 Thinking about starting a gtg in eastern CT | « » 7:30 PM 12-29-2005 | |
|
right now we arent sure on the nights, looking mostly to be saturdays until school gets out ask on the last page when we will be thereBACK AT RIBBITS, every monday night. on rt 6, right near the intersection of 6 and rt 198 in chaplin.
its the place that has been under construction for awhile.
we show for either 7 or 8 read the last page to find out the exact time and let us know to look for you 
the owners are car guys too, so they love seeing all of the dubs in the parking lot
ive been thinking lately about starting a gtg in the eastern part of ct since the kk is over an hour from my house. is there any interest out there? i live in windham (next town over from uconn) and have seen a few people on here from the area but dont know who would be interested
i dont know of a location yet but im sure we can figure out something that will be good for all of us let me know what you think

I know there are some more people from the Putnam area on here. And I think there are some from the Killingly area as well. I tried to get something going when I first got my Jetta but only a few people showed interest. I got fed up and joined Ocean State Dubs. It would be nice to have something local on a regular basis.

Do we want to meet at a restaurant or a mall or some random parking lot? I can think of plenty of places to go, I just don't know if people just want to hang out or actully get a bite to eat.

Yup it was me. I did a double take and said nice car and my wife said that just because it was a nice VW it didn't mean that the driver was a VW enthusiast.

ok since we got the other thread locked what are we thinking for a place to meet, i think the chaplin spot might be pretty good since there wont be as many idiots out that way. where is that place on rt 6? i cant remember seeing it. also the bbq idea at mansfield hollow is a really good plan but it will need to be a little warmer i gotta start looking a little harder for these cars too i didnt realize that many people were around here

Ribbits is the name of the place in Chaplin. It is about a half mile before the intersection of rt 6 and rt 198 if you are coming from Willimantic.
Lets pick a day and time and get a head count.
