    CARBONFEST '08

    Sunday, August 17th 2008
    1pm to 6pm
    111 Glenn Way, Suite 5
    San Carlos, CA 94070

    MAcarbon is having it's first annual "CARBON FEST" open house. Stop by to check out our products, meet the crew (John, Andre, and Lane) at MAcarbon, and talk shop with other car enthusiasts. Free BBQ, door prizes, and a charity raffle.

    We've timed the "CARBON FEST" to coincide with the Monterey Historics weekend. If you are on your way out of town (we are 15 minutes from San Francisco Airport and half hour from the San Jose Airport) or have overdosed on the classic stuff, end your weekend right with one final event.

    If you can't make it, be sure to stop by our booth at Concorso Italiano and say hello!

    If you know you can make it, shoot me an email or just respond to this thread saying you'll be here.

    Thanks,
    Lane

    Yes the 17th is the weekend of the historics. We figured by Sunday, most people would have already done Concorso, the Auctions, Saturday's races and maybe Pebble. By Sunday, people are either on their way home, on their way to the airport, are did not go to Monterey for that day. We also figured there was a chance some of our customers from other areas or overseas might be in town. And if no one shows up, we'll just have to drink a few more beers each!

    I think I will be in town and I may swing by after I attend my duties at church.
    Pardon the Italian or English monkey costume suit in advance.

    Monkey suits are welcome. Just not birthday suits.

    We still have that set of mirrors here for you Tuan.

    Please bring a few bucks for the charity raffle. Although items and charity are still TBD!

    Hi All,

    We've finalized the items we have for our charity raffle at the open house. The charity will be the local schools in San Carlos, CA - our home town. For more info, please take a look at their website. www.scef.us

    We would like to thank the following friends of MAcarbon for helping us out with this endeavor!
    • $50 Gift Certificate from Silicon Valley Auto Group Lamborghini (www.siliconvalleyautogroup.com)
    • $50 Gift Certificate from Carlesen Porsche (www.carlsenporsche.com)
    • Premium Ferrari Calendars from Silicon Valley Ferrari (www.ferrarisiliconvalley.com)
    • $150 Gift Certificate from The Dent Wizard, paint-less dent removal in the SF Bay Area
    • Detailing products package from Detailing Dynamics (www.detailingdynamics.com)
    • Free installation for up to two hours of MAcarbon products (www.macarbon.com)
    • 1 Set of MAcarbon carbon fiber drink coasters (www.macarbon.com)
    • 2 Tickets with Pit passes(!) to the 2008 Indy Car Sonoma Grand Prix donated by 2004 Indy Car Champion Tony Kanaan.

    Visitors to the open house will be able to pick which prize they are trying to win. The drawing will be at 5:30PM. You do not need to be present at the time of the drawing to win. All proceeds will go to San Carlos schools. No employees, family members, or dealers of MAcarbon are allowed to enter. So hopefully we’ll have lots of interested Fchater’s show up and help us raise some money for the kids!


    URWTDRM, you are more than welcome - even in your birthday suit - if you put some bucks into the raffle!

    It was pleasure to attend and met you guys.

    Your carbon work is exceptional. I have seen and bought a lot of it over decade.

    I am sure everyone thanks you for the bar-be-que.

    It was good way to kick a few hours with some friends.

    Chow,

    Brent
