...whatever place has the biggest parking lot lol
