I started this thread to discuss a proposed TMS meet. Here are some locations I came up with. Here are a couple dates I'll throw out also, both are Sundays.

September 23rd
September 30th

Mounds State Park - Anderson, IN
Hooters - 6426 E. 82nd Street Indianapolis
Fort Harrison State Park - Indianapolis
Gray Brothers - Mooresville, IN
Eagle Creek Park
Brown County State Park

There are shelters available at the parks, but that would up the cost of the get together.

Obviously there are any number of places we could meet and that could be decided after we get a better count and the general direction everyone is traveling.

If we meet at a park, is there any interest in having a cook out/picnic. I would be willing to take care of the food, we could contribute through paypal or settle up at the meet. Everyone bring their own pop.

Feel free to add your ideas of dates and places, etc. This is to just get the ball seriously rolling.

Hey! Ben, Anywhere in the Indy area sounds good ! but southern Indiana as in the Brown County area would be cool too! As you know there's a lot fun black top to drive there! plus Brown County State park is very car meet friendly place!

Tom, I feel the same about the location I'm open!...Although early October would work better for me. The thing is my wife doesn't let me leave town with out her... she's afraid I'll get lost! She could care less about my stang! So if we go some where there has to be something in it for her like shopping!!!! Thats why I suggested Brown County State park, Nashville Ind is just a few minutes away! with a lot of shops that women dig! plus the park would great for you young studs! with little rug rats.. Plus in October less bugs to get stuck on your stang!

I could do an Indiana get-togther, about a 4hr drive. Sept.23rd would not work for me as that week I'll be on call & can't leave the area, the 30th would work as well as Oct.
Lets just do this before it gets too cold! LOL

Eleanor Dreaming, thanks for getting started ,I'll nominate you to finalize & pick the place.
Thanks in advance.
My company operates the Lifeline helis in & around Indianapolis, I can tap on some local input & perhaps resources if it will help.I know a few people who live & work in the area. Let me know if I can help out.
Let me know if you needs funds for the get-togther, I can contribute via Paypal.

sounds like a lot of fun!...although...thats a pretty long drive for my 43 model year old car....I have no doubt she would make it...I'm just not sure If I want to listen to my exhaust for 3.5 to 4 hours...each way...Maybe I could borrow my dads '06...it had cruise control!...and a/c!

...about the date...i think October could be better for me...I work saturdays and sundays....(I'm a minister)....so I'll need more time in advance...but dont change the date becuase of me...if I cant make it, i cant make it.

I like the location...I went to school in Bloomington so I know the area pretty well.

I can't do Sept! but mid Oct! say the weekend 13-14 ? It sucks at my age still needing to work for a living!.. To bad I don't have 70MACH1OWNER's buck's I could travel all over meeting my Stang bud's.... but maybe I will, by the time I get to his age!!......

70MACH1OWNER

Hey Guys,
My wife and I love the Brown county area. Mid Oct. would be best for me. Sept. weekends are already full on my end. Keep me informed.

Hey Butt head...You just might forget where you would going if you had to drive for serveral hours wouldn't you? Maybe if you took your oldtimers medicine before you left home you'd be okay...

blkstang06

I for got what that medicine is called.....huh! Viagra? I'm sure you know!........ Scott my wife and both like Brown County-Nashville Ind too! Mid Oct is a good time to go there! I wonder if we could get tool281....opps! I'm mean tom281 to come down and hang around with such a conclave of old people?....

70MACH1OWNER

I hope we can all get together no matter where it is. Sounds like fun. If you and the wife want a couple of peaceful days you should try here.

The cabins are about 20 minutes west of Nashville. The wife and I have gone the week between Xmas and New years for the last 3 years. Those mooses at Solitude cabin on 12/25 thur 12/29 is us. You should try it. And you right the roads over there are great fun to drive in these cars. But we normally take the Explorer because the Stang stifles her shopping to much.

Hi guys- like I said I'm up for meeting any time, and anywhere (within reason LOL, places like Florida are not acceptable ).

Let's try to set a date this weekend and get invites out to everyone- I pm'ed everyone on the list I wrote above in post #3 so hopefully more people will join in soon.

JimC

Keep me informed on this - I've already got some weekends planned, but if the selected date fits I plan to drive in from SE Michigan.

Tom, that sounds good!.... Hey man ! your avatar still kinda creeps me out!.....

70MACH1OWNER

Me too!!!! What is it??? Some guy with a bowel impaction?

OK, here goes nothing. Everyone keeps talking about Brown County and October, how about this Brown County on Saturday, October 20th? I am going to guess everyone is familiar with the Brown County traffic that time of year.

Do we want to try to get a Shelter or do we just want to take our chances on getting a picnic area? There are some shelters still available at this time. I am guessing since it a pretty good drive for some we would want to make a day or close to a day out of it.

aircare84

Ben,
That will work for me. I am not familiar with the traffic there though. Shelter or picnic area,really doesn't matter to me. I would suggest an alternate day in case of a rain out. I'll only be able to spend an afternoon there myself as I'll have a 3hr + drive each way. Will also have to bring my youngest with me as wife works Saturdays from 4-11.

tom281

You two guys are killing me.....!


Ben, I'm not familiar with it but if you think a shelter is a good idea then I say let's go for it. I can mark off the 20th, that's fine with me. Let's book something and make it work!

70MACH1OWNER

Hi Ben,
I think it might be best to get the shelter myself. That way we have a fixed area to meet and something to keep us dry if it did rain. It will be the peak of the fall color season over there and it will be busy. It is a very pretty area for a drive and to have a meet. Count me and the wife in. But if Brown county doesn't work for others I will go somewhere else. Scott
