Either day works fine for me, I work Monday to Friday. We should confirm where and when we will meet. Day and time of day.
Where do most of us live? I am on the border of Vancouver and Burnaby, total central so can meet anywhere.

i'm in kits, i'll go take a drive around SB-UBC in the next couple days to scout good picture taking points.

so it looks like it'll most likely be Saturday, is everyone alright with that?

CanXb, 604toaster: does Sunday work for you guys? it doesn't matter to me either way, but if we can get one more car out, then great.

i went and did a brief drive around jericho/SB tonight and i don't know where the concession stand is. there's two places in particular that we could meet, i pin-pointed it on google maps here.

i'm not much of a morning person, and since it sounds like you guys are coming out from burnaby, i'm thinking the earliest i'd like to meet would be 10am. preferably later, but it's totally up to you guys. i'm suggesting meet/drive/then optional lunch?

take care + looking forward to meeting you all. : )

Sunday is fine for me, why don't we confirm then that this will happen on Sunday and why don't we meet at 11:00-11:30am at the first parking lot at Spanish Banks with the concession stand. We can fiquire out where to go from there, Looks like Sunday is going to be nicer than Saturday anyways.
I will keep checking this post if something is to change, otherwise see ya Sunday.

andizbox are you in too?

we should get a confirmed count so that we know how many to expect at the concession stand before we drive anywhere else.

so, so far:

1. tinyhandful
2. CanxB
3. sature
4...andizbox?
5...Maverickjwb?

and we're saying Sunday at 11-11:30 here?
CanxB, is this where you were thinking of?

I wont be able to make it this time, just getting back from holidays. Not sure if I will be in the area at that time. It looks like it will be an awesome day to open the sunroof and cruise around though. I was hoping to be able to get a chance to see the local talent. Good luck on your meet.

Great meeting you today, Monique, Dylan, and Sat.

Monique and Dylan have a great time in France, sounds like you will have a blast!

Sat, we will have to get to together about the windshield hook up

I ran into a BCP xB at Walmart in Queensbrough, His my is Jamie, I sid he should loggin to Scionlife and watch the thread, Next time we will get in a better cruise maybe we can get up the mountain, like Sat suggested, the nice weather is coming!!!!

I think I might print up some drop cards and nicely place them on Scions when I see them. Let's try and build this up.

agreed. i remember going out with a friend to an RSX meet when they first came out and the photos taken were awesome, but purely due to the number of cars in the pictures.

we had a fabulous time too! should definitely go up cypress or some other picturesque windy road when we get back. i'll leave it to you two to scout. you have a month!

here are the pictures:
(sorry to bobby who got eaten up by a big white flash)

*in attendance: sature, CanxB, tinyhandful + 1 "bobby" & 1 "dylan" (missing: 604toaster who couldn't make it on the Sunday...sorry!)



















have a wonderful may!
a bientot!

Great to see pics! Looks like a nice start, especially considering how few Scions are in Canada. :D

I'm sure that later on this summer some of the Scions from South of the Border would enjoy meeting up with you folks in Vancouver.

Take care,
Tom

walking to dinner, i saw my very first BC-plated scion xA. i'm pretty sure it was an Absolutely Red RS 1.0 as it was definitely very, very red. as promised (about trying to get the word out), i did my duty and left a note with the forum's info as well as my email. let's see if they find us!
