april 17 @ 6pm @ in-n-out @ fremont automall

43349 Pacific Commons Blvd.
Fremont, CA 9453

so BayAreaCorolla and I have been pondering on a meet to welcome spring. here's my suggestion- a meet at fremont automall similar last year's march madness meet we had with BayAreaCorolla, ToyotaNation, some honda people, and whatnot. they haven't had a big norcal meet in months, and i'm sure they're up for another one. considering that we have an upcoming treasure island meet hosted by newcelica at the end of this month (03/28/09) and BAC's monthly wingstop mini-meet in the first thursday of april (04/02/09), i've come to the conclusion that a weekend in the middle or end of april would be a good time to meet. furthermore, it seems like the majority of the other groups/clubs prefer friday and saturday meets. the lengthy head-start would also give all of us a chance to clean our cars from this past rain and crap.

therefore, i have a couple dates in mind:


friday, 04/17/09

saturday, 04/18/09

friday, 04/24/09

saturday, 04/25/09


chime in with your date preference from the four. i'll keep a running tally and finalize the date at the very beginning of april (wednesday, 04/01/09). have a good one. http://www.9thgencorolla.com/forum/oivar/smilies/icon_wink.gif

last year's march madness meet (in case you didn't make it). you can see some norcal YW members in some of those threads:

I'll see if I can go, but school is pretty hectic right now, and Fremont is just way out of my way.

But this is the one you're talking about from last year, right?

You should do a poll and people could just vote on the date that works better for them?
If you do a Saturday, you might get people who work Monday -Friday (plus the procrastinators who won't wash their cars until the last minute, lol!)

^oh no problem. i just laughed at it, wondering "i could've sworn i already did this a few days ago", and thought i failed this thread by mixing it up with the other forums' "automall assembly" thread blah blah... anyways, speaking of the lists, NewCelica list is up and running thanks to a friend. so now we have BAC, TN, NC, and YW. i'll check around with honda peoples.

cad and illustrator? what are you rendering? :wink:

I am going to try to make it. My shop closes at 6 though so I wont be able to make it till late. I am going to try to take off early but stupid customers always like to stroll in the very very very last minute. Literally.

Just rendering some prototype drawings into 3D models for one of my teachers for work-study experience. Making small ads for restaurants/small shops in San Francisco here and there on Illustrator :), freelancing w/ that for experience~ Establishing a portfolio.

Damn, only 2 Yaris people confirmed.....c'mon Yaris Sedan, make it to this. Where's boo_boo, JosephDoc, and the others in the area?

Friday 6:00 p.m. is hard for me. I come from San Francisco so it'd take me forever to get out all the way to Fremont, plus Friday night traffic. :iono:

HOw late do you guys usually hang out?

If I don't make it in person, I"ll be there in spirit! :drinking:


BTW, BUMP

tomato, thats understandable. I commute to Daly City from Fremont, and I know what you mean, especially around 5-6p traffic coming through 101s. Where in SF do you live? I go to SFSU, maybe you and I could meet up on one of my school days or something? ^_^

hey that's cool and understandable indeed. we hang out pretty late. we'll be out of our cars, walking around and checking cars up till around 8, then we would eat. we usually wait till everyone that's 100% is there, or most of them. afterward, we'll stay till 11 just talking and taking pics and whatnot.

No guarantee but if you see a stock, Absolutely Red, 07 pull in, you'll know it's me :)

Kioshi, I work downtown and it's pretty difficult for me to meet during the day. I take Muni to get around in the city most of the time. It's impossible to park downtown anyway.

BTW, love your quote! Garm ought to get some kind of prize for coming up with that one, lol!

the meet was great and then one call to Joseph made it awesome lol ;). The Corolla people are really cool people to hang around with and the Celica people. I wish more Yaris members around Bay Area would come out of their hiding holes :(
