Galveston, Texas T Party!

[t-runner]

Sounds like a GREAT idea to me...
(hope the date works out per my schedule.)

I will try my best to make this!

Basicly what happened is that there is so much more to putting on an event, that I knew about. I got some info from the Galveston Chamber of Commerce about a month ago. Lots of legal stuff. So much so, that I tossed it all in the trash.

So, here's the deal. Rather than conflict with the events that are happening now and during the summer, I propose that we just meet up down there one weekend and hang out. Everyone will be responsible for their hotel arrangements. It could be for one day or a whole weekend. Doesn't matter to me. All I know is, it would be a blast!

As the weeks go by, we can decide amongst ourselves when a good date would be. Maybe if the response is good, over time, someone will pick up on this and make it a regular thing.

So, chill out and as the weeks go by, post in here what you think would be a nice time to go down. Keep in mind, Texas Gulf coast weather is nice for a long time. Heck, I was going to the beach in November, last year, so there is plenty of time.

That sounds like a winner for me too. I'll have worked out any bugs, if I have them. The water temp in Galveston is still good at that time and the weather would be a lot more pleasant than the summer months. Late July and August have been the hottest months in recent years.

All right!! Something to shoot for.....

If I don't finish mine in time, I'll at least motor down on 2 wheels to see what is happening.

More than welcome, Paul. This shouldn't be only about T Buckets, as it is a chance to just meet up and have a nice time.

Very true... my local club that I'm currently Vice Director of has two shows a year in two different towns (cities)...

(Legends Car Club)

Our flyer's are shown below... it take all year with every member helping to pull these off and raise some money for charity... the Kirkland show with draw about 500 cars and the Snoqualmie is about 200 cars



We have representatives working with City representatives virtually all year... then there is parking staff, admissions staff, judging, classes, setup and tear down, entertainment, it goes on and on.. trust me, it's a lot of work! Upside is we donate several thousand dollars every year to some great causes!

Anniversary is 21st...That would be a good weekend

There's a place in Galveston on the seawall called "The Spot" Would be a good place to cruise in at.
