I am excited to let you know about our 3rd annual Acura Meet in Kansas City, Sunday, June 6th, 2010 at 12 noon at Jay Wolfe Acura.

THIS IS A NATIONAL ACURA MEET THAT IS SANCTIONED BY ACURAZINE!

Jay Wolfe Acura will be clearing out their entire front lot for us to park our cars for display, they'll be cooking lunch for everyone that attends. Last year, we had burgers, brats, chips and soft drinks. We will be again awarding trophies, plaques and certificate again this year for various car categories. Plus, Jay Wolfe Acura will have discount coupons for all attendees that will be redeemable for parts and/or service as well. This is a free event for all participants.

We are also working on having various vendors exhibiting at the event. Sirius/XM has already committed to exhibit. Jay Wolfe Acura will also have various parts available for sale for your car. We will possibly have AcuraZine stickers to hand out to participating cars.


Sunday, June 6th, 2010
Time: 12 Noon
Place: Jay Wolfe Acura-Kansas City, Mo., 1029 West 103rd Street, K.C., MO 64114 (Between State Line Road and Wornall Road)

Where to stay while in Kansas City: Our host hotel is the Wyndham Garden Hotel at 7000 West 108th Street Overland Park, KS 66211 - (913) 383-2550. (The hotel is approximately 7 minutes away from the dealership). http://kansas.city.hotelguide.net/data/h100071.htm

Our rate for the National Acura event is $59 per night. When making your reservation, tell them you are with AcuraZine and Jay Wolfe Acura, which should get you that rate.

What's going on in KC that weekend?
--If you're coming in early for our Sunday event, There's lots to do!
--Kansas City Royals are playing the Detroit Tigers that Friday and Saturday night (June 4th & 5th) at newly renovated Royals/Kaufman Stadium.
--Kansas City has a brand new restaurant/bar/social gathering area called the Power & Light District. This is in downtown KC, right next to the new Sprint Center. We will probably be organizing a get-together at the P&L District for Saturday night, which will include dinner and partying.
--Country Club Plaza is in central Kansas City. The Plaza is a beautiful outdoor shopping district with an abundance of top flight stores and restaurants. It is THE place to shop and eat!
--Styx, Foreinger and Kansas in concert on Thursday, June 3rd.

SATURDAY NIGHT CRUISE AND NIGHT-OUT

Here is the link (I hope) for the cruise route we'll be taking on Saturday night:

http://www.mapquest.com/mq/5-Nm*ZVdn8UPHG


I don't use MapQuest very often because I have Nav in my Type S. But I will bring copies of this map along with the directions Saturday night for everyone.

We will meet at the Berbiglia Liquor Store (directly acorss the street from Jay Wolfe Acura) at 6:30PM on Saturday, June 5th. By the time everyone arrives, I thought we would leave as soon as possible and cruise through Kansas City. This is a beautiful route, which takes us down a beautiful parkway (Ward Parkway), throught the ritsy shopping district (the Coutry Club Plaza) it will take us down to the Power & Light District/Sprint Center in Downtown Kansas City, Missouri.

Once we park, we will meet up outside the Sprint Center/College Basketball Experience. At that point, we will walk across the street to the Power & Light District for dinner, drinking and an overall great time!

The P&L District has multiple restaurants and bars. Plus a HUGE open stage area for bands, etc. If there is no band playing, they always have a DJ blasting out tunes. This is an enormous open area where everyone can dance, mingle and party. It's always a great time and a terrific party!


If you have any questions, you can call me on my mobile phone at 913-461-8073.
