Ya! Drive through type one? Have to drive around a fence to the back of it or something like that? Crowchild or something like that?

You Calgary boys just need to say the word on where to meet (at a car wash) and we’ll meet you there at like 5:30pm!!

Charles, you’re more than welcome to come down with us. We have 9 rooms at the Marriott.

The one on horton road I saw your car at this weekend?

If so, that’s my favorite car wash… 2 min / $1 isn’t bad at all.

Actually it’s kinda far from the UofC, probably about 15 min south of it. I may stop there on the way to meet you guys.

ya you guys can find somewhere up north to wash, but i like the idea of a cruise together to a car wash, and take over the entire place with our cars… :cheer:  
so what if somone in calgary (maybe me) met you somewhere up north? and you follow that person down? its pretty easy

ya, its just off crowchild. its the closest one to the U of C. but if you guys wanna go for that free wash its all cool. But if its the on that I suggested I will be there at 5:30, I need to wash the car. but if the cars are to low you have to go through the exit cause there is a killer speed bump where you enter the wash. well figure it out cause I would love to take pictures and “document” the whole weekend for a project I am doing.

I think the easiest thing would be to meet at that carwash nearest to the UofC: the one that I was thinking of. Anyone know the address for it? Or can anyone find it out for me, so that I can let all the other people know where to meet?

brentwood coin car wash  
3740 brentwood road NW

thats the closest one, its the one I am talking about.

the best way to get there is when your coming into calgary is:

take the off ramp onto country hill blvd all the way to shagganapi trail (turn left there) than that should take you all the way to crowchild. but don’t go on crowchild, there are 2 lanes and you want to stay in the right lane and it will bring you to another set of lights. go straight through the lights and it will bring you to your next set where you can go straight and it will bring you onto crowchild. but you want to turn left there and you will go under a bridge and at the next set take a right than follow that road past the co-op and when you reach madison’s turn left there. than you should see the car wash as you pass through the messed up stop sign and kilkenny is right behind it.

than its less than a 2 min drive if you have green lights all the way.

I think its easier to do

Country hills west  
left on shagannapi  
left on john laurie  
right on Brisebois dr  
left on brentwood rd then its just up the road a bit

i like road names instead of “second left, third right…”

Remember, we are coming from downtown Calgary, cause we are going to the hotel to check in first.

So from Downtown Calgary, we are going to head west on 6th ave SW which will turn into Bow Trail SW. Get off onto Crowchild Northbound. Head north until the Charleswood Drive exit and exit on it; but go straight through the intersection (32ave) and it turns into Brentwood Road NW. The car wash is on 37ave and on the right hand side.

**Everyone meet there at 5:30pm!!!**

I repeat: 5:30pm
