Here's another excuse to drive your Jaguar, and meet other Jag enthusiasts!

We had a good response to our first-ever Pride of Jaguars event at Fair Lakes, back on May 19th. We're doing it again, and hope to have a great turnout of Jaguar cars at A Pride of Jaguars II (APOJ II).

We've picked Sunday, September 22 as the date, and will hold it again at the East Market At Fair Lakes shopping center, from 8:00AM to 10:00AM. This purpose of this special Jaguar event, which runs alongside the weekly Sunday Cars & Coffee in the Dick's Sporting Goods & Kohl's parking lot, is to bring together people who love Jaguar cars, all models.

Please RSVP to me, so I know approximately how many spaces to reserve. I am sure we will have a good time! We will once again have an optional brunch nearby afterwards, and I hope to have some surprises in store for attendees.

East Market at Fair Lakes, VA is about a 5 minute drive from the intersection of 66 & 50 in Fairfax, VA. We hold the Cars & Coffee events in front of the Starbucks in the East Market at Fair Lakes shopping center - there's also a Kohl's and a Dick's Sporting Goods in the complex. You can use your Nav system or MapQuest this parking lot, using the address for Kohl's -

Please forward to your Jaguar friends - we hope to see you there!

Here is a shot of some of the cars at our last event, back in May:

 

Fantastic Bob, thanks for the heads up on this.....

I suggest that ALL / ANY interested party post into this thread and you keep a tally, excel spreadsheet or similar to show how many members / cars are likely to attend.

This way it will constantly BUMP the thread keeping it live AND hopefully generate more interest.

I may look at doing a braodcast to all members in your region shortly so ALL are aware.
I'm hoping to get some forum decals out to you as you know! The forum banner is unfortunately out for another meet on the exact same day so is unavailable......real shame.

Anything else I or the mod team can do to help, you only have to ask

Good luck

 

Thanks, Jim. I appreciate all this forum does (and you mods do) for Jaguar enthusiasts.

I will definitely keep a running tally of who is showing up, and post it, so we know how we are progressing. My mail list is expanding, and I welcome any Jag owners (or Jaguar enthusiasts) to send me your email address, so I can keep you aware of these events - my email address is below.

Prior to owning a Jaguar, I have done this for another marque, and found that twice a year is about as many times as I want to do this, to keep it special.

Bob, count me in with '12 XFR.

 

I will be unable to attend. I hope the turnout is even better than last time.

I'll be at the next one in 2014!

 

A broadcast about this event has been sent to members as follows......

VA - 626
DC - 56

Hopefully that may get some interest going for you!


I've also requested forum decals be sent to your home address Bob for use on the day

Thanks

 

Jim, you may consider sending it to Maryland members as well. Also possibly WV, if we have any.

 

We plan to attend!

 

I'll be there.

 

Bob,
We will be up from Chesapeake for the gathering! Thanks for putting this together.
Jack & Becky

 

All:

I'll do everything I can to make sure that A Pride of Jaguars II is an event worth attending!

--Bob Collum

 

BUMP.....lets keep this live.

 

I'll attend. 2011 XKR Convertible

 

I'll try to make it, but Sunday at 8AM will be metabolically challenging.

 

I will also try to be there. But like Xeno, and the fact that I'm coming from close to Richmond, it will be challenging. But it's on the calendar.

Thanks.

A reminder - we are less than 4 weeks away from the Jaguar gathering at Fair Lakes. I have 16 confirmed attendees, so far. I expect we will be hearing from more people in the next couple of weeks. Rosenthal Jaguar will send over a car or two, as well.

I expect that weather will be great, and the turnout excellent. Come on out! (Even if your Jaguar is not running at the moment.)

Please RSVP to me, Robert(underscore)Collum(at)Hotmail(dot)com.

Thanks,

Bob Collum
