Fall Drive - Meet

OK, ORIDWA smarties- it's time to get serious about our next event.

Dunerunner and others have put out some great ideas. Scenic Drive in the Pacific Northwest


We all had a blast at the Prosser meet!
PNW SCOA Chapter Rally Pics Thread



Let's come up with some ideas for an autumn gathering.

I'm just thinking out loud here, but..


A smartie costume party - dress up your smart and show off a bit.

A Yamhill County winery tour (November is the best time)

An urban gathering in the city (Portland?)

A meet and greet and panel swap

Drive up/down the coast

Drive up Mt Hood or Mt St Helen's or...?

Let's think about dates and ideas. The last two smart events I attended were fantastic and I think another in this beautiful fall weather is a great idea. Let's all get away from the wall street turmoil, the election season brew-ha-ha and our everyday routines and just drive!

fall meet

Any chance they would let us see how many Smarties would fit in the Spruce Goose? I'm up for a trip (even without cruise control). Anything after mid October would work for me. Maybe I will figure out an avatar by then. Anybody sell 15" hubcaps down that way? I am sure ther are some I don't have. Heh! Heh! Heh!

I'll probably not meet anyone coming over from the coast unless Susie1382 is going and wants to caravan. Still don't know a date, Hedders said after the third, I think; week of October for him.

I would be interested but would need to know a date in advance so I could plan for it. The Prosser's event looked like a lot of fun and I missed out on most of it. I want to plan ahead for this one.

Hi Guys! McMinnville, OR could be fun! Terri and I have 'kinda always wanted to stay at the McMenamins there! The ones that we've already visited always have really good food and some pretty nice microbrews!! Like micromachine, I would like to know a date as far out as possible to plan trading shifts at work or whatever! I'm ALSO off for Thanksgiving..........if someone wants to host a smartie Thanksgiving somewhere!!
