I'm looking at one of those 5-in-1 or 4-in-1 jumpers that have slides and stuff built in. hahaha Need to call them tomorrow to get rates (www.astrojump.com).

VT's planning on flying but hopefully we'll get more interests from some of the other SoCal guys and maybe they'll do a caravan to our meet.

Sorry I haven't updated this thread and I'm actually leaving town again for a week starting tomorrow.

Here's what I'm working on so far:

1) Drive: Hoping to do a short drive for about an hour before getting on the grill.

2) Jumper: Looking to rent a 4-in-1 Lightning McQueen combo (jumper, slide and little basketball hoop inside) for about 3.5 hours.

3) One of our members (SJ5er) is bringing a friend from Dent Wizard out to do dent removals at a really low discounted price; somewhere around $20-$40 per panel.

Tentative agenda is to meet at 11AM and those who wants to do the drive, can proceed from the park and then end up back at the same location to start grilling/eating. Jumper will probably be set up by around 12:30 and will stay there till 4PM. Not sure yet when the Dent Wizard person will be out there.

I'm trying to think of other activities and welcome any input. Anyone got a really good volleyball set?

Short and chill drive, or another agressive competition? A trackday, but without the track.

It's always a competition out there. haha j/k

I think we'll be doing the Bear Creek Mountain Rd run to Highway 9 and then to Saratoga Rd and back. It'll be mostly all twist and turns at around 30mph. A couple members actually got a bit nauseated while driving that route the first time we did it a couple years ago.

30MPH? Okay, I believe you.

Guys, get your gloves and your DOT approved race tires ready.
