ZinFreak Posted February 5, 2007 Share Posted February 5, 2007 Yes, it's almost that time of year again... In 2007 the annual meet & drive event will be held on Sunday May 27th (Memorial Day Weekend). This is the second year that the event will be a "joint-venture" with the folks from subaruforester.org. So come on all you Legacy drivers, let's put up a good show of numbers! As previously done before, we will meet at a common starting point in the morning, and then split off into two separate groups for the drive portion of the event: Touring and Tasting group - this group will enjoy a pleasant, scenic cruise through some of Northern California's most well-known wine regions. We will take a few breaks at three selected wineries for tasting and light snacks. We will use the lesser known scenic back roads to avoid Memorial Day traffic. If you intend on bringing a child like ZinFreak does, this is the group for you. Drivers Group - Lead by Paul Eklund, this group is in for a quick-paced, enjoyable tour of some of the least traveled roads of Sonoma, Mendocino, and Lake County. There will be basic stops for fuel at predetermined locations, a short lunch break (read 30 minutes or less), and a LOT of backroads to be explored. This will be for those of you NOT concerned about expending a little fuel while having fun. Because of this, there will be NO STOPS FOR WINE TASTING!! Also, because of safety concerns, we'd rather not see children under the age of 14 as passengers in the Drivers Group (I'll relate the story behind that, if you want to hear it). If you are bringing a passenger, please be aware that carsickness is a real concern on this route, so they should either be a seasoned co-driver with cast-iron stomach, or have some Dramamine or wristbands handy. BBQ - In the afternoon both groups will converge for a BBQ at Warm Springs Recreation Area at Lake Sonoma. The Warm Springs Recreation Area has picnic tables, BBQ pits, volleyball courts, and a children's playground. Camping Information Lake Sonoma contains a drive-in camping at Liberty Glen Campground with 97 campsites. Please note that the well at Liberty Glen ran dry years ago. There is no running water at the sites, although water is available at the ranger station across from the picnic grounds. The campground does have chemical vault toilets. Loop 'C' campsites have spectacular views. Sites can be reserved ahead of time using the Recreation.gov website. Cloverdale KOA: has tent and RV camping as well as cabins and lodges. Other amenities include wireless internet, pool/spa, basketball courts, mini-golf, playgrounds, and a fishing pond. _______________________________________________________________________ We are requiring pre-registration for the first time this year. The cost is $10/person to help offset expenses for food, drinks, and the park fee - payable by Paypal or check (contact me for info on the latter option).

Dong Homez Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Is the prize worth more than 10 bucks? It might be worth registering just for the prize. All joking aside, I'm in leggnut's position. A few variables to figure out. I'm 75% in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ferenczy33 Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 As newbie to the subie...I'd love to be there. Just need to clear it with the fiance. Now I only need to figure out a way to somehow quench the womans appetite for wine and get myself in the drivers group at the same time. I used to belong to a Acura Integra club and had a bunch of friends who ran Z-cars (240s, 280s, and 300s) and used to attend these sorts of events all the time...but it's been years.

leggtnut Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 We are debating which one to take this year. She wants to take the FXT since we want to camp, but I am getting new suspension put on the LGT. Hmmmm.
