Talking 3rd Annual MiFbody Meet 'n' Greet 2007: June 16th, 2007

What: 2007 Michigan FBody Spring Meet 'n' Greet
Date: June 16th, 2007
Location: Kensington Metropark, Milford, MI
Pavillion Location: Martindale Beach Pavillion
Price: FREE!

Introduction:
That's right! With the beginning of 2007 starts the official informational thread. The date and location have both been set by you, the members. The only thing I'm setting up is the location, which will be at Martindale Beach Pavillion. The reason for this is due to the size of the parking lot needed. Last year, with about 90 fbodies showing up, we about outgrew our lot. This year, we're pushing for 125 Fbodies. Can we make it? Will we be able to do it? Let's see!

Food and Beverages:
This year's Meet 'n' Greet will be Potluck Style again, as it seemed to work out the best. Soon, a Potluck thread will be started. As always, alcoholic beverages are not allowed at the picnic, and anyone caught drinking will be asked to leave the picnic.

Registration:
As most of you might remember from last year, filling out the registration forms overwhelmed me to say the least. I was constantly registering in people as they entered the picnic area. This year, there's two forms that people can fill out to make my job GREATLY easier to do! Please visit this link and fill out the form in it's entirety to make my job easier when the Meet 'n Greet comes.

General Plans for the Meet 'n' Greet:
The Meet 'n Greet, as a tradition, is a casual meetup to hang out and have fun! The site is still growing at an exponential rate, and there's still a lot of names that we know from the site but we don't have a face to place with the name. The Meet 'n Greet was created to put faces to the usernames on the site. The whole point is to meet new people, hang out, show off our own cars and check out eachother's cars, and lastly to go cruise on Woodward Ave. The location of the Meet 'n Greet this year makes going to Woodward vastly easier. We'll be able to jump on I-96, merge onto I-696, and take that straight to the Woodward exit. Regardless, it should be one kickass cruise on the freeway to Woodward.

Last year was absolutely sweet being just shy of 90 fbodies considering it was only the 2nd year. If anyone wants to view the gallery from last year:

Sure thing, last year we actually had non-fbody awards (They were paper certificates that I printed out -- the site at that time was almost 100% funded out of my own pocket, including paying for the pavillion and any type of awards) but yeah, non-fbodies are allowed to be there, it's an FBody meet and greet, but if others want to come out and hang out, sure.

Alright guys, we've changed the date one week further back to June 16th. The reason for this is due to the Power Tour coming through the Michigan area the week leading up to the 9th. So, everyone has an extra week: We'll have the Meet 'n' Greet on June 16th.

June 16th works for me. I've missed all of your prior events due to scheduling conflicts, but I'll try to be there this time.

Hey guys, gotta change the location now! Went to Kensington Metropark 3 months in advance to register for the event, and sure enough both pavillions at the beach are reserved already!! So, I talked to the park ranger and he said barely anyone goes to the other beach. There's no pavillion, so I'm going to be tenting a 20' x 20' tent for seating. This year should turn out to be a great event, let's just pray for warm, dry weather! :woot:




Also, anyone wanting to go to the event, please register at:

I also lost ( ) a lot of the registration forms from my email server. If you already had registered, please re-register just to be safe. I really appreciate everyone registering before the show to speed up the process.
