This thread is for GT/CS owners in Northern Ca. who may have received an invitation to the Innaugural BBQ and Swim party at our home in Grass Valley, Ca. on August 19th, 2006. If you are planning to attend, and have not RSVPd yet, Please do so by 08-01-06. If you own a GT/CS or HCS and have not received an invitation, and would like to attend, Please send me a private message with your E-Mail address and I will send you one.
Grass Valley is located approximately 45 miles N-E of Sacramento, Ca.
This is not a car show, nor a club. There will be NO judging, so bring your GT/CS or HCS as is. This BBQ is to get to know other GT/CS or HCS owners and have good food and fun times. We look forward to hearing from you, and meeting you. Mike and Robinette Jewell [email protected]

Uh Oh....you've opened up the floodgates, now, Mike!

So far, isn't the RSVP about 15 GT/CSs? That would be the largest concentration of GT/CS Mustangs anywhere on the planet!

(note to self: was it cole slaw, cream puffs or buffalo steaks I was supposed to bring? dang!)

See you all there!! Yup, I'll be there, too! Bring your books!

Paul N.

p.s. I'm bringing my video camera--for the GT/CS Book's DVD (but don't let that make anyone shy from showing up, or bringing your CS. Tell your CS to "come as you are"...OK? )

Party open to all, Not just NoCal folks.

Thank you Donna for inquiring about Socal, or other locals interested in the get together. The invitations were sent out to NoCal folks as we thought most owners would not like to drive so far, but if you want to take a road trip, GT/CS-HCS owners are welcome, as is your GT/CS or HCS. Just let us know you will be attending, and how many. Mike and Robinette.

Due to the response we are getting, and space limitations, this event is open only to GT/CS, HCS owners and their families. If your car is not running, Please feel free to come anyways. This is to get to know each other. Just RSVP with your interest. Mike

I look forward to seeing "the largest concentration of GT/CS Mustangs anywhere on the planet"--this Saturday!

I'm bringing two "GT/CS decorated" cakes, too!; and I'll have some special goodies for attendees, too!

This is going to be a lot of fun! Thanks to Mike and Co., for putting this together!

We "might" park the cars later, in order of VIN to walk by and point out the factory changes over time.

a BIG Thanks to everyone for coming, and for bringing their CS!!

Paul.

TO ALL OF YOU....beyond the realm of Northern California, we WILL be thinking of you...and talking about you...er...in a nice way, of course!! :p

I was talking to Mike about how this party may be an annual event, or a flagship party for others...as well as the beginning of how to plan our BIG drive/event for the 40th Anniv. in 2008!

So...you ALL are with us in spirit...and we'll definately be thinking about you...(i.e. "hey, pass that potato salad...and where's my tri-tip"!!)

Looking forward to meeting all

Hello Donna, I am glad you can make it. We have a confirmed 21 GT/CS mustangs attending. This should be a great event. NOW, lets just hope it goes off without a hitch. Roll with the punches, I.A.O. Improvise, adapt, and overcome. Ha Ha Ha. My wife is stressing bigtime. I have an ambulance on stand by, Hey, Donna, Maybe we could kill to birds with one stone. Bring you ambulance and have your friend drive your baby. Ha Ha.
We are ready to receive. Mike and Robinette.

They are BOTH my babies! I keep trying to figure out a way that I can tow the lil green car with the big red one...
Tell Robinette to stop stressing! It's just a family reunion...long lost relatives and all that stuff. And tell her to put me to work as soon as I get there. I gotta be busy.
Dang....I should bring the red car too... code 3..... hmmmmmm! :grin:
