I said 2 way radio because everyone can chime in if they wanted. Not everyone is going to have everyone's number. It would have to be one big conference call. They are pretty cheap too! I'll have to go find my Motorola now.

If it is Saturday, then it would have to be early to mid afternoon for me.

Sunday 8/3 is cool with me as well.

Around Quincy (cause it was mentioned).

South Shore Plaze has some huge parking lots out in the back behind where Lord and Taylors used to be. They usually never get filled. However, mall security frown on congregations.

There is Houghton's Pond in Milton/Randolph/Canton. It is right off Rt. 95/128. Keep in mind this is a popular swimming hole/picnic area and the parking lots may be packed on either day.

Quincy has some parking areas along Wollaston beach but again, summer and beach = cars.

If we are talking 20 cars or less, then there is a parking lot at Merrymount Park (intersection of Merrymount Parkway and Hancock St) that my suit our needs.

I think a cruise down to the cape on Saturday would be great along with dinner or something. I hate just park your car kind of meets.

you know guys on the subject of a cruise to newport, there's a ****ton of places with decent parking around RI....i mean the beaches and stuff, or there's downtown prov, couple of big parks, i just worry about newport because it's kinda small so it depends on how many cars we put together i guess. i'll do some looking around today and scout some possible locations. I'm all for the cape meet, just with school i doubt id be able to go, but if you fellas want to cruise down to RI at some point too then lets do it for sure

We can all meet up somewhere... cruise down to Newport and have lunch at Castle Hill. They have private parking but reservations need to be made.

Dress code would be business casual for this place. Excellent view!

idk about you guys, but personally i want to just get as much exposure for us as possible haha there have been a bunch of vw cruises through RI while they headed down to waterfest and i think it's time we show them what a real cruise should look like. if we can find a place to end, for dinner or whatever like you guys said, me and RI-Lex know a few places that various car clubs usually head to for cruises. We just have to find good weather, good food, and a good place for people to see us haha
