Oregon August Meeting

Are we going to have a get-together this month?

 

Good question. With CV going on, who knows? I leave for CV tonight and return Monday afternoon.

I can say that on Sunday, August 22, the Mandalorian Mercs are going to have a photo shoot at Ft Columbia, Washington (that is near Illwaco and Long Beach area) around noon and then off to Long Beach to invade the Kite Festival they have going on.

Just saying, in case some OFF members wanted to make an appearance!

Well, we could meet up for a non star wars activity.

Where: Highland Community Church 4100 SE 182nd Ave. Gresham OR. This is the 10th Annual Classic car Cruise In. Hosted by Road Knights and Northwest Nomads. Movie and TV Theme Car Portion is hosted by Cinema Classics Car Club
Time: 11am-4pm
A big Movie & TV theme car show is coming to Portland Oregon. We are just finishing up it's planning stages and now it's time for the big announcement. The 10th Annual Highland Community Church Classic Car Show is about to host a car show and the Cinema Classics Car Club is in charge of the Movie & TV theme car part of the show. It will be the biggest Movie & TV themed car event ever here in the Portland Oregon area on August 21, 2010. This is an outdoor event, so the Movie & TV theme cars that are committing to this event are doing so with the agreement that if it rains they won't be able to attend. Hope it doesn't rain.

No where ever in the United States have you seen these particular Movie & TV cars in the same place at the same time. This event is free to the general public!

Movie & TV theme replica cars that are already committed to this event are American Graffiti's Milner's Coupe and the Red Ford T-bucket, Herbie The Love Bug, Stuntman Mike's Nova & Kim's Mustang from the movie "Death Proof", 1967 Supernatural Chevy, Bumblebee one and two from Transformers, Scooby Doo's Mystery Machine, Brady Bunch Station Wagon, all centered around the 1966 Batmobile replica. This is just the list as of this writing, more to come.

We might even see some cool costumed characters.
What do you guys think?

 

Or we can have a meeting Aug.28th somehwere?

 

We could. Any ideas on where?

 

Ahem! Any ideas?

 

I'm really busy trying to upgrade my Mando costume to keep compliant. The deadline is on the 1st of September. So that is what I am focused on, right now. If I don't make the deadline, I lose my official member status, as well as my rank in the clan.

I'm kind of disappointed in our group a # of members have not chimed in in awhile and haven't been to the last meeting or to the picnic. AramysStrael, Jedigunship were at the last meeting. Jedigunship attended the picnic, but where was everyone else. I know AramysStrael's story, and darth life can get in the way.
Forget August meeting and have a HARDCORE date set for SEPT.5th Kennedy School McMennimens resturant? It seems like it's the location where everyone has actually showed up to.
Thoughts?

I'd be up for that.

 

Sept 5th would be a good date.

 

If someone is willing to swing by my work to pick me up (I get off at 3pm), so that I can ride in with them, I am in!
