Date: SATURDAY AUGUST 19
Location: 1450 United Boulevard, Coquitlam, BC (Tim Hortons Parking lot)
Time: 11am-1pm
Round 6
I like Volvo's. So do you. Lets get together and look at some. The last meet was great. Plenty of cars. Lets end the summer off with our biggest meet yet. Tell your friends. The black 740 in the photo won best in show last time, but the voting was very close. This time the owners of the nominated cars will have a few minutes to tell the crowd about their car before we vote. That was a nice natural addition to last time, so lets make it part of the voting process
PRIZES
The best in show category and raffle are always fun, so lets do that again!
Raffle ticket rules:
One dollar per ticket (unlimited tickets per person). No Volvo Required.
We will have two draws...
First prize will get all the money from the raffle tickets or $100 (whichever is greater).
Second prize will get the lesser of the two cash amounts.
"Best in show"
I love the idea of having a best in show category as well so here are the rules: Once we gather near the end of the meet to do the raffle I will open up the floor for nominations. You don't have to nominate a car, but if you do, you will only get to nominate one. You cannot nominate your own. After the nominations, the owners of nominated cars will be given an opportunity to tell the crowd a little bit about their car. We will then vote on all the nominated cars by a show of hands. The car that gets the most votes will be the winner. The prize for best in show will be $50. Nothing serious, just some fun to wrap things up at the end of the meet.
Things to note: (copied from the original meet thread back in feb.2022)**This location was chosen because in my estimation there are an even number of enthusiasts in the Surrey/Langley area as there are in the Vancouver area. This will be central enough so everyone can easily make their way. If this location makes no sense for future events we can discuss it on the day and choose a better location for the next one.**Buy coffee! The row of stalls at the back of the parking lot should be more than sufficient as it is normally empty, even on a sunday afternoon. That being said however, I encourage everyone to buy something from tim hortons upon arrival. I am hoping to avoid any type of kerfuffle from the business. If for some reason we are asked to leave, the back of the home depot parking lot(near the starbucks) is always completely empty and can act as our backup location. This home depot is located two blocks east of the tim hortons, on united blvd.
**Bring what you have!
Also, if you are currently volvo-less, come anyway!!
If updates are necessary or things change I will edit this post.
I hope to see you all there.
