Hello CVC!
Sorry for posting this thread so late in the week. The club is having their 2015 Vehicle Safety Inspection this Saturday and we'd like all members who plan to go wheel'n show up to get safety certified!
Location & Time
Location: Mooney Grove Park
Time: 9am
Park Entrance Fee: $6/truck
Address: 27000 S. Mooney Blvd, Visalia, CA, 93277
Google Map: https://goo.gl/maps/NDZPe
Park Website: http://www.visitvisalia.org/member/mooney-grove-park/515716/
(Park Hours: 8am - 7pm)
Location within the Park
First, take a look at the Park Map (click here).
As you can see there are 19 arbors where we can meet. The reservation deadline is today (Wed) at 5pm. There is a cost to reserve which ranges from $45 to $145 (one day/flat rate). I called the park yesterday and just over half of these are reserved. I got a list of the available arbors and called again today before typing this sentence and the list has not changed. Here are the current available arbors: 3 ($120), 5 ($45), 8 ($45), 10 ($70), 11 ($70), 15 ($70), 16 ($70), and 17 ($70). I asked if they expect all arbors to fill up in the remaining 4 hrs and they said it's very unlikely (but did mention that Sundays are far less busy -- note for future events).
Any unreserved arbors are a no-price, first-come-first-serve. I am the type of person who would choose to save $ and just show up. But looking at the selection, arbors 5 and 8 are only $45 and appear to have a lot of road parking as well as close proximity to restrooms. So if it's within the budget then let me know and I'll get one of these two reserved before 5pm.
I've never been to this park before and am basing my findings off of Google Satellite View. If anyone has any experience or tips to add for this decision then we are all ears!
BBQ Lunch
We are planning a BBQ Lunch. Each arbor has a BBQ pit. I asked if we may bring our own BBQ and she said that is perfectly fine. As I'm not that much of a carnivore, can someone help me in coordinating the BBQ please? I would greatly appreciate it! Otherwise I'll just bring a ton of AWESOME vegetables to BBQ and you guys can become healthy and good spirited with me
I have more to post but need to get this info up and also have another meeting I need to get to. So I will be back in a bit to post some more.
Regards,
BigMike
