** Official MM Woodward Dream Cruise Parking Aug. 17th 2019**

My spot is available if anyone is interested. Got invited to be on a boat so I'm looking forward to that. If not then I'll probably still go. I'll take a hit $65 PayPal available. CMYZ28 idk if this is allowed?

I may need two spots. I will know for sure tommorw. If so i will take yours if thats allowed and also try and get one more from CMYZ28. Just need to confirm if my dad still wants to go and bring his car and one of my trucks or how we want to do it.

Sounds good lmk.
 
Pasted from FB so ignore the picture etc. comments.

At Noon I'm picking up the subs from Tubby's, we'll have a mix of Famous, Ham and Cheese and Turkey and Cheese. Toppings(onions/peppers/sauce/etc.) will all be on the side and we'll have chips/snacks etc. to go with it along with all of the pop/water as usual. As i mentioned previously, I WILL NOT be bringing a grill but you're welcome to bring a small one for yourself if you'd like to cook something off to the side somewhere.

Dinner will be pizza(22 XL pizzas with a mix of pepperoni/ham/ham+pineapple/just cheese) along with breadsticks. I'm anticipating that pizza will be ready/delivered by 5:30 PM since this seems like a reasonable time to eat based on past years.
We will have a VERY full lot this year so i'd ask that you keep this in mind when you park etc, Daily drivers towards the back is better for everyone since they typically don't leave as often and please keep the section pinned in the picture below(back row/corner near the fence) open for me to unload etc.
You'll enter from the side street listed on the picture, I did see construction there last week that i'm hoping is wrapped up before Saturday. I'll keep an eye on it and keep everyone updated.
We have a porta john on site and will have cups/plates/water/pop/etc. like we always have.
I'll be there in the morning, please be prepared to introduce yourself to myself or Justin Williams if it's your first time coming. We don't bite but we do have people who try to park there regardless of the private signs.
We also own the 10 street spots, they are 1st come 1st serve by us(Huntington Woods sold these spots to the property owners 5 years or so ago).
Lastly have fun, enjoy the day, meet new friends.
If you have questions let us know!
 
For anyone that drives by you'll see the side street is still under construction. They said they'll have at least a paver base down by end of day today so no more dirt.
 
will there be a steep ingress/egress? Only curious as some MM hotrods are low & might need to take a different approach to avoid digging up gravel.

No. This turns into something dramatic this will be the last year that I do this event for everyone.
 
I pass by the lot on my way to my gym. The construction area appears to be behind the lot driveways in the neighborhood, so there should be the same approach angle as past years. It also appears to be allowing traffic to pass through into/out of the neighborhood, so we should all be good getting to the lot via Coolidge>Borgman.

Greg spoke with the workers today and i spoke with the lot owner, both had different views but the same answer. There will be a base aka non dirt by Saturday. I'm already completely overwhelmed this year doing this all alone and if someone complains about it Saturday I'll probably snap.. Everyone and everything will be fine! Appreciate you confirming they it will all be ok Thom!

Do you need a hug?

On a serious note - Thank you Nick for your efforts!
 
I wouldn't turn it down .. just beats me up when people are all over me when i spend a ton of time for them to have a good time.

I'll give you a hug Saturday. I even plan on being showered and clean, so it won't be a sweaty smelly post-workday hug.

Time to delegate authority good sir. You should appoint/voluntold a "Woodward Events Director"


I know that for the most part, everyone appreciates all that you do for the Woodward lot weekend. In any situation, their is always those that will complain(not naming any names). Just noting that the 90/10 rule applies to all life situations.

No one would even step up to find food ideas after i asked months ago/since last year so I'm not counting on it lol

Justin has texted me quite a bit about ideas I've ran past him and offered to help, I don't want his efforts to go unnoticed.
 
If anyone needs a spot mine is available. Due to unforeseen circumstances, there is no way I'll have my Cadillac there. Don't need any money, I'd just hate to see a spot wasted. Let me know if anyone wants it. And thanks Nick! You rock!! See you all Saturday!! We're rolling in with Krazybones.

I did try contacting a few food trucks, but everybody was either booked, or stupid expensive. I even proposed to them the idea of serving us for lunch and dinner, and if they had the ability to refill their food supply that they would be able to utilize a spot on the edge of the lot to sell to the general public as long as the club was guaranteed our allotment of food. No one was interested, they wanted us to book them for the day/event and pay through the nose. especially with 100ish people to feed...$1500ish for just a 2 hour block of food buffet time, two meals would have been stupid.

I never posted or contacted you as I felt that at that price, it was a hard pass for that option.

Appreciate the effort! We'll see how the Tubbys/Pizza goes over, should work out well.

I do sincerely apologize if what I asked came off disrespectful or negative in any fashion. Def was not my intent. Main reason for asking was just in case I needed to bring a few 1x6s of wood to help avoid any scuffing of bumpers/frames (if to that extreme of lowness!) .

No need to apologize, written text can be interpreted different ways. You've always went above and beyond and offered to help, not mad/annoyed with you. It was more of a general statement.
