Exclamation SoCal GTG Location scouting

Mr FrankW:

Is there any location that would have covered parking???

Last time we had a large meet (Rosebowl), though we had a nice turn out of owners, the heat was probably one of the causes why members could/would not stay long...

Are there any other options closer??... if we are looking for large parking lots... then what about the Rosebowl as it was done last time... good mid point for everyone

not any place I could think of right now that would have covered garage that would be empty on a Saturday. Other than the parking lot maybe behind Hooters next to 57fwy in Anaheim, but I don't know if they open to public or not. The time set is at 4:30-5 Pm right now, it's not going to be that hot.

Rosebowl would be fine w/ me too. We can add that to the vote if people want. Just add tally your vote on replies for ROSEBOWL, thx.

I don't care, but you need to ask those that already signed and agreed to the current location see if they are willing to change.

Live I've said I'm not gonna push to change the location, so you guys will have to get the approval of others that already signed up for the meet at the current location and convince them if you guys want to change the location. If you guys can get other to agree to the location change then that's fine w/ me. we can change it when you done so.

Comon people. It's a done deal. Place and time is set. No more changes. It's just going to confuse people. Next time you want it elsewhere, speak up early.
