We will be having a meet and BBQ at Arroyo Burro Beach in the Santa Barbara/Goleta area on Jan 10 - 11th. There should be ample parking there and if we can get people to show up early enough we can mark off some space for the meet.
Here is a brief description of the park and it's amenities and location information:
Park Features: BBQ Grills, Beach Access, Benches or Picnic Tables, Bird Watching, Equestrian Trails, Fishing, Group Picnic Areas, Restaurant or Snacks, Restrooms, Surfing, Swimming.
Location: Arroyo Burro Beach County Park is located 5 miles west of Santa Barbara's city center on Cliff Drive near Hope Ranch. From Highway 101 take Las Positas Road south to Cliff Drive. Turn right and travel 1/2 mile to the park entrance.
Entrance Fee: Free to the public
Map of the Park: http://www.sbparks.org/Scripts/ParksDetail.asp?ParkID=1
As of right now we have no sponsors in this meet but are hoping someone around here could get us some. Here is a list of hotels in the area. I was thinking about the Quality Inn in Santa Barbara for a group or the Ramada probably. Input is welcome. If we decide early we can try to all get into the same hotel.
Quality Inn Santa Barbara
1 King (double occ) $85.00
2 Dbls (double occ) $90.00
1 Qun (double occ) $80.00
1 King AAA Rate (double occ) $76.50

4 Person Suite $129.95
Extendedstaty Santa Barbara (Goleta, CA)
1 Queen Studio (double occ) $114.00
2 Doubles Studio (double occ) $119.00
Please e-mail me at porsche_chic@comcast.net so I can begin a head count of people. Please also let me know how many people in your party, what you plan to contribute to the BBQ, and your preference on hotel (to decide which one we will all try to stay at).
Any assistance in setting up this meet is appreciated. I do not live in the area and I do not have a lot of connections like some of you have.
Thanks

I don't think there are as many of us out here as there are on the east coast.

You're looking at a good 8+ hour drive. It's about 4-5 from where I am normally to Vegas and SB is about 3 hours from me.

Yeah, I would say about 7 hours.

it's only a 4 hour drive. I did Darren's house in 4 hours along w/ getting pulled over.
Me n Deek will be there in January.
The 2.4 is going to be under good behavior, ie: NO RACING TILL FEBRUARY! Certain things are happening that must be attended to. We'll be there and I'll be doing the bench racing.

Dang it! I was in Goleta visiting my aunt and uncle the 19th-21st (this last weekend), to bad I couldn't go later. However on my way down I saw 4 GAGTs all driving together on Hwy 101 (all were 2004s except 1 was a white 99-03) too bad they were going the opposite way. Then a little down the road I saw 2 more next to each other. (Also 99-03 GTs and also going the other way) The first thing I thought was maybe there is some west coast meet.

Loco95GA

The cheaper hotels are outside of Santa Barbara. Me and my wife got a room for $65 in Buellton. Go to Travelocity.com for low rates.
highwayprowlerz
01-04-2004, 02:00 PM
Buellton is about 20 minutes or so outside Santa Barbara. There are several hotels there.

Deek, look it up man. Go to Yahoo.com and go to the Yellow Pages. Or better yet, go to hotesl.com and look for rooms in either SB, Goleta, or Buellton.
Deek00

SpyhunteR
