Feeler: Atlanta area Mercedes/Euro meet

I, along with Rooney have been trying to set up a mercedes/euro car meet sometime this fall or late summer. If ANYONE is interested post here with your general location in the area so we can decide on a location. I am in Gwinnett Co just off 316. Let's make this happen...SOON

(UPDATE: The meet will happen at Stone Mountain unless otherwise stated. No date has been established as of 6/25/07 but is being worked on)

I think we're looking hard at Sunday July 29th, 2007 at Stone Mountain Park. If anybody has a suggestion for a more central location, please fire away.

We're still thinking about what time to meet, and we also wanted to know if folks would be interested in grilling out hot dogs and hamburgers to make it legit. I think grilling out would be awesome, personally.

C Drive Registration Link

Sounds like a promising plan. If rain looks likely (what am I thinking, this is Atlanta where it doesn't rain any more!), maybe we could plan an backup/alternative location in an open multi-level parking garage.

On another note - for my fellow Atlantans who haven't received an invite in the mail yet and who want to attend the "C Drive" promotional event for the new C Class, you can just do it directly by going to the following link:

https://www.themercedescdrive.com/registration.asp

You might not want to wait for an invite to arrive via the mail and instead just go ahead to get registered now in order to make sure you get a reservation.

Let me know if anyone else is going to attend the Atlanta event Saturday, September 29, in the morning around 11 am and maybe we can organize a mini gathering of Atlanta MB people for lunch afterwards at noon-ish.

I am going to try and make it.

If we really must have 20 people, should we post this in a few more places with events/gathering forums like www.club202.com, http://mercedesshop.com/shopforum, http://www.benzworld.org/?
