Presidents' Day Meet '09, Afterthoughts and Pics...
To all those who participate in making ClubLexus of Southern California the largest regional Lexus enthusiast club in the World, I thank you!
Post your pics and afterthoughts on this thread.
My input:
First and foremost, I thank all of you who have supported this little online community we like to call ClubLexus of Southern California. I truly enjoy your company, and your efforts in making meets like this interesting and memorable.
Second, I do have to admit that I did not know that Medieval Times had a permit for the lot that day. Had I known, I would have chosen a second location in mind. I had never had any problems with this location before in the past, and now that we are all aware of the fact, we shall enjoy our meets at another location for future Presidents' Day Meets. I love to patronize Po' Folks and Starbucks, and I hope that you also continue to use their businesses.
Third, since Medieval Times did have a permit, I respect their authority over the lot. However, I am extremely disappointed with the disrespectful behavior and attitude of the Manager that presented herself to our meet. Her actions have tainted any good light that I have for Medieval Times, and unfortunately, their business will suffer due to the dozens of CL members she alone disrespected. She did her job as a manager, but she did not do her job in customer service. She could have simply asked us to leave, but instead, she disrespectfully used brute force without any warning. For this, I hope she realizes that Medieval Times lost dozens of potential customers from our meet, and will share this incident with all those that ask us about their unsavory business.
Fourth, to all those who were parted from the original meet, I hope that you enjoyed the company of other CL members that continued to make the day a pleasant one. I myself enjoyed the meet until the late hours of the night, spending time with CL members in various locations and activities. I hope you all had a fun day, even after the fiasco.
In conclusion, I wish all of you peace of mind that our future meets will be bigger and better. We as a community need to work together to find the best places to meet; know the right people to invite; and make the most out of what we've got, which is the company and enjoyment of each other, as well as the passion and artistry of our beloved rides and toys.
Cheers!

Meet was a total bummer...got there at 2:00 parked my car, waited nearly 30 mins for starbucks, left.
If this meet happens every year was the landlord notified of us being there? was a permit necessary? it was a pretty damn good turn out too... to be broken up was a disappointment.
