OMC Santa Barbara Shrimp Run

We are having the "Shirmp Run" again this year 2009. We will meet at Denny's in Woodland Hills, then head up Topanga Canyon and over the mountains to the ocean, then up the coast to Santa Barbara's Stearn Wharf Pier to have a lobster shirmp and or crab feast at one of 3 great restaurants there.

When: 8AM to 8:45 AM Saturday April 18th 2009
Where: Denny's 22027 Burbank Blvd Woodland Hills Ca
818 884 6952

Denny's is off the 101 Topanga Canyon Blvd exit then head north, turn left
on Burbank Blvd and you are there.
We will depart from Denny's at 9 AM SHARP so do not come late

If you miss us then catch up at the Rock Store on Mulholland Drive
My cell phone is 760 497 5360 if there is service in the mountains
call me if you get lost

All the best
Come with a full tank of gas a positive mental attitude a good appetite and at least $20.00 - $30.00 for lunch.

Also RADAR ....

Yes Otto please repair the words to SHRIMPS

So far it is The Knox's, the Hoffmann's Kathy and I and maybe the
Martinez family coming from San Diego county.
Hope the Orange La and Ventura Counties also make the run.
Can't wait to bite into some shirmps

Well it is getting close to the event and i find myself getting more and more excited everyday, the anticipation is killing me. Unfortunately however my opel gt was involved in a crash, and i dont know if it will be ready by the time of the event. The body work is all done and i just got the approval of the insurance company today so I am keeping my fingers crossed that it is ready by the event but I just dont know, because it still needs a suspension rebuild. Anyway my question is if i dont have my opel by the time of the cruise, can i take my harley or maybe ride with another person? Also i would like to know how many people are going on this cruise because i am trying to convince my dad to let me a have a little bbq at my house for when we get back, So i would have to know how many people are planning on attending so I can tell my father and see what he says.

Hard to say who will show up the word is out the time and place is set the people will show and whoever that is we will have a great time
Not sure if having a BBQ with the OMC club at your house will work as we will be stuffed from the Lobster Crab and shrimp from lunch time and everyone may not be heading back to Woodland Hills from SB, but it sure was a great jesture on your part to invite us all. I am thinking we could have between 10 -20 cars but maybe less?? Never know until the day of an event who shows up.
Hope all goes well for your GT repairs and you can make it too

Jim, you have a valid point that everyone may not be comming back to the Woodland Hills area after the run, and you are also right that we will all probably be stuffed from the shrimp. I guess that means that i will not have a bbq at my house, because in this care there are just to many variables it seems. But maybe when it gets a little further into summer, I can host somthing, now that i know the opel club is willing to come out this way.

Due to health problems Kathy and I will not be attending

Just so everyone who was planning to meet up with us knows.
I regretfully must inform you all that Kathy has a herniated disk and can not make the fun run to Santa Barbara. I need to care for her so I will not be able to come either

If you meet at the Denny's please go and have fun
All the details are in the OMC Blitz with a map. Moby Dicks has great food so enjoy the day, wish we were able to come.
Hopefully next time

I just saw this thread! Not that it would have mattered. My car is in the bodyshop and I'm working this weekend.

I would love to see some pics. It would have been nice to see fellow Opelers.

do not think anyone showed up

Manny and Rick

No pics because no shows

That is what I am thinking

The Blitz came out just a week or less before the event and
gave OMC members little advanced notice
I emailed Classic Opel Group on Yahoo Opelers on yahoo posted here on
OpelGT.com several times and got very little response, and commitment from the Opel community

So maybe OMC people will come to Escondido Deer Park Winery for the picnic
IF we can get that site again for August
I will look into it asap
