Northwest Meet Info
Northwest Meet Info
Crossfire Owners of the Great Northwest (WA,OR,ID,MT, and BC)
When: The weekend of May 18 through the 20, 2012
Where: Yakima, WA. (Travel to Yakima should be about the same distance and time of 7. 5 hours or less.)
The proposed week-end is tentatively organized as follows:
Friday: Check into hotels in the area (your choice).
Dinner at a local drive-inn around 7:00 PM (time to oggle at everyone's Crossfire’s.) Miner’s Drive-In 2408 So. 1st Street Yakima, WA. Main Street and 1st Street are the same Street, just matters what exit you take. Off Freeway Exit 38.
Saturday: Meet in the morning after a breakfast on your own. Meet at 11:00 AM at the Columbia Crest Winery on SR221. This is off I-82 exit 82. From here move on to the Vintner’s Village –Merlot Drive, which has about six wineries. This is about an hour drive from Yakima, to the city of Prosser. When done with the cellars its back to Yakima, to return to Hotels and to get ready for dinner. Dinner will be at 7:00 PM in Yakima (exit 33) at the Barrel House. The dinner is Dutch, of course, unless we have a Millionaire who wants to buy.
Sunday: Meet for a group Breakfast (TBD) and talk about when the next rally would be planned. .
As a group we decide on becoming a sanction group by CICCI as mentioned in the latest CICCI Newsletter.
Different cities would be proposed for future drives and rallys throughout the Northwest where we would all be willing to drive. Also discussion about getting an emblem for our group similar to what Denver, Texas, and St. Louis have.
If you are interested in meeting new people and havig a good time, contact Kevin Winston at 208-921-0604 or kevinwinston77@hotmail.com. Another note:
In college I use to set up Fun Rally’s if that is something you would be interested in? That is a Road Rally time / Scavenger Hunt for bonus points / Answer Questions (area we are) in secret places.
Re: Northwest Meet Info - Growing Group
I more than likely won't be able to make it to this meet. The wife and I are going to fly to Germany in May and I am not sure how long the trip will be at this stage, or exact dates for that matter, but I probably couldn't swing a long weekend after that trip. Even though it is in Yakima I was seriously considering it until the wife reminded me that we have some business that needs to be attended to.
If I can't make it, please post up a few photos in this thread from the meet if you wouldn't mind.
Thanks for arranging this, sorry I am probably going to miss out this time.

Kevin:
Sounds like you finally got something going up here in the NW. I,m in Friday Harbor. Black SRT6 Roadster. Would love to join you but have long term committment for those dates in May, so can't make it. However, keep me posted for next GTG. If you guys plan another here is a thought. We have a charity event car show up here on the Island in late August. It is August 26 this year. May be a thought for your next GTG, although it is pretty close to the Crossfires Across America in Reno this year. I will try to get there as well as our local show. I put my XF in the show last year. Here is a link to our show. You can just see the back end of my car in one of the pics. It's just in front of the red Viper. Sure be nice to see 6 or 7 XFs in this years pics.
Best Regards
Jim
