Hey homies! I am planning a domestic sport compact meet to be held in Galveston very soon, most likely March. You are all invited. I am pasting the original post I made on another domestic board that I visit (I own a Chevy Cavalier btw) ...

I was talking to a couple of people here in town and thought it would be a cool idea if we had a Galveston meet. Would any of you be interested? During my JBO days we tried planning a few Galveston meets but they never really materialized. But I think with the help of a few locals to help plan/reserve locations we can make something like this happen.

There aren't many Cavalier enthusiasts around Houston anymore, so I thought we could team up with other domestic car owners. There are Grand AM owners eager for a big meet. The Chevy Cobalt clubs are growing and doing pretty well. We could just all get together and have one big beach meet. It wont have to be too serious, just a little meet and a cruise and maybe a bbq on the beach or even just all hang out at a restaurant.

I'm going to look into finding some good locations to pick from and then discuss this with a few friends from other boards and see what develops. Post opinions! Comments! Ideas! Dates?

I forgot to add... I will post bulletins and updates on my Myspace page, so add me. You can also leave comments or suggestions if you have any.

Alright, here is an update. I posted this on one of my other boards and just copied/pasted to here...

"How does March sound for you guys? The weather should be nice and springy by then. If March is okay with you guys then we just need to pick an exact date. I think this would be a decent advance notice for this meet. So far there are about 12-15 people committed to attending, mostly Cobalts. I have been in touch with another Cavy club besides this one, the Grand AM owners club, the Cobalt SS Forum guys, a few Ford Focus guys, a few individuals on Myspace, and a few individuals from an online club named "Team Top Fuel" I dont know much about them just yet. I need help getting in touch with any Pontiac Vibe, Chevy HHR, Dodge Neon, Saturns etc. and any other domestic sport compact groups anybody can think of. I made up this rough draft outline of how this meet could unfold....



10AM - Arrive at the meeting spot in Galveston, meet and greet between all the Domestic clubs, chance for everyone to hang out, take pics and vids, and wait for late arrivers.

12 or 12:30 - Roll out towards the west end of Galveston and begin a long cruise down the entire seawall towards the east side of the seawall. (Suggestions for different routes are welcome)

1PM to 4PM - Meet for Lunch at a restaurant with plenty of parking. We can make reservations so we will all have a place to sit.

5PM and later - This time slot is not clear yet. We can use this time to meet somewhere with a nice scenery to take some sweet group pics, maybe somewhere by the Strand or we can run over to Cherry Hill and race em lol, j/k.

Late Afternoon - Crews can split up and do their own thing. There are a ton of things to do in the afternoon/night in Galveston.




This meet could turn up to be a massive event/cruise, and a lot of fun, if I can get all of you to participate. Remember to add me to your Myspace."

I might move to the houston/galveston area by March so I'll let you know.

I am in, make a post on Houston-imports.

u all only have houston imports?? not a domestic site or something??

Hey Trey, I really didn't want to make a post on Houston-Imports right now. Every single meet in Houston is an Import meet. Let's focus on planning a strictly domestic meet right now. I love all types of cars but the point of this meet is to do something for the domestics for a change.

I mgiht go if I dont work.

you know my brother ECOFire

I havent commented on this site in a long time...but the idea sounds pretty good. I moved here from Dallas and ran into some meets up there when I was there, Still wondering if Houston has a meet around town as well as galveston. I am in the process of altering my car. Same with me on Work, it would depend if I am off or not. But If there are any night time meets around town, I would be there

count me in......but isnt spring break in march....too packed maybe?

Hey guys! I think we are going to push this meet back to late April or May. A few folks have some work to do on their cars, a few have school work to wrap up, and yeah Spring Break is around March or April, so the beach would be too packed for us to do any kind of cruising around.

So since this meet is being pushed a little bit too far into the future maybe we can plan another, smaller meet before then? It can be held in another part of town. What do you guys and girls think? And also what side of town does everyone reside in?

PS. Dean your little bro is a pretty kool kid ;)

Oh wow, that sounds bad! What exactly happened to you? You can PM me if you'd like. Galveston is very diverse and I've never had a problem with anyone. But don't worry, I am trying to organize a similar domestic meet, somewhere further into Houston and you could go to that one. Are you guys familiar with "Team Top Fuel" from Houston. They are a huge online car club and they have meets all the time, and they welcome all types of cars... imports, domestics, muscle cars, trucks, suvs. Maybe we could tag along with them on one of their meets? Their message board is... top-fuel.net/forums, I think. I'll get a real link posted.

im in............

Im transferring my duty stations from MCAS Miramar in san diego to NAS corpus christi..so id be up...im making the drive out around march 12th

Wow guys that meet looked sweet! I saw some more pics of it a few weeks ago. Someone posted them on the TTF board. Where did you guys go, Crystal Beach? The team is planning a spring time cruise so I'm taking a back seat and not planning my own meet. It'd be cool if we all coordinated our galveston meets to fall on the same weekend. :D

im not sure what beach... it's just south of the private beaches that u cant go on
