    Thanks! I'm a nurse at Dell Seton at UT. I have found a place. I am tentatively picking up a set of KO2's from a Houston member coming to the meet on the 10th so I may be there. I am not sure yet as I am supposed to move in that day to the new place.

    I'll save you a TW sticker, and I'm sure The Chad will hook you up with a Texas Toyota Coalition sticker as well.

    @CaptAmerica










    $5 per vehicle
    to park which goes to a charity/organization (see below). This also gets you a raffle ticket for a Autozone bucket of stuff and things. Additionally, this month, PUPPIES!

    Organization Sponsored: LLS (Leukemia Lymphoma Society)

    From C&C FB page:

    This months show is supporting LLS (Leukemia Lymphoma Society).
    Here is some general information about LLS:
    The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) is the world's largest voluntary health agency dedicated to blood cancer. The LLS mission: Cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families. LLS funds lifesaving blood cancer research around the world and provides free information and support services.
    LLS also holds their annual Light The Night at COTA. Light The Night is the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s annual fundraising walk and an opportunity for Central Texans to pay tribute and bring hope to people battling cancer. Participants walk along a one-mile route carrying illuminated lanterns – white for survivors, red for supporters and gold lanterns in memory of loved ones lost. Austin Light The Night takes place on Saturday, November 18, at Circuit of the Americas. Learn more at www.lightthenight.org/sctx.

    So please clean those cars and come on out to support such a great cause!!



    **As always, it is not expected for anyone to bring anything; i.e. food, drinks, stickers, patches, etc. Anything brought is greatly appreciated, but you are still allowed to partake even if you can't bring anything :cheers:**

    For those who haven't attended before, generally we all pitch in and bring various items for cooking bacon, tacos, bacon, coffee and... uh... bacon:dancingbacon:. It is a community effort and as stated above, you are not expected to bring anything. You are more than welcome to still enjoy a Taco, beverage and enjoy the company of others.

    If you would like to bring something, the general list (not definitive, just spit balling) is:

    Tortillas
    Cheese
    Bacon (lots :dancingbacon:)
    Eggs (also lots)
    Salsa
    Other condiments or snacks or food items
    Water
    Drinks
    Chairs
    Table
    Cooker
    Coffee
    Sugar
    Cups
    Plates

    :taco:Taco's needed eaten in honor of those that can't make it::taco:



    T&T Part Deux: Arrowhead Park (http://www.lvpoa.org/amenity.asp?id=15)

    Chris, how much are the passes so we can pay you back?

    We will be doing a Taco Convoy out of T&T at around 10:00 to head to Arrowhead park in Lago Vista for more food and merriment. Chris (@Texoma ) was gracious enough to pick 25 visitor passes for us in advance. :bowdown: The plan is to park Lakefront, grill, drink, swim, etc..

    As far as beer options, we're looking at BYOB or pitching in on a keg.

    Chad (@ChadsPride ) also suggested something about a Taco Community Trash Pickup at some point to show good community standing. If this is something we do, I'd recommend doing it as one of the first things prior to too much food and drinking.

    As another point, that I'm not worried about, we will obviously need to clean up fully after ourselves as well. But our C&C showing is already great about this. :cheers:

    Chime in for what you'd like to bring for this portion of the day and if you want to attend.

    Arrowhead Park (Rollout of T&T @ 10:00) Food, Tacos, and Merriment

    @Misplaced Nebraskan (Can do some pulled pork if people want that?)

    I talked my fiancé into a Prius last year so she's loving it right now. At least I'll be riding around on government diesel for the next week while my truck sits safely at HQ with a full tank of gas.
