Let's see if we can get some interest... I think we should plan a CAM meet during this weekend. I will organize a Saturday Car Show for the Marauders at a parking lot in front of a friends restaurant near 130th Street. I think if we start planning now this could be a great time. I may have a conflict due to my new endeavor racing boats (the Championship is in Tennessee that same weekend) but I want to get a guage on whether we can make a great weekend happen.

I also have some contacts for an all-you-can-eat crab night (at a discount) and maybe even some charter fishing on Sunday morning for the members.

Let me know what you guys think. :beer:

UPDATED INFORMATION:

Hey guys... It seems like everyones plans are coming together and that is great! As I stated previously, this weekend in OC will not be a heavily scheduled affair. There are plenty of things to do and I'm sure we will all be busy doing our own things. With that being said, this past weekend I finalized our location for the CAM mini-meet and car display. It will be from 11am-2pm on Saturday October 11th... The location will be 130th Street - Bayside, in the parking-lot section directly behind the fire station and in front of Duffy's Tavern. Matt Bayline, Duffy's owner, has offered to set aside space for us for lunch and supply a trophy and t-shirts for the best in show and two runner-ups as voted by the participants. This will give us some time to catch up and BS as well as have a nice lunch together. Lunch will be at around 12:30pm... Their food is great and Ms. Bev makes the best home-made soups on the shore. This also gives everyone time to participate in the car related festivities elsewhere and we can always make a cruise south together as a show of force...

Our Dinner & Crab Feast will be held at The Crab Shack on 131st - Bayside at around 7pm... Dessert combined with a few drinks and cigars will be at my condo on 135th Street if anyone is interested.

With the cost of gas setting all time highs weekly it might be difficult to get the C.A.M. group out to play in OC. This would be the longest distance for any C.A.M gathering. Good luck. :)

[JAYSILVER04]

Im not a member of C.A.M but i only live about 45 minutes away from O.C. and plan on going down that weekend anyway. Im in for hanging out!!

175 miles for me. I would love to do this for the whole weekend Fri-Sun -- but that weekend is bad timing. Other committments.

Sure you are .... just show up at a meet sometime. :D

[DOOM]

Screw the gas prices. If theres enough interest i'll be there.

[High-C]

I like your style DOOM... Remember, "You gotta pay to play..." :cool:

[Joe Walsh]

I'm in for that weekend!

Even if I can only go down for 1 day.

I used to go down to O.C. for the fall cruise every year.
My friends and I'd go surf fishing, golfing AND hang out to watch all the awesome cars that are cruising the highway.

They USED to have an impromptu burn-out show at Hooters...but some knuckleheads got really squirrelly and the OCPD shut it down...:(

[DOOM]

Hooters!!!

[O's Fan Rich]

Ummm... perhaps.
Hotel?
No charter fishing for me though.

[baltimoremm]

I'm there every may and october. i usually drive the cadillac, but if there are enough marauders going, i'll bring her

[shawn.criswell]

150 miles for me, sounds greeeaattt!

[airborne_mp84]

ill be there depending on if i work or not

[Iowa Rick]

Pitty I'll miss it! I'll be in Sterling VA The 1st week in October, Heading up to Poughkeepsie NY that weekend then back to Iowa. Would have been nice to see some other MM.net owners. Rick

PS screw the cost of gas!

[ctrlraven]

I would be interested. It's all highway mileage so my MM will like that very much.

[High-C]

There should be plenty of rooms available right now, but they may start to get harder to find as the dates get closer. The Fenwick Inn is right across the street from my place and I suggest that people try to stay on the North end of OC... It will be a great time for all involved!!!

If everyone is really in, I can get some hotel info and hunt for some discounts this weekend. I'm going up on Friday and I'll do some research and nail down a spot for us to show off our rides...

- Chris

[Joe Walsh]

Is there a way to register for the cruise down the boardwalk?

That would be awesome to have a line of Marauders on OC's boardwalk!

[High-C]

Joe, You're right about that... I will get an answer to that this weekend as well. Hell, even if it's just a few of us, it will be a blast driving down the boardwalk.

[O's Fan Rich]

I'll be watching.... with the Flurry of activity in the Long household for the next 3 months, a OC getaway weekend in Oct may be just what the Dr. should order.

