    Cool WEST MAZDA MEET July 28 - August 1, 2011

    So since the east coast has EECMM (Epic East Coast Mazda Meet) every year, i thought why the heck not do a nice big West Mazda Meet! Once a year, 5 days, different locations each year, just a big old good time!

    Try to make the trek if you can, take a few days off work (for Canadians this is a long weekend, so it should be easy to make time). Lots of time to plan from now until then, so lots of time to make money and make travel arrangements. There is lots of lodging, and based on interest we can book a block of rooms at a hotel, or a campground... depending on input.

    Let me know what you all think!

    here is the time estimates to Kelowna BC from some major "Mazda Forums" locations:

    -Edmonton AB - 11.5 hours
    -Calgary AB - 7.5 hours
    -Vancouver BC - 4.5 hours
    -Seattle WA - 5.5 hours
    -Portland OR - 8.5 hours
    -Salt Lake City UT - 18.5 hours
    -Chino Hills CA - 23.5 hours


    Come One Come All!

    Plans: (most TBA as the date gets closer)

    July 28th, Dinner and chill time for persons already there.
    July 29th, Cruise, meet and greet, TBA
    July 30th, TBA (potential show and shine, cruise, beach, booze etc.)
    July 31st, TBA (last full day, "The Last Supper", etc.)
    August 1st, Official Roll Out (see ya next year)

    look into it, it will be a blast for sure!

    UPDATE:

    Day 1 (July 28, Thursday) is an arrival day, for those who want to be there early and take in an extra day, there will be no major planned events today.

    Day 2 (July 29, Friday) is main arrival day, with people flowing in from all over western Canada and the NW United States, with a meet and greet social style event, probably just in a restaurant or hotel lounge (age dependant, will figure location out once all persons are signed up and ages are known. This is the first day with planned events, try to make it out for today if at all possible!)

    Day 3 (July 30, Saturday) there may be people rolling in this morning, and this is the show and shine day (working on a sponsorship deal for trophies/plaques) show and shine from 10am – 4pm, location depends on amount of persons interested, there will be voting! Beach front parking lot, or something of the sort. Photos/videos/etc. whatever you like! Lets see those Mazdas! In the evening, quite possibly do a large bbq or go to a restaurant complete with AWARDS CEREMONY! Later in the night, go to a bar, hang out, (did you meet a cute girl? You know how it is!)

    Day 4 (July 31, Sunday) Cruise Day! We will have a nice SLAM FRIENDLY cruise route planned out starting around 11am, who knows how long it will be yet… “The Last Supper” some people may roll out tonite to get home for work in the AM, others may spend one last night in the glory of Kelowna, and roll out in the AM.

    Day 5 (August 1, Monday) Roll Out day, after breakfast and a potential last cruise, most of the remaining people will leave back home for the work week… see ya next year!

    HEY! more info coming soon, I am working on making it a 3 day meet vs. 5 day meet, seems people are more into the 3 day thing, more affordable, however myself and some friends would be there for 5, to set up, prepare for the event, and make sure it runs smoothly.

    sorry i havent e-mailed you yet Eyce, but i will do so asap, once i have a bit more info!

    event postponed until 2012 summer.

    there was some interest, but i need to start planning it this summer and have the kinks worked out (local shops/city cooperation/hotels)

    also, the main concern i have heard of is funds, people dont have enough money to do it this year... so i decided to postpone it and make it the best damn meet ever for next year. gives people more warning also.

    As i had mentioned previously i am in kelowna so if you need help from this end im into it. I will talk to my local shop and see if there into doing any sort of sponsor ship etc... maybe put on a cruise for that day. problem is kelowna is filled with idiots with gay ass cars that think there sick and i want to avoid that entire group. however the honda and JDM scene is massive and we also have some pretty sick drifters in my area.... DRIFT UNION (also known as the Purple Canadians) who could maybe put on a drift event for that day. But if Shawn and Logan were to put this kind of event on we would need some serious interest. but if some guys came up and rep`d the mazda scene it would make my life. i will make a post about Drift Union so you guys can see whats up!!

    Rad, thanks man, we will talk about it soon, august 2012 will be sick! I'm thinking maybe not just Mazda, but Mazda and friends meet or something. So mostly mazdas, but owners can bring friends with other sick show worthy cars too? Make it bigger and more of a "high class" meet
