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.
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! [ April 11, 2006, 11:45 AM: Message edited by: SpdDevl ]

yea, dont think there are any parks around that area that can accomodate 300+ cars 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.