[vkirkend]

This could be a go for me. Make me tentative...
Bump that, I'm booked and ready to go!!!!

[baltimoremm]

Is there a way to register for the cruise down the boardwalk?

That would be awesome to have a line of Marauders on OC's boardwalk!

Vehicles newer than 1976 can register, but they have to be special interest (i think we qualify as "special interest" but i'm not sure.
However, I'm pretty sure only 1976 and older are allowed on the boardwalk cruise.
I've gone every year since I can remember, it gets bigger and bigger every year, tons of fun!

[Bluerauder]

Is there a way to register for the cruise down the boardwalk?

.... limited to the first 1500 vehicles and is open to all years Customs, Hot Rods, Street Machines and Trick Trucks.

Suggest you register with "MercuryMarauder.Net" as your car club to be in the running for a club award.

[DOOM]

Lets do it!

[shawn.criswell]

Sounds awsome! should be some great photo ops

[O's Fan Rich]

So a place near 27th-40th street is best?

[High-C]

My place is on 135th - Oceanside and where we will be eating crabs is on 130th at The Crab Bag. The main car show is at the inlet but gets pretty hectic. People cruise the entire length of OC... If we do our own thing, I can set up a section of parking lot on 129th in front of Duffy's Tavern because I am friends with the owner and the beer is nice and cold... It is less congested on the North-end and we can always venture South on our own accord as the entire city is one big car show. Just some thoughts but obviously nothing is set in stone. It will just be a good opportunity to hang out and enjoy the weekend without any concrete schedules... I'm starting to look forward to this already! - Chris

Ok, that sounds better.
I'll continue my search .

FYI, The Fenwick Inn is reasonably priced and within stumbling distance from the Bourbon at my place... :cool:
:beer:

[chucky]

Sounds like a great idea I always wanted to check it out.
If Im reading it right the Fenwick cost 200.00 for the 4 days.

[O's Fan Rich]

Renting a condo.... will be there for a week at least.

[FreddieH]

I'm in, I am 45mins. away, probably the second closest next to High-C.

[O's Fan Rich]

Condo reserved......
Thanks for the trip idea.

[High-C]

I'm glad you're in Rich... Freddie, we'll see you there as well. I had some good talks with friends this past weekend and I will continue to work on some details. I think we should have a set meet on Saturday afternoon for MMs and an all you can eat crab feast right after. I will post up locations etc as we get closer... :beer:

[Joe Walsh]

Might I suggest a worthy diversion from the OC Cruise....?

I think that a trip up to Milton, Delaware for a brewery tour would be great!

www.dogfish.com

It was recently rated a 'Top Ten' brewery tour in the country.

From the north end of O.C. (@145th street) it is 34 miles/48 minutes per Mapquest.

No group discounts... I don't really have any contacts for room discounts.

[Shora]

I'm a member of the Sunshine State Marauders (from Miami, FL). I own a couple of stores here in OC and come for the summers. This Oct. I may decide to stay up here and fix the stores a little before closing down and heading back down to Miami.

If this meet gets going and if we can charter a boat, I'm in.

[High-C]

I like the way you think... Saturday early a.m. fishing, a late afternoon show/meet and all-you-can-eat crabs at dusk... Sounds like a plan to me. I'll get some rates from a few guys I know down at the marina. - C

[O's Fan Rich]

It'd be the off season so I'd imagine they be what they be..... arrrrggghhhh.

Oh, and it looks like my kids and their spouse's will be arriving for the weekend to mooch off Mom and dad, too....
oh boy.

To add to this, Our own Bob Johnson (yes, that is his real name) tells me this is good stuff AND that he was a help to them in getting the mix right.
We owe it to Cheeseheadbob to do this ....:D

Do you think that we can schedule it for Sunday? I think Saturday will be good for a Marauder-Day and this sounds like a good post-brunch Sunday excursion...

[Fatboy's Merc]

If my son doesn't have a football game that weekend I'm in. I'd like to meet you guys !

[High-C]

I will be there from the 8th through the 13th... I will have details for the weekend as we get closer. Saturday is still the day for the MM meet and all-you-can-eat crabs! Maybe some fishing on Sunday morning... I'm glad to hear everyone is coming!

Anyone up for a DogsHead Brewery tour on Friday afternoon?

