4ngiefest 2009 - BMW meet in Atlanta for the leukemia and Lymphoma Society
Hi! I'd like to intro myself, and I hope I'm not stepping on any toes here. I just wanted to announce an event 4ngie and I are putting togeter for the 3rd year now. Some of you may have heard of it, but I'd like ot go out on a branch and invite all of you X-series and Z-series owners. I'm reaching out because we have a mainly 3 series following, but this is an ALL BMW meet, so anyone is welcome. I'm even trying to locate some m1 owners and motorcycle groups.
We are currently at around 150 people attending, and some of those are bringing multiple cars. We have everything from 3's, to 5s, to 1s, and even some old school kicks, like a 2002 from Orlando. I'm quoting the following from 4ngie What is 4ngiefest you speak of? 4ngiefest started in 2007 as a casual local area BMW fanatic meet. It expanded through venues such as the online car forum community, and magazine articles. Last year, in association with ClubBimmer.com we drew a crowd of over 300 BMWs and successfully set a record in the Guinness World Record books. Being the 3rd annual 4ngiefest, we are striving to make it appealing to everyone attending. Every year we collect donations and send money to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Through merchandise sales and private donations, 4ngiefest was able to donate nearly $1,300 to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society last year and we plane to exceed that again this year. WHY is it called 4NGIEfest? Well, because I started it, that's why. :4ngie: Actually, it was named after me by a fellow fanatic because we hope to one day be the East Coast version of Bimmerfest.. although we have a long way to go. Also because saying the 3rd Annual Atlanta BMW meet at Stone Mountain Park is just too much to say. I hear this question more than anything else.. :rofl: What's New? Newsfeed - Keep updated! http://4ngiefest.com/news There's a gallery on the site with pics from 4ngiefest 07 & 08. If you'd like to add your own pics, please PM Beingdevious. You can also rate this pics and share them on Myspace or Facebook. We are in the process of designing new shirts which will, hopefully, be cheaper this year. We're also working on some other merchandise such as glasses and decals. We have a couple of confirmed sponsors so far, but we need more. UUC and Tischer have promised to be there, as well as some others. DJ Bebe will be there showing us his skillz AJ will be broadcasting a streaming video for those of you who can't make it. We're supposed to have the entire lot to ourselves this time, so I'm also going to try to organize parking for better photo ops. We are going to do a lap around Stone Mountain as a memorial to Jeremy Smith. It's a very short loop (4 miles, I think) but I hope everyone will participate. We will determine a specific time and post it on the site. 4NGIEfest: 4NGIEfest 09 Stickers Lodging info: I suggest using www.kayak.com or you may want to stay at one of the hotels in the park. Here's a map of Stone Mountain Park. The lot we're using is the Yellow Daisy lot, across from the police station, in the bottom right corner of the map. "Entrance into Stone Mountain Park requires an$15.00 (CASH) one day parking permit per vehicle or an annual parking pass. This permit gives you access to the Park's numerous outdoor adventures for all ages including the public picnic areas, hiking trails, children's playground, walk-up trail and the spectacular Laser Light Show NOT ALL ATTRACTIONS WILL BE OPEN ON THIS DATE.."
