The MEGA MEET will be back at the Woodbridge VDOT lot at the intersection of I95 and Rt123 on October 1st from 7:30pm to 11:00pm. Instead of asking for a $1.00 to get in, we will be asking for 1 non-perishable food item per person that we will be donating to the Fredericksburg Food Bank for the victims of Hurricane Katrina. The Fredericksburg Food Bank staff will be at the lot with their truck to collect the items during this meet. Please feel free to bring more than one non-perishable food item if you would like because every little bit helps. But please understand that the Fredericksburg Food Bank can only accept non-perishable items. If you forget to bring an item or just don't want to, a $1 donation is still being accepted to get into the lot. Our goal is to show how much the youth/car enthusiast groups in the Mid Atlantic Region care for others around us. Lets make it a huge meet by passing the word along so that we can collect a lot of items for the victims of Hurricane Katrina.

Please feel free to visit us http://www.megameet.org for more info and directions to the MEGA MEET lot.

Thanks from the Mega Meet Management

Also, if you bring additional items to the MEGA MEET (a total of 5 or more) you will get 1 free raffle ticket.

Food prices will be as follows....

(1) Hotdog and (1) Soda for $1.00

So for $1.00 you get a hotdog and a soda but not either or. If you do not want one or the other give it to someone. You will not find a better price anywhere else. Also starting this month, all raffle tickets are now only a $1.00 each, or $15.00 for 20 tickets. All the money made from the sale of the raffle tickets and food sales are going to be donated to the Red Cross. I hope that we can have a great showing and collect a lot of food and money for the victims of hurricane Katrina.

The Mid Atlantic MEGA MEET is tonight! Just a heads up, you might want to bring a coat for the latter part of the night. The weather man says it might drop down into the 50's around 10pm. Don't forget to bring non-perishable food items.

Last night was one of the largest MEGA MEETS the Mid Atlantic region has seen and it was a blast! It was awesome to see the support that everyone showed for the MEGA MEET by donating all the non-perishable items and money for the hurricane victims. I don't think the Fredericksburg Food Bank was expecting to receive that much.....they actually had to leave early because the box moving truck was completely full! All the extra items were piled into our own vehicles and will be dropped off later this week. After paying for the officers, pulling out money for the raffle grand prize and other small costs that come with organizing the MEGA MEET....almost $500 will be donated to the American Red Cross. A BIG thanks to everyone who attended the meet last night and made a donation of some sort and to the MEGA MEET sponsors for all the donated raffle prizes and support you give us. The pictures will be uploaded later on this week at http://www.megameet.org and don't forget about the last MEGA MEET for the 2005 season on November 5th.
