Event: 1st CarWale Forum National Meet
Venue: Kihim, Alibaug, Near Mumbai
Date: 19th-20th Dec 2009
Dress Code: Smart casuals/casuals
Invitation Type: Exclusive to CarWale Forum members. Inviting friends not allowed unless they too are active on the forum.
Eligibility: Any forum member can join. New members are requested to get familiar with the forum before showing interest.

The Plan: We all will gather at CarWale office in Vashi, Navi Mumbai at 09:30AM on 19th Dec 2009. I will give you guys quick walk around of the office (it's a small office anyway), will have tea/coffee and then will leave to Alibaug at 10:30AM sharp. The idea of having the starting time this late is to ensure that everybody joins in, even those who are coming from outside of Mumbai and will reach only on 19th morning. We will arrange for suitable lodging/boarding for those who arrive on 18th Dec i.e. Friday evening.

We will drive down to the meet venue (those are coming by public transports, don't worry, we will have enough cars to accommodate everyone). There is a good snacks (desi) center on the way (Gurukripa or something. Amazing Vada Pao/Poha/Chai) at Panvel. We will stop by for 20 mins for snacks/breakfast. We will reach Kihim at around 1PM. Our event organizer will organize for a private bunglow (fairly large to accommodate all of us) with exclusive beach for us. We will have lunch, fun, dinner and fun before closing the day down. Next morning, we will start the day with tea/coffee and breakfast and will leave by 10AM and reach Vashi back at around 1PM. We will dismantle soon after.

The fun activities will include a few sports/games, discussions on various forum threads, community name finalizing etc. I am trying for a fun activity related to cars, I am sure 95% of you haven't experienced it before. But it's a secret as of now, if I work it out you will get to know only at Kihim, if it doesn't work out, you will never know. ;-)

Last date of participation confirmation is 15th November 2009.

Look forward to see you all at 19th Dec Morning. Smile

This thread will remain closed. Discussion is going on here.

An important update. I was there at the meet venue for last two days and I must say I loved it. The guy owning the bunglow has organized/helped adventures in several reality shows including MTV Roadies and Dadarigi (not sure on what channel). At the bunglow itself, there are mini-adventure stuff (rappeling, Burma bridge, Leap of faith etc) available. But considering the fact that we have limited time and a lot to discuss, I am opting for only one or two. The booking has been made for the decided date.

A small word of caution for our female members, the place (accommodation/food/activities) is not luxurious by any means and you have to get prepared for a few adjustments. It's clean, hygienic and spacious but it's designed for teams and not individuals hence privacy, comfort, luxury are forbidden keywords. But it's a fun place for sure.
