Our upcoming Cafords Spring Show is quickly arriving and we need a new location to have it!!!
***For those of you familiar with the Union City/Fremont area, we especially need your expertise!!! San Jose as well!***
THESE ARE MY REQUIREMENTS:
~I am looking for a place with a large parking lot fit to hold AT LEAST 300 members along with their cars and a BBQ.
~Somewhere that will not attract unwanted attention from the cops.
~Somewhere we can legally loiter.
AND GUESS WHAT???
The winner will get free food at the show...But JUST you not your friends as well. ![[Razz]](tongue.gif)
Lets hear what you have to say! Remember, the sooner I get a location, the sooner we can meet up, get our grub on, then head out and cruise!

yea, dont think there are any parks around that area that can accomodate 300+ cars ![[Frown]](frown.gif) Here are some possibilities though:
-Lake Elizabeth in Fremont
-Lake Chabot in Castro valley
-Kennedy Park in Hayward/San Lorenzo
-"Pepsi" Park in Union City/Hayward
-Park behind American High School in Fremont
Most of these places will require parking in the street though. There was that one lake off of Calaveras in Milpitas that I remember from a few years back...

The Shoreline Amphitheater parking lot in Mountain View is a HUGE lot (comfortably able to accomodate more than 300 cars). Since the area is a industrial/business complex, there is almost no traffic through there on weekends. Shoreline park is nearby and there's alsn a dog park across the street (if anybody wants to bring their doggy along). Not sure if permission is required for a large gathering.

That is a good spot with a large parking lot but the cop shop is right next door for the folks that want to act like idiots this is not a good thing.

Lake Elizabeth is a real good place. Getting a permit from the city would be the correct way to go about it, than, we don't have to worry about the loitering thing.
As far as the local "boys-in-blue", well, folks that behave themselves don't have anything to worry about. The others, well.....
Another good thing about Lake Elizabeth, or any location that is easily seen from a major road, so we can attract outside folks to look around.
