Update on possible locations for Crystal Cove
This is what I picked up this morning. Put all of this in the rumor category. That said, there appear to be four alternatives to the current Crystal Cove location.
1-Barry Meguiar (of the wax fame / CC regular) had a meeting with Irvine co. (Bren's staffer) about moving it to Newport Center. This was turned down. Barry knows a local congressman who attends CC and has called another meeting this week with the Irvine Co. and the congressman to see if this decision can't be turned around. Irvine Co. does not want to manage this type of event, at all, at any of thier properties.
2- Some resturaunt called "10" near McAurther at the airport. It is the same location as the Sunday show that has been going on for a log time. This gathering is predominately for push'roders. The organizer for this alternative I spoke to directly and he is pushing it pretty hard.
3- Centerpointe (?) -the shopping center at the intersection of Jamboree and 405 near Ruth's Chris / Starbucks. Still under consideration.
4-Ford's P.A.G. (premier automotive group) at the Irvine Spectrum -this is per Glenn's posting earlier.
With all of the discussion this morning that occured it was clear to me that the event will not expire, it will definately land in a new location. Just a matter of where, the consensus was this decision was going to occur before next Saturday so that flyers could be distributed at the last event.
Tom and I are encouraging a large turnout of all BMW's on Oct. 14th. Tom and I will be wearing black. Hope to see you there.
