Sorry guys, ragingfish won't make it again this year. Already tapped out my time off requests for this quarter. I am going to florida for a week in july, and i had to take some more time at the end of august to go to texas for my brother's wedding. I'll try again next year.
YES!I still visit GenVibe periodically. I have not forgotten about my "original" family over here!

i'd definitly be up for it..but since it's so close to the epic meet..i doubt i'll be there last years meet was fun, met alot of great people..only way i'd come is if something comes up for the epic meet..or gas prices go through the roof..theirs gotta be a certain amount of people to come to these meets..if not then it's pointless to drive 7 hrs to see 5 vibes

Don't think we have one man, we always just do individual reservations...Last year they thought we were part of some wedding party though, they gave us special rates. Until they found out we weren't part of it, then they said no. lol

Many participants were locals and we never really had a big group of overnight people to warrant organizing anything other than standard rates. We picked a good area and hotel and just went with it.

Don't forget to post up here soon if you plan to attend! I will be sending the tentative head count to Dan Tobin Pontiac by the end of July.There is no problem if you don't get on the list, you can still show up! This is just to get a general idea on what type of space we will need to clear out on the lot. Not sure yet, but the Grand Prix group may also be there the same day (as in the past).Edit: confirming head count with Dan Tobin this week.

Confirmed with Dan Tobin, right now the Grand Prix guys have not confirmed so it may just be the Vibe crew this year. Hoped to see a bigger turnout this year (this might be the smallest Ohio meet yet) but we have yet to have a bad time at one of our meets.We'll have our usual dinner and after-meet activities as normal (usually Dave and Busters).

It was a great time even with the lower turnout. Thanks to everybody that went, it was nice seeing familiar faces again. And thanks to Dan Tobin for their continued hospitality. ...Not to mention having numerous 09's available for us to closely examine. Dave & Busters was a blast too... Hope everyone is enjoying your winnings. Here's a few pics:Complete set of pics here.

Great meet again this year! Was nice to get to hang out with some familiar faces. Even with the low turnout... still had fun. Thanks to Dan Tobin for letting us have at meet at his dealership again this year and the burgers were awesome! Good dinner at Applebee's after the meet and I had a blast at Dave and Busters. 5622 tickets can get you a lot of Dave and Busters junk, that is for sure!Already looking forward to next year.
