Since the number of Dutch members have grown substantially I think it is time for us to organize a get together. I was at the 924 cub's get together about a month ago and I remember thinking at that time how great it would be if we did this for 968s.
I think somewhere in August or September on a Saturday or Sunday morning would be good. Please post some dates and possible venues here, and let's see what we can put together. And here is a photo of the 924 get together to tempt you...

Damn I cannot make 29 August..that's when I leave for my Holiday.
I am happy with Sunday 27 September.
The 924 guys had their get together at the AC Restuarant in de Meern....lotsa space, but not the nicest place. Does anybody else know of a good place. I don't mind driving, it gives me an excuse to excercise the 968 [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img]

THe AC restaurant at the Meern is an excellent place. For me no problem at any sundaymorning at 10 o clock for example?

Ok, now we're talking! That looks much better than the parking lot at AC de Meern!
I was also thinking the new Porsche dealership in Amsterdam would be good, not sure when they are opening their doors...or if there will be coffee nearby.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}><!--quotec-->and I guess Johan doesn't want other Porschedrivers to come by ... otherwise he could have posted it on the PorscheForum.nl [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif[/img]<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
[img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif[/img] Not true at all. I am a total Porsche addict...I like, and have nearly owned, them all. I have two reasons for not posting it on PorscheForum.nl:
1) I just thought it would be cool to have more 968's than 911's for a change.
2) And most importantly, my written dutch is only good for short cryptic sentences. Due to this I am little more than a lurker on that forum [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif[/img]
But please feel free to post it there as well, the more 968's and people who like to see lots of them together, the better!

If the group is not too large ( say up to 12-14 persons ), we could do it @ my place in Wijk en Aalburg ; Saterday September 26th suits me just fine ... if no rain we could start in the afternoon and fire up the Bbq ...
Let me know what you think, please ...

I have never really thought of this as an American forum...there really are people from all over the world on here. I like the idea of having it at your place though!

We very much enjoy and appreciate our "International Flair"...
Looking forward to travelling Europe someday and meeting new 968 enthusiasts.
Many pictures please.

Ok, it seems like Sunday the 27th of September is going to be the best date for this. Now we just need to decide if it is going to be the Porsche Dealer in Rotterdam or at Dimma's place.
But my guess is that once we post this on PorscheForum.nl that we will probably exceed 12 people, so Rotterdam is likely going to be the best location.