We might want to register for the tour now so we they don't book up...:dunno:

[ImpalaSlayer]

Joe, do you gota be 21 to take the tour? and as for OC, i can prolly make it down that sat when all the mm will meet up

[O's Fan Rich]

Yes... yes I am.... we are, I mean.

Don't know what time the kids will arrive on Friday, yet, but we'll work it out!

[DOOM]

High-C anymore info?

[Cheeseheadbob]

Joe, that would be Dogfishhead. If you are driving, DO NOT try the 120 Minute IPA, because you will probably drive straight into the ocean. Close to 16% ABV. If you are not driving, I would strongly suggest trying it. I know this sounds weird coming from me, since I don't drink anymore and attend some of those crazy AA meetings, but I do know my beer and I consulted for Dogfishhead back before they opened up their production brewery. They make some of the finest brews in the country. They also make some darn fine vodka. I would be interested in your review of the brews when you get back.

Sounds to me that that'd be a "carry out" item for later that evening....

Could a nice cigar be combined with the previously mentioned "carry out" item?

BTW: Bob, Thanks for the correction...DogFISH Head Brewery.

[SWOOSH]

Sounds good to me, I am an OC local, so that gives me an excuse to get away!

There are plenty of things to do and I'm sure we will all be busy doing our own things. With that being said, this past weekend I finalized our location for the CAM mini-meet and car display. I think that we should do this from 11am-2pm on Saturday October 11th... The location will be 130th Street - Bayside, in the parking-lot section directly behind the fire station and in front of Duffy's Tavern.

This also gives everyone time to participate in the car related festivities elsewhere and we can always make a cruise south together as a show of force...

If I can get a tentative head count, I will also post the info for the crab feast that evening as well. It will most likely be held at The Crab Shack on 131st - Bayside at around 6pm and then dessert and a few drinks and cigars at my condo on 135th...

The Sunday morning fishing trip is still up in the air depending on the interest as the pricing is hard to nail down without a set number... It is definitely not gonna be cheap but I can guarantee a good time.

Again, I think it's great that we are all getting to spend some time at the beach together but I want everyone to be able to relax and enjoy the weekend in their own way. Let's get a head count together and I will edit it into the first post. Thanks for the interest guys and I look forward to seeing everyone!

Just post up when you are 100% sure and I'll add you to the head-count.

Also fellas, let's get some numbers together for who wants to go fishing on Sunday...

[O's Fan Rich]

No fishing for me. If I go you won't catch anything anyway.

[Joe Walsh]

I'm going to pass on the fishing also...I'm hurting for $$$ right now, so I will settle for watching the sweet rides cruisin' up & down OC Highway.

Joe, The dollars aren't really there for me either... I think you are right about watching the rides. I think I'm gonna move away from the offshore charter idea but if anyone wants to cruise the bay, I have a friend with a nice pontoon boat that may be fun for a few drinks and a sunset on Sunday evening. Either way, I look forward to hangin' out...

[ImpalaSlayer]

im sorry i breifly skimmed throught this thread for a date when we are all trying to meet up for the day but i didnt see it. i dont have the time or money to spend a few days donw there but id be willing to drive down for a day if such a date exists. im only about an hour from there i think maybe a bit more.

[High-C]

The first post shows the dates of the main event which is October 9th through the 12th, and a link to the webpage... We are planning to get together on Saturday the 11th and the mini-show and CAM lunch will be from 11am to 2pm with continued festivities into the evening. We are also thinking about some additional fun on Sunday, but if you were only going to come down for 1 day, Saturday would be it...

[ImpalaSlayer]

thanks high c thats the answer i needed

[DTRMiguel]

Hey will i be able to do anything down there? I am only 20! And High-C whats the head count now?

Saturday would be the day for you bro. Thats when im going.

[High-C]

Okay fellas… Here’s the deal… I need to get some personal head-count numbers from each of you meeting up on Saturday in OC. I need to know how many cars will be participating in the Mini-CAM-Meet/Marauder Show and how many people will be having lunch with us at Duffy’s Tavern. Matt wants to know how much room we need etc, so we have adequate space and are well taken care of…

I also need to know how many people will be eating crabs that evening so I can finalize a possible group discount with my friend & manager at the Crab Bag. I personally won’t be doing the all-you-can-eat crabs but they are the best in town. They also have great crab cakes, shrimp, sandwiches, a kids menu, and other good food as well… Not to mention cold beer…

Slayer, there will be dozens of car shows going on that day as well as numerous other activities that the beach and boardwalk has to offer…

You can always watch Rich and I drink if you like. :beer:

[O's Fan Rich]

I'm in for all- you-can eat..... Michelle will take what she gets....

