Here are the pros and cons and I would appreciate comments:
1. There are numerous car shows in the area on Oct 13th and Chuck-A-Burger, a well known cruising landmark, could be very, very busy in the morning or perhaps it won't be busy at all in the morning. Most of the Chuck-A-Burger activities will be relocated to the corner of I-70 and Cave Springs for the EPC Classic Carfest (Car Show) which is sponsored by EPC and Chuck-A-Burger.
2. Alternatively, we could meet in Fox Hill Park (as we did for March Meet) again, particularly, if we have a very low attendance. Fox Hill Park has restroom facilities, picnic tables, and would certainly be less busy and quieter.
Per the Chuck-A-Burger Site:
"It's time to hit one of the best outdoor charity Car & Motorcycle events of the year! It's the EPC Classic Carfest in St. Charles, at the corners of I-70 and Cave Springs! Chuck A Burger will be there serving up the grub and hopes that you'll attend to raise awareness and funds for The Center For Autism Education! Check out the EPC Classic Carfest Website for more details - it's a show that we truly love attending and you should not miss it."
Option 2 incorporates the Car Show ...
1. We seem to always be doing racing at our meets ... this is a chance to do something different but related - AND VERY LOW BUDGET.
2. EPC Classic Carfest display starts at noon with judging at 4pm
Please ... feedback required.
