Arrow NYRA Flushing Meadow Park Meet III on 9/17 @ 12:00noon

Well guys this is our last NYRA meet for the 2006 season. So this will be the meets to attend of all meets. By popular demand we have selected FMP, the parking lot across the lake. Everyone loved this spots. Everyone is closer to there cars, less people and we have a 1/8th strip.

The meet will be bigger than the last one we held there and had 44 Rotarys come. This time we will have more RX-8's, and upstate rotarys.

The upstate meet we had today at Bear Mountain got us really hooked up with more rotary ppl beyond NYC & LI. We are currently working with them to attend our final meet

So please come thru and lets close this year off with a bang

Thanks

Jason NYC
NYRA President

For those of you who are wondering why September will be the last meet

COPIED from RX-8 CLub

Well there are many reasons why this is the last meet. I start my college semester in late august, early september. So anything after that is no good cuz i wont be as available as i am in the fall season as i was this summer.

Mid september meet isnt that bad becuase im still not knee deep in teh semester.

Also my VP, and treasurer and secretary all get more busy at work and are not as active.

Another reason is most of the club members are RX-7, and a great majority of rx7 guys such as myself take our cars off the rod once october/november hits. So it will be a rotary meet without the rotaries.

Also im setting up something for late september/october, getting together this rotary 101 class.

So those are some of the reasons. We do have winter meets ocassionally depending if we get the Army Armory in Jamaica queens.

But as of this year, sept is the last meet.

Next year the meets will be every second week (on SUNDAY) beginning in april and ending in september. 6 months worth of meet, not counting other rotary events such as Rotorfest, and Pan American Nationals and a few e-town events such as NHRA sport compact nationals and summer slam.

Its a full time job running a club, and theres not that many hands that are actively helping. THats why my occupation is "babysitting nyra members". Cuz thats what you have to do to ensure large turnout of rotary vehicles. Everyone knows this cuz they get mad IMs from me and mass emails BOMBS.

And i cant do work, school and club stuff, its too much for just one person or a few guys. As of right now working on the website, promotion, forums, calling ppl and selling cars / parts. ITs a lot of work for a few guys. I hustle baby! and i get stuff done!

But im getting so exhausted its not even funny. I can see why clubs start off and die off. We need more active NY members.

For those of you not on the local NY forums (http://forum.nyrotary.com/)

Email sent to the registered members



Hello Guys,

Yesterday's Bear mountain meet was one of the best in my opinion. We
had 39 cars by my count. Some of the pics can be found on the last 4
pages. Follow this link to my photo album.
http://s82.photobucket.com/albums/j2...ROTARYROCKET5/

The last meet for the 2006 year will be on September 17th 2006 starting
at 12:00noon.

This will be one of the biggest NYRA meets to date. The enthusiasm we
received in upstate was great. Our upstate members are working with the
new people from that region to ogranize one of the biggest events NY
has seen.

The parking lot we used last time we were at FMP was great. Fewer
people, more parking, and a 1/8th strip.

So please clear your calenders you have more than a month to prepare.
Dont miss this meet!

As always spread the word to your rotary freinds in New York. All
neighboring states are invited as long as you have a rotary your more than
welcome to join us.

We will keep you updated on food/beverages contributions for the next
meet as we get closer to the meet date. Directions will be posted for
those of you coming from Upsate, NJ, CT, MA, VT, PA

If you have anyquestions feel free to contact me, or the other club
mods.

Thanks,

Jason Rodriguez
NYRA President

I didn't go to the upstate meet (obviously). A few reasons:
-I was drinking till the wee hours saturday night/sunday morning
-I was too far away and Jay knows I'm too lazy for that
-I was messing around with my chica

September 17th:
I'm there! Will we be doing this again in that parking lot? I think that's the best bet.

as of right now, not anytime soon. I tried to get some CT guys to find us a spot but im still waiting.

Plus i really want to concentrate on organizing NY. Then we can spread to other states and be more prepared to handle the influx of ppl.

We appreciate you guys coming out trust me. Hope to see you and ure boys at the next meet. Its gonna be sick.

IM me or email me at nycrotaryrocket@yahoo.com. Well discuss this further if you really want to set something up. I got a lot of MA guys i been meeting that could make the CT meet. So holla

hey guys i was wondering if you guys have flyers for the N.Y.R.A.
i see many rx7 guys out in the streets that dont know about the meets or even the RX7CLUB.com i think it would be nice if a flyer would be given to them about N.Y.R.A.

i would chat with these guys about the meets and they are very interested in attending,i dont wanna give my number out to every one so i think a flyer with the web site and lil info would be key to gaining more people.....its just a though what you guys think.....i am willing to chip in for the flyers $$$$
