Alrighty folks, it's getting time to gear up for the summer Meet, Eat, and Compete gathering. We're only a couple of weeks away now and we need to get some food plans lined out.

As we've discussed in the other threads, many of us at the meet will be partaking in a crawfish boil. Obviously not everyone will eat crawfish so we will also be having hotdogs and chips for everyone else.

According to the Headcount thread, we've got 14 cars and 23 people coming, of which 11 people have said they'd go for the crawfish. I'm thinking about 30 lbs will be more than enough, as well as a couple of potatoes and an ear of corn for each person. My dad has the stuff to boil the crawfish in so that won't be a problem.

What we still need is:

-Drinks (preferrably mostly water, its going to be hot)
-Chips
-Dessert of some kind (cookies or brownies would be great)


As we get the things we need I'll modify the list to show what else is still needed.

On another note, it's going to be HOT at the meet, especially during the time of day we're having it. The Pavilion we are planning to have the meet at is unfortunately first-come-first-serve, so we'll be rolling the dice as to whether or not it is available. If the pavilion is full, we will head down the dike to the beach and have it out there. The problem is there is no shade whatsoever out there. What I'm asking is if anyone has a canopy that we can setup for shade, please bring it just in case. If you are worried about having a lot of stuff in your car at the track, don't be as my parents will be taking our truck to put any large things in. I've got one canopy that is pretty decent size that provides a little shade, but we've still gotten sun burned beneath it before. So just keep in mind the sun and heat while we're out there and drink plenty of water and we'll all have a good time.

Thanks, and see y'all there.
Tristan

any thing else needed.....
also me and my wife may be staying in a hotel down there the night befor....any recomendations.......
if we do stay the night I could get up early and lay claim to the pavilion......

 

Not familiar enough with that area--maybe Wheelspin or one of the otherguys that lives down there can!

I do remember passing a few, but wasn't paying attention.

 

I found these on Yahoo Travel


Of those listed, I would definitely suggest Fairfield Inn, I stayed in 2 the past weekend and they were both very nice.

 

Well cool, dude. I was gonna go back and do this in the next couple days to help out, but U beat me to it.

UHHH........U forgot your self on the updated list of who's bringing what?

I sill think we will have 18 to 20 cars showup (do non thirdgens count?)

I'm gonna start a seperate thread for the "Guess how many cars show up at the meet" thing/pool!

 

yeah I've just been real busy the last few days between coming home and working on the car. I'll try and update everything in the next couple days.

 

I won a weekend in Teki (sp) Island from work...I think we will stay there and make the drive over to the meet...I'll have to check on the distance......I'm sure it is closer than from Katy.......see ya guys there.........just looked @ it 15 min. we will be there no problem........

 

List updated. Still need a couple of things, but we've got most everything covered. Looks like we'll have plenty of hotdogs

 

Ok ya'll talked me into it i'm gonna bring some homemade salsa down there.

 

Hey Tristan,

Have u gotten with RudyT about snagging the mudbugs and how many lbs for Saturday?

WOW---just realized the meet is a week away! COOL!!!

Are we just gonna take up a collection to pay him back?

 

Would anyone in the Pasadena/La Porte/Deer Park/ South Houston area be interested in Picking me up for the meet seeing as i don't wanna be the only member showing up not in a third gen but in 85 Junkolla I live in pasadena.

 

If not, drive the 85 Junkolla--that's cool (as long as it's not a FORD!!! )

 

I just sent him a PM a little while ago, haven't heard back, and I asked if he was cool with us taking up a collection.

 

Sorry Guys but my boss just called it quits this morning ....we still have some crawfish but i doubt they''ll make it till Saturday...i think i can still pull some strings around the seafood market maybe get it cheaper or something but not as good quality as my crawfish before.....unless we pay the premium price for sure i still want crawfish and beer ...But if i cant do anything i'll bring some sausage dogs and beer for anybody

 

I personally would rather pay a little more and get some from the seafood market at the Kemah bridge (I assume that is the one U are talking about) than NOT have the crawfish boil. I have really been looking forward to it!

BUT.......if it ain't gonna happen......it ain't gonna happen!

But I'm sure we can MAKE IT HAPPEN!!! We are thirdgenners, not fourthgenners!

 

yup but at the seafood market especially on the weekend it will be hard to get crawfish ....last time i seen like 10 people wanting it and couldnt get it ....and it was pretty expensive too but fo sho we gotta have some

 

So this doesn't mean you're out of a job does it? That would suck!

 

im already hired at the airport just need some more paper work done line tech

 

Cool--what does a line tech do?

 

I've got a handle on the crawfish


in other words, WE'RE STILL BOILIN' SOME MUDBUGS! woooowweeee!

 

im gonna be puttin gas in these jets, park them, and be the guy infront of the air plane ready for take off and a whole lot of other stuff....much better than what i use to do before when i detailed jets and stuff

 

 

Better than hauling mudbugs then?