I'd imagine my daughter an her husband will attend, but not the all you can eat.

So.... that's 4.

As long as the MM is ok... she'll be there too.

[Joe Walsh]

I'm in for the 'All you can eat crabs' !!!
Marianne will probably just get a crab cake dinner.
Black '03 Marauder will be there too.

BTW: How long can we sit and eat crabs there...???

Because when I partake of 'All you can eat crabs' it goes something like this...

1: Talk to friends while drinking beer
2: Pick and eat crabs
3: Drink beer and talk to friends
4: Pick and eat crabs
5: Drink beer
6: Pick and eat crabs
7: Talk more
8: Drink more beer
9: Pick and eat more crabs
........

Ahhh.......You get the idea....

[DTRMiguel]

I am there for sure count me in. :burnout:

[blackrauder]

Im comin count me in :party:

Im' still in for Saturday and maybe Sunday. My head count is 3 for crabs.

Sorry guys! I am really getting old! Where's the focus factor????:(

Not to be a pain... but, make sure that you let me know as soon as possible because the head-counts are very important to our arrangements during this busy weekend. I need to work with them in advance to make sure we have enough room and proper seating for lunch and dinner. I hope y'all can make it! - C

[O's Fan Rich]

Got it.... make it 4 for dinner.... btw....

[Brutus]

Quit your crying! Seriously, I would slip over to see you big guy. We need to catch up.



With the cost of gas setting all time highs weekly it might be difficult to get the C.A.M. group out to play in OC. This would be the longest distance for any C.A.M gathering. Good luck. :)

[merc]

Quit your crying! Seriously, I would slip over to see you big guy. We need to catch up.

I said that I would see you because I had heard that you were a serious man. A man to be treated with respect but I must say yes to you and I will give you my reasons. It's true, I have a lot of friends in politics. But they wouldn't be so friendly if they knew my business was drag racing instead of car shows which they consider a harmless vice but drag racing, that's a dirty business.

Heck, We can almost make it a private CAMmers tour!! :beer:




Might I suggest a worthy diversion from the OC Cruise....?

I think that a trip up to Milton, Delaware for a brewery tour would be great!

It was recently rated a 'Top Ten' brewery tour in the country.

From the north end of O.C. (@145th street) it is 34 miles/48 minutes per Mapquest.

Let's see if we can get some interest... I think we should plan a CAM meet during this weekend. I will organize a Saturday Car Show for the Marauders at a parking lot in front of a friends restaurant near 130th Street. I think if we start planning now this could be a great time. I may have a conflict due to my new endeavor racing boats (the Championship is in Tennessee that same weekend) but I want to get a guage on whether we can make a great weekend happen.

I also have some contacts for an all-you-can-eat crab night (at a discount) and maybe even some charter fishing on Sunday morning for the members.

Let me know what you guys think. :beer:

UPDATED INFORMATION:

Hey guys... It seems like everyones plans are coming together and that is great! As I stated previously, this weekend in OC will not be a heavily scheduled affair. There are plenty of things to do and I'm sure we will all be busy doing our own things. With that being said, this past weekend I finalized our location for the CAM mini-meet and car display. It will be from 11am-2pm on Saturday October 11th... The location will be 130th Street - Bayside, in the parking-lot section directly behind the fire station and in front of Duffy's Tavern. Matt Bayline, Duffy's owner, has offered to set aside space for us for lunch and supply a trophy and t-shirts for the best in show and two runner-ups as voted by the participants. This will give us some time to catch up and BS as well as have a nice lunch together. Lunch will be at around 12:30pm... Their food is great and Ms. Bev makes the best home-made soups on the shore. This also gives everyone time to participate in the car related festivities elsewhere and we can always make a cruise south together as a show of force...

Our Dinner & Crab Feast will be held at The Crab Shack on 131st - Bayside at around 7pm... Dessert combined with a few drinks and cigars will be at my condo on 135th Street if anyone is interested.
