Hey guys I just got a call from the lead coordinator for Toys 4 Tots and he let me know that there will be a meeting regarding the cruise/event this Saturday @ the Airport Starbucks under Nimitz...
My question is...does Oahu Z want to partake in this year's festivities?
I forget what time is the meeting I have the guys contact.
Btw...reason he called me was because I was the "Lead" for the B15 Sentra club before...

I say let's do it and of course the more the merrier(sp?) ...so yeah just wanted to get that out there...

Shoots

 

Thanks Tenga, Kokomo called me as well. I'm the contact for OahuZ.

Informational Meeting
Date: September 19th, 2009
Location: Airport Starbucks (by Big Kahuna's)
Time: 7pm

Toys for Tots Main Event: November 28th, 2009. Times are TBA

He asked if the leaders of the club can show face (One or two people). I'll coordinate with the officers to see who's available.

 

Sounds like a good event. Last year we partook, and had a good turnout. I followed in the Truck. I didnt have my Z...I forget why??? must have been parked at Sonics for something....

 

Im down, last years toys for tots was fun, and became quite humorous at the look out point

 

Yea, it was interesting. wow, that was a year ago huh and that was time I found out that I wasn't getting what I thought I was getting. Kinda ironic I'm finally putting that very same kit on after a year waiting. No bro I haven't forgot sheeet just put it in the back of my mind until now.

 

I think Ill actually make this one too...It has been a full year and I can't believe it...hopefully we can have kamu's car back in action by then. Look forward to seeing you all!

 

i'll be there.......

 

im pretty sure the wife and i will be involved, its gonna be niceto be back and cruise once again with OahuZ

 

when do you guys come back????

 

This should be a good turn out!!! Hopefully we can have the new and the old members of Oahu Z come out. 350 and 370Zs alike coming out to support a good cause. Hopefully a lot of the fellas whose been MIA, including myself, can make it out, and turn this in to a huge Z event.
I mean the last big Z event we had was our run to Cholos, and that was back when our military guys were still here. Maybe we can turn this toys for tots cruise into another cruise and eat type thing. I know last year we all drove down to KBay together but after the look out we all went our separate ways. Just throwing the idea out there but after toys are dropped is anybody down to do a bbq or go some place to eat or something????
Well either way I am down for the cruise and my boy just got a 370 and I know he is down to go as well.

 

I should be home in about 2 weeks!! If my car is out of the shop, you can certainly count me in to cruise and party. I got some paint and body work to get done, but it shouldn't take GX too long to get her ready to roll again.

 

so is there a pre meet??????

 

wow, this is great! YES there will be a pre-meet like last year..and YES we can cruise and or eat before or after the event. Its a long way out but everyone please mark your calendars. Lets do this the right way...OahuZ style!

 

when and where I'll be there with my banged up nismo...

 

Well, I'm not part of OahuZ, but I'll come out to support a good cause...

 

sounds like fun

 

i will be back tuesday night, the 22nd

 

Nice to see the old school back in town. Glad you both made it back safely. Everything is the same as when you left, believe me, you haven't missed anything. I'm sure you both have a lot of catching up to do (12 months worth) with the your wives and Good luck on your new builds, I'm sure you guys got big plans for the Zs.

 

So did anyone go to the meeting?

 

Hey guys, I wasn't able attend the meeting but I did call the person in charge and we had a great conversation on what happened at the meeting and what is to be expected at this years, Toy's for Tot's 2009

Meet Spot: Kapolei KMart
Time: 1030am
Drivers Meeting: 11:15am
Rollout: 1130

We will be cruising from Kapolei to Kaneohe Marine Corps Base. We have a time frame from 12-3pm to get into the gate but I recommend we get there as early as possible.

I say this because this year, instead of just dropping off the Toy's, the commander of the marine base would like to give back to all participating clubs by allowing a "Show & Shine" during the event to show off each and every club. There will be games, food and prizes that will go toward the kids we're sponsoring.

Raffle and Prizes: Each driver dropping off a toy will be issued a raffle ticket for prizes that each club is responsible to bring - let me explain. Each club will donate one (not limited to) raffle prize which will be raffled amongst the other clubs. We can do shirts, gas cards, car parts, discounts, Zippy's Chilli Tickets, whatever you like! just something fun for our fellow car enthusiasts.

They're trying to get the word out to as many clubs as possible so if you know any, please let them know; I can give you the coordinator's contact info. I will be talking to the G Club and posting this in their forums as well.

Bottom Line: I think this is gonna be a great event this year, and according to Toy's for Tot's we're the largest contributing fund of toys for Hawaii. Last year, we brought it over 250 cars with over 300 toys.

We're doing this for the kids, I think they all deserve it. Who's in??
