Default Arizona CL Meet Suggestion:

I look at Liberty VIP, Gotham VIP and other groups having pretty sick turn outs. How can we as a group make the AZ meets better? Post your ideas and suggestions.

well a lot of members have business' or are in family business. there just isnt much lexus movement out here so thats why the meets are always so small.
i try to go whenever i get the chance, but it rarely happens.

i def think we should plan a f1 day, that was a great idea, cant remember if it was you or cesar that had that idea, but we should definitely follow through with it. I think we need a bigger/more consistent following first before we can do anything huge. we seem to have a very strong 2nd gen gs group. and a few 1st gen is and sc's. we need more 2nd gen is and 3rd gen gs love in the area, I know they are out there cause i see them driving all the time. I have only seen one current body ls modified in the area, and next time i see him ill see if i cant convince him to come out to a meet.

as far as the meets go, i think right now we are doing a pretty good job just getting everyone together and building a tight group.the pavillions is great exposure to a lot of people if we go consistently. show season is coming up, so there will be some good chances for exposure and meets. I think once we get a bigger and more consistent group we can start thinking about maybe getting some dealer support and putting on our own shows and larger events.

Maybe we should reach out to more forums... like ISFANATIC, VSC, MYIS etc to reach more people. We need Shirts, Stickers etc. etc to put the word out.

I know last week the initial plan was a bar-B-Que and what ever. Can this still happen at some time to include family? A photo shoot, a cruise to a specific location with an activity?

Thumbs up

I think there are a lot of Lex out here, but it's hot mang! I know that I stick around the crib a lot more when it's roasting, and the thought of going out to the Pavs and standing outside for hours sweating is not high on my list. When it gets a bit cooler, I'm definitely down and I think more people will be as well.

I would have taken Shern up on the BBQ, but I was working on several projects at the time.

We can plan a cruise up north to Payson or Globe sometime in August and show our support to the Tucson guys on their Mt Lemon cruise.

** Awesome feedback keep it coming...

I use to live in sub tropic weather so forgive me I fully understand that the weather plays a major affect on the turn outs. We have tried to put together events inside too so please look out for them i.e. karts;paintball. As for cruises, I'm game and maybe we can meet the Tucson guys in CG on occasions.
