Arrow Long Island Meeting Place Wanted

What we need to do is put out our feelers and talk it up, someone must have a connection to a private lot.

Nassau coliseum, grumman , Brookhaven Airport, Macarthur, Republic, Belmont, colleges, office buildings, etc.

Someone must have a friend or relative who manages, owns, works at ... a large paved area.

Lightbulb 56 Fighter Group

I bet we could just show up next door at the 56 fighter group and spend the same $200 at the bar and they would grill for free for us.
If you have been there on a friday night.. you already know they are pretty tolerant on get togethers.

Lightbulb Nassau Coliseum

John has contacted Nassau Coliseum and is getting prices.

"The parking fields are often used from March through October for Autocross events by such auto clubs like: The Sports Car Club of America (SCCA), The BMW Car Club of America (BMWCCA) NY chapter, and The Porsche Club of America (PCA). These events take place usually in Lot 8 on Saturdays and Sundays from 9AM till 3-5PM. The events are open to anyone with roadworthy automobile (although club membership garners lower entrance fees"
