All are welcome to come... I can't wait... who all is planning to go overnight?

Oh... and for the local Raleigh guys, let's leave Raleigh Saturday at 7AM. Which place in Raleigh do you guys wanna meet to depart from?

I am a girl, and I need to split a hotel room with someone responsible and reliable... if it can go more than two ways, that would be great... and it would save some money for us!

Is 7AM early enough for you Raleigh guys? It takes about 2 1/2 hours to get there, and the gates open at 8 for participants and 10 for spectators.

What do we wanna do for our Rotary Picnic? Sandwiches? Go to a restaurant? LOL Input guys, input!!

hey i dont mind paying a bigger amount, but i may end up showing my car...which means id have to get up super early and clean the crap out of it and that means i would need privacy...dont want to sound like spaz...but i dont mind another person but not a whole room full of people....and probley a sitdown restaurant would be best...because it will probley be waaaay to hot for a picnic

Is it early enough!? At 7AM im still trying to figure out who I am lol. Im in!

Meeting place: How about the toys r us parking lot at crabtree, or maybe somewhere at cary towne center? Almost all of us from Raleigh will have to pass one of them at some point I would think. And at 7am, we will be the only souls alive

Yes, Saturday will be the day... let's get a count of people who are going to go.

Just quote the last person who posts this, and add your name to the list:

Crabtree parking lot sounds better, cuz Cary still pisses me off, even though I just got hired at the Cary Wake Med. LOL

I get lost TOO easily there, still. hehe

Ok. Toys R Us at crabtree works great for me. Dont worry, I get lost in Cary too. I once drove past cary towne center 4 times before I realized what was going on!

flyboy, you just press the quote button, and then delete everything but the list, and then add to it. You'll have something that looks like this (minus the underscores '_')

[_QUOTE=perkystina_]
1. PerkyStina (Christina, Raleigh, 87 Yellow N/A)
2. mrthundercleese (Bobby, Raleigh, 04 Silver NA)
[_/QUOTE_]

I went back and did it the right way (for those of you who saw my earlier post)

remove the _ in the [_QUOTE_] and don't forget the [/QUOTE] tag at the end.

I think it will be easiest to go to a local restaurant... cuz like someone said... it could be really hot... and it would be much cheaper this time around to do it this way. I know I'm gonna be going to Nopi Nationals............. so let's definitely try to plan a big picnic thing for that weekend!

Oh... and let's figure out a good meeting place at the event for us to find each other... cuz I KNOW it will be hard to find each other. I mean, my car would be the easiest to track down, cuz it's a yellow FC... and I know there won't be any others there. LOL

Does anyone know the area at all, for us to meet up at a certain time that day?

i know the area... there is not much out there. umm depending on how they do parking..... we have been parking near the restrooms, across from the snack bar at about the 1/8 mile mark or so.

the closest place to eat is like 15min away. burgerking and a umm bojangles or something. i dont remember the way to get there... its not all that close. there is more places to eat back in the main part of rockingham on business 74.

We have been cooking out because of the drive to go eat, and at some events they charge a reentry fee.

BRING SUN SCREEN. There is not a lot of shade there... every trip we did last year a few people got badly burnt. i was one of them.

If someone has a big tent bring it!
