UPDATE: LOCATION CHANGE for Thurs. 6/2 Dedham, MA GTG. KK is OUT. Showcase Cimema parking lot is IN.
<b>Date: Thursday, June 2nd</b>
<b>Time: 5:30PM - 8:00PM (or whenever)</b>
<b>NEW Location: Showcase Cimemas Parking Lot, just off of Route 1 in Dedham, MA</b>
Hey all. The meeting place for Thursday's GTG has been changed. Sorry for the last minute change but since we are expecting a large turnout I am concerned that if potentially 50+ cars come out that we'll choke out Krispy Kreme's limited parking lot.
My first thought was that we could have some cars park at the KK while others could park in the lot next door (former Office Max and PetCo parking lot), however after driving by this lot this afternoon I saw that the lot is not in very good shape. There are several large piles of gravel and broken up asphalt on the lot not to mention that it appears as if the lot has not been cleaned since winter so a large area is still covered by sand and debris left over from plowing. Needless to say the limited number of spaces that KK has plus the poor condition of the lot next to it has led to my decision to change the venue.
The Showcase Cinemas in Dedham has an enourmous parking lot. I checked it out today and I think we should meet in rear of the lot in section "D1". This area is a few hundred feet from the actual cinema building so we won't be in the way of movie traffic.
Directions to the Showcase Cinema lot are very similar to those of getting to KK.

From 128 you still will be taking Exit 15 A or B depending on which direction you are coming from. From the exit ramp go to the first traffic light and TURN RIGHT on to Elm Street. The Showcase Cinemas will be on your left and the FOX 25 TV station building will be on your right. Follow Elm Street a few hundered feet and TURN LEFT at the sign marked SHOWCASE CINEMA PARKING. Then follow the parking road and head towards the large Wireless Phone Tower located at the back left portion of the lot. Look for the area marked "D1" on the light post and that is where we'll be.

Sorry again for the late change but after seeing the condition of the Petco lot next to KK and KK's limited number of spaces I think it is best that the location be changed. I think we'll all be happier that we won't be in the way of KK's hungry customers and parking our clean cars next to mounds of dirt, gravel and asphalt.
Also, here is the current attendee list. Please check to see if you are on it and if not let me know ASAP. If you are unable to attend please let me know that as well.
Looking forward to seeing you all Thursday night. Weather looks good so it should be a great GTG.

sorry, i won't be making it....
as you may or may not know, i'm currently audi-less, and i'm enjoying my 1976 bmw 2002 - i definitely like not worrying about my car being vandalized or having my headlights stolen or anything...
but anyway, i am going to the sox game on thursday and have a rehearsal afterwards, so i won't be at the GTG... i guess i'll be passing up the award for the 'non-audi collectable' category...
have fun all
