I know this is the same day as the car show already listed on the Events forum, but I thought I'd toss it up here anyway. I'll more than likely be going to this, as I have a few friends on that board and in that area that I never get to see being from Midland and all. Here's the info:

Where/When?
TIME: 11am
DATE: May 13th
LOCATION: Stoney Creek Metropark [actual location in park still TBD]
What is provided/expected of me?
As with every year, we provide the hamburgers, hot dogs and buns. We ask that everyone pitch in a little bit and bring something. Pop, chips, cookies.. whatever. We've noticed a decline in participation for the past couple BBQ's so I'm pleading with people to please remember that without people bringing a 12 pack of pop, there's nothing to drink.
If you are unable to bring something.. please don't let that deter you from coming. I'm not out in the parking lot watching people to make sure they bring something and I certainly hope no one else is. The main concern is that you show up and have a good time.
Please read this thread and sign up to bring something

Who is welcome?
EVERYONE! And I do mean everyone. I noticed that year after year, it's mainly sport compact guys that show up despite the fact that we have a lot of v8 and truck guys lurking about here. I encourage everyone to come out and have fun. Bring the wife and kids.. we try to keep things family friendly. It's a great day of eating, socializing and some hot cars to stare at as well.
The Raffle
There will be a raffle as usual. Tickets cost $1 and can be bought from our roaming ticket sales people throughout the day or right before the raffle begins. This is our main way of recouping the cost of the BBQ as well as cover some of our costs through the year so we rely on people to participate.
Any businesses interested in providing us with items to raffle are encouraged to PM me. Free advertising in the form of banner ads, vendor access and some serious plugging during the actual raffle are given in return for your generosity.
FAQ
Q. Can I bring beer?
A. We usually discourage this type of activity for a few reasons. First and foremost, we're a gigantic gathering of cars. No one at XceedSpeed condones drinking beer and then driving a car. Secondly, the park rangers are VERY aware of our presence and drive through our gathering constantly throughout the day. The less reason they have to stop, the better.
Q. Can I bring my dog??
A. Of course! We've had plenty of people bring dogs of all sizes. Just make sure you have the pooch on a leash and that it's not going to attack someone's poodle or something
