Big Honda & More Meet - Pittsburgh - [6.25.06]

[outpost4]

Announcing a Meet for all Ridgeline Owners - Sunday, June 25, 2006 - Pittsburgh

You are invited to participate in a charity car meet sponsored by the Honda S2000 Club in Pittsburgh. Also participating will be the Ridgeline Owners Club (national), the Element Owners Club (national), the local Miata, Corvette and classic car clubs for Pittsburgh. Other surprise collector vehicles are scheduled to show.

The meet is Sunday, June 25th, 2006. It will be held in the Monroeville Mall parking lot, by Kaufman's, a recently closed anchor for the mall. There will easily be room for 250 cars and everybody will get enough room to open their doors without hitting other cars.

Here is a map of the Monroeville Mall. To get there, exit Highway 22, the William Penn Highway, off of either Interstate 76 or 376, east of Pittsburgh, depending on the direction you're coming from.

The event is from 11 AM to 5 PM, Sunday, June 25th. Registration will start at 10 AM.

Registration is $10 will all proceeds going to the Make A Wish Foundation.

There will also be a charity auction of merchandise donated by local merchants. One of the items will be an Alpine CDA-9856 with their iPodFullSpeed adapter cable, retail value of $260.

We are hoping for a good turn out of Ridgeline owners wanting to show off their vehicles. Maybe you can also pick up a trick or two to incorporate into your truck. We need a lot of Ridgelines to show up. With all of those S2000's there, somebody has to be able to haul the big stuff when needed!

For more information, please either PM me or email our local representative, Louis, at lof101@gmail.com.

I'm not sure how I missed this. I saw mycruzr mention it and did a search and here it was. WOW....sounds like a great time.

No one has yet has placed this event on the Calender...what happened? I'm still coming though.

Monroeville Mall!, no way My exwifes grandparents live at the top of the hill overlooking it. I would end up running into her, figuretively of course.

I'm in! I plan to be there and will try to get a few other local ( I'm 150 miles away) Ridgeline owners to come. SJMiska, how about it? It sounds like a great time.
My wife has wanted an S2000 ever since she first saw one so this could be a very expensive trip for me! I have a new job that involves a lot of regional travel by car or truck. Hmmmmmm...........

Is there a link to the event or the Pisttsburgh S2000 club?

I'm scheduled to work daylight that Sunday... the day before my scheduled vacation.
But it's undecided whether or not we'll be working 7days/wk by then.

I PM'd outpost4 over a week ago for further info, but haven't got a reply as yet. It's been a month since the original post...

I emailed Louis just today, asking if there were any additional events and activities added to the itinerary.

If/when I get a reply, I'll post anything pertinent.

Hope I get the day off and get a chance to meet summa yunz guys (and "chicks").

I got this email about a week ago, but no follow-up, as yet...

Hi Louis,

I'm a member of the Ridgeline Owners Club and saw the post in the forum
there about the meet on June 25th. My vacation starts the day after on the
26th, but I'm going to try to make it. We've been working 7days/week at my
work, but I don't know if we'll be working that particular Sunday.
I was wondering if there have been any additions to the itinerary since the
post was made last month. Activities? Events? That sort of thing.
I messaged "outpost4" in the forum last week, but have yet to get a reply...

Thanks for any info,
Frank


p.s. others in the forum are wondering the same thing, being the original
post is over a month old. (posted 5/3/06)

Found this post over at the EOC:
http://www.elementownersclub.com/for...ad.php?t=23467
and sadly, the response seems underwhelming for the event.

Hopefully, interest will increase soon... "Make a Wish" seems like a worthy cause... and I'd really like to check-out the S2000's! Work schedule is still "up-in-the-air", however.

Outpost4?... Can you provide us with any updates?

Has anyone else heard anything new?

Thanks,
Frank

I am still planning to be there. How about a head count and a place to gather? I don't necessarily plan to enter or try to show the Ridgeline but it depends on time and timing.

[mycruzr]

Is the Meet/Greet for Pittsburg still on? I was wondering due to the weather we are suppose to get for Maryland. If the Meet/Greet is still on, they of course I will be coming but if the weather will be a big factor, please let me know. Thanks

I just cleared the day and will driving to P-town Sunday. I can't wait.
I promise you one thing....I won't be running over Ben.
