Many of us were disappointed to learn of the cancellation of this years event due to scheduling conflicts and a late date in the season (May vs April). I got to thinking about those who have attended in years past and the percentage of those who attended who scheduled technical work to be done on that day. My estimate would be about 10 to 15 percent of attendees scheduled work to be performed. With that in mind, that left the remaining attendees who simply desired to gather and talk Miata's while renewing friendships from past years and prior gatherings.
So I decided to ask Bob if he would host a gathering of Miata's on the previously scheduled day of May 5th, at his garage in Clinton, for those that would simply like to get out and celebrate a Miata day, with no technical services being scheduled or performed, outside of Mass State Inspections. There would be no involvement on his part for refreshments or food. BYO. DD right up the street.
He said that would be fine. SO, for those who desire to get together for a few hours to talk about their Miata's, work or mods done over the winter, the invitation is on. Look at it as a mini Mass Miata Day! He also said we could all travel over to Rota's Ice Cream for lunch and desert about 1:00 PM. Considering the proposed lunch time, I thought I'd arrive between 10 & 11 AM. So I'd like to hear who else is "on" for this get together. It has been a long, tortuous winter and I'm ready to re-connect. Who is coming?
And Bob has offered the lift to anyone that wants to do a small job requiring that sort of thing...just no techs available to assist...he will be doing a solo that day
