Several years back when I bought my car I was amazed at the show of love and friendship between the owners. As time passed I saw many of the owners buy new cars and people just sort of disappear. However to even it all out new people would show up and the most of the old people stuck around. I don't ever expect to get the good ol' Scionlife Mid-a BBQ's back but I do still want to get everyone together.

Some of the old SL BBQ crew are still very active in the community and we have all been talking about doing a non sponsored BBQ like it used to be. We don't expect a large turn out hell we don't really care either way. We just want to have a good time. As some people know the Mid-a BBQ started out with 6 people in 2003 by 2006 over 120+ people from several different states came together to have a good time.

Honestly I know the economy sucks and gas prices are high and blah blah blah... If you can help make this happen cool, if not don't say a word.

So right now all we really have is an idea and several possible locations. The original BBQ's were at Black Hills Regional park in Germantown, MD. We are thinkingabout this location again just because it is familiar. We have scouted a few other locations as well.

As more information becomes available I or someone else will continue this post. Any thing helpful to get the ball rolling is great as well. Cheers.

Oh if anyone is wondering about the 'Tire Shine BBQ'... The first Mid-A BBQ was a bumble f#$k long story short supplies weren't of the highest importance and there was no lighter fluid... well except tire shine. I'm sure you get the idea now. lol :D

 

What's funny is that the person that used tire shine sold his xB, bought a different car and now has a new xB...

You can put out the word at the 355 Scion Car Show. After that is over, you guys will have a lot more time to plan the BBQ...
