3rd NYZCC Gathering October 10th - FDR State Park

[EVILC]

New location for the 3rd and final club gathering for 2009! Perfect way to end the seaZon!

With the club growing at a great rate, we wanted to move the event a little north to give the others a chance to make the event and meet the rest of the NYZCC family. It will be a nice drive for anyone leaving the nyc area and hopefully the weather will be perfect!

This time we would like to give everyone three weeks to plan and get the word out. Plan to be there for the day if you can. There were plenty of Z stories and car showing taking place last time. We will start grilling @ 11:30am. We plan on roping off an area for all the Z cars so come before noon if you would like to park as a group.

FDR State Park

2957 Crompond Road

Yorktown Heights, NY 10598

October 10th, 2009

10:00am – 5:00pm (More than welcome to hang out later than 5pm)

There is a $6 charge to get into the park.

FDR State Park is a multi use facility. Children's playgrounds, basketball courts, trails for biking and hiking...so this is a family approved Z gathering.

Just to be a little more specific as to what NYZCC will provide:

Charcoal, lighter fluid, plates, napkins and condiments.

What someone should bring:

Their own meat/ veggies/ drinks / beans etc...

Please use this link below to get directions from your departing address:

You are asked to bring yourself (family is ok), Z (if your Z can't make it come anyway) and food/drinks to be shared by everyone. There are grills in the park, so we shall be making our own food.......hot dogs, hamburgers and anything else we can grill. This should be a great time and I am hoping be can get can about 30 - 40 cars to show up. Come and hang out and meet new Z people and have a great time chatting about cars or playing basketball, tennis, throwing a football around or watching your kids play.

If you have any questions, feel free to email or pm me. If there are any changes before the event, this thread will be updated.

Zya soon.

The rain date for this event will be October 11th same time.

Exact directions in the park will follow soon just save the date!

What a great day today! Seriously, it was great to see a nice turn out, 20 Z cars and 3 show up without theirs! This is very important for you guys to know, only 6 of the 20 cars there today had made it to one of our first two bbqs. If we can get both groups (nyc/li & westchester/upstate ny) together at the same time....easily 40 cars. This number can be reached without one single 350z or 370z......amazing. I am looking forward to have those two models being active in the club next year.

I have to start of by thanking Tom for taking care of this BBQ. He did all the leg work and like stated before paid for permits and such out of pocket...so again thank you for helping get this club off the ground.....sorry for being late....man of the day:

Second I would like to thank the CTZCC members who made the trip to NY for the day. Finally have Frank come out of his state for a Z event is great! Also big big big thank you to Rick & Kathy for bringing #13 for us to see and speak about. Thank you for taking the time out to speak to everyone and give us the history lesson on the car and Zs! Anyone into dogs...speak to Rick......just another hobby of his!

Rick & Kathy & 13:

Lastly I would like to thank all of you for coming out and making this club worth putting in the time for. Met some new people and great looking cars. Again new friendships are being made and families are getting to know one another. The rain held off for us after 10am and the sun kept us warm when we were not in the shade. Everyone ate well I hope and we almost used up all the food this time! The burgers were great! Again thank you for making this a great 3rd bbq and as club prez I would like to say sorry for showing up late...even though you guyz had fun without me This is your club and I hope everyone is happy with the direction it is going....next year will be even bigger!
