    Sunday Meets @ Lakefront

    Just wanted to create a new thread while our leader SLPR protege is recruiting. There is a local hangout on Waukegan beach every Sunday night around 7 to 10 p.m. Currently hondas outnumber us 4 to 1. I learned of this "hangout" from T4TURBO. It may not be the greatest of hangouts but it is definitely nice at the beach. It is open to all members in the chicagoland area. I want to see you guys so I took it on myself to post this. The more members we can get the better for conversation on just Mazda meets in the future maybe even different locations.

    Current members in area: T4turbo, Identity x, skullet, beetleorange, myself, protegeboy78, and SLPRprotege.


    Anyone else interested pm me or T4Turbo or just post here. Remember it is every Sunday at the Waukegan Lakefront.

      I do not know the exact address beetle but I now that it is where Grand avenue ends in Waukegan and pretty much takes to the parking lot near the lake. If anything we can meet somewhere such as gurnee mills and all go from there. Unless you have a better idea, I have to go I will talk to you later.

          Beetle we will meet in the back of the parking lot in front of Sports Authority and the actual mall and Great America both run through Route 132 which is Grand Avenue where it takes you straight to the lakefront if you take it West. I will pm you for further info and cell number. We should probably meet up about 5 or 6. Anyways I now what your car looks like so i will definitely find you. And beetle maybe the next meet if we can figure something out can be halfway between both of our locations or some of the other members. So far it is you, T4Turbo, couple of other guys (not sure they are members but have mazdas), my bro, me, and maybe couple of other guys. If anything we will just bs and hangout. It sucks that you are that far away but we will definitely arrange something more concrete next time or even on Sunday.

            Yeah that is pretty far for me too. I live out in the corn belt of northern illinois. I do spend most of my time around the naperville area (g/f lives there) but it would be very difficult to make meets that are all the way out there, not to mension that I work in Rockford. Just would not be feasible to me. Let me do some looking into a meeting place for us mazda peeps. we have meet a busse woods in schaumburg, but had the "tree" police razzing us.

              I know that it is difficult for the members that are outside the Chicagoland area SLPR and beetle but I think the first meet will help all of us figure out an alternate location for future meets that works for all of us.

                The address for Sports Authority in Gurnee Mills is 6170 Grand Avenue; Gurnee, IL. 60031 for anyone interested in doing a mapquest from their respective location. [Remember we should all meet towards the back of the parking lot so that we can all see one another].

                  If you guys want to meet earlier then 5 let me know. This is a rough time and there is nothing etched in stone. If you guys want to meet earlier post it.
