2nd annual Lotus and donuts - LotusTalk

33truballa33 · 01-07-2009, 08:11 AM

This idea was suggested by michael. Last year we had a small get together at the issaquah krispy kreme and I think we had 6 or 7 show up. With as many new people we have on here now this would be a great opportunity to have a face to face and car to car over a nice hot coffee and fatty donut. There is around 12 or so parking spots in the parking lot adjacent to the entrance but there is also ample parking on the backside so it shouldn't be an issue. The proposed dates are Feb 7 or Feb 8. I work the 7th so the 8th would work best for me but if enough people are for the 7th I may be able to weasel my way out. Let us know if you are interested and which dates work best. If there enough interest in the pierce county area we can organize a convoy to the location.

lol, stealing my thunder. Yeah I'm in. Lets make it Sunday the 8th.

Here's the link to the map. It's right off of 90. If you're coming from the south I recommend taking 900 up, just because it's a twisty road rough the woods, it'll be about 3-4 minutes longer trip though.

Now, what time? Last year we did 9am, and a lot of people didn't make it until 10ish, which was rough on me as I had to leave early!

How about this year we schedule it for 10 or 11?

Couple pics from last year, the weather was typically February, a little overcast but good enough for a drive!

Nothing stopping us from having more get togethers. I suppose I really should look into ELCC.

?? Don't know what SUTA stands for but, I already got out of Saturday's drill to be able to do track this weekend. I don't see ether NG or my job doing this again for a Lotus meet. Already some of my supervisors think poorly of me do to the fact I own one.

33truballa33 · 01-09-2009, 03:44 PM

I dont know what it stands for either but essentially its you saying hey i'm going ot miss this drill but will make it up on this other weekend. Sounds like your unit is a group of d bags. That sucks

33truballa33 · 01-09-2009, 07:01 PM

Just joking about the d bag thing. I'm a lil surprised they didn't give u a drill letter let alone a training schedule.... Weird.

Interceptor · 01-10-2009, 08:39 PM

We're Rear D right now.. everyone is away except for a few.

niter1dah · 01-10-2009, 09:38 PM

I'd be down for heading over to XXX Rootbeer afterwards. I miss that place! I used to work at the Costco corporate building near by.

33truballa33 · 01-10-2009, 09:46 PM

Haha donuts and coffee followed by burgers and fries. I'm in for it but we should check to see if they have anything going on there so we can have ample parking.
