View Full Version : 2014 Bear Mountain Meet - Saturday, 18th October 2014 - Mahwah, NJ


ivyboy07-07-2014, 03:54 PMMARK YOUR CALENDARS! The 18th Annual Joe Pearlstein Memorial Bear Mountain Meet to benefit the American Cancer Society will be held on Saturday, October 18th 2014, starting at 9am SHARP. The starting point will be the Sheraton Crossroads Hotel in Mahwah, NJ. This is a FREE event -- consisting of a ~90 mile scenic drive through Harriman State Park and Storm King State Park, a show & shine event with trophies and prizes, and the opportunity to meet plenty of other Toyota MR2 / Celica AllTrac owners and fans.

PLEASE SIGN UP ON THE NORTHEAST USA MR2 OWNERS Facebook Group Event Page (https://www.facebook.com/events/549786151806001/).
You MUST be a member of the NortheastMR2 USA MR2 Owners (https://www.facebook.com/groups/325892597428581/) Facebook Group to RSVP for the event.

It all started on a chilly fall Saturday in 1997, when a handful of Toyota MR2 enthusiasts led by Joe and Roxanne Pearlstein met to enjoy the twisty, windy roads and fall foliage near Bear Mountain. Unfortunately, a little more than a year later, Joe was diagnosed with a terminal illness and passed away. Saddened by the sudden and unexpected loss of a beloved member who had contributed so much to the Toyota MR2 community, the club decided to make the Bear Mountain meet an annual event held in memory of Joe.

No one expected that very small group of MR2 enthusiasts on an impromptu hunt for twisty back roads would grow into a well-organized full-day event every fall that draws almost 250 Toyota enthusiasts from as far away as Illinois and Georgia. The event today consists of a ~100 mile guided scenic drive, a Show & Shine competition, and a raffle and t-shirt sale which raised $3000 donated to the American Cancer Society in 2013. Here are some pictures from last year's event:

NOTE: This event is open to Toyota MR2s and Celica Alltracs only. We simply cannot accommodate the sheer number of participants if more come. Please RSVP at northeastmr2.com.

FAQ:

What is the meet for?
The Joe Pearlstein Memorial Bear Mountain Meet is an event that was started by Joe Pearlstein in 1997 with a handful of MR2s. Since his passing, the event has become a memorial event to honor Joe. Joe was keen on spirited driving, enjoying the fall foliage, and photography.

Why should I come?
Because it is the largest MR2 meet in the Northeast. Expect to see over 100 MR2?s!!!

What happens at the Joe Pearlstein Memorial Bear Mountain Meet?
The Bear Mountain meet is a mix of a car show and a scenic drive. We meet at the starting point near the NY/NJ border, then take a short drive through some very spirited back roads before taking a break for lunch as well as have a Show & Shine event that is judged by the owners! There is also a prize ceremony held after the judging has commenced. At this point, we take another scenic drive over some more spirited roads while making our way to the top of Bear Mountain. We will watch the sun set here and then head to our final destination for dinner back near the Sheraton Crossroads.

Who is invited?
Anyone who is in an MR2 or Celica AllTrac! All participants must be in an MR2 or Alltrac for the scenic drive portion of the event. Due to the anticipated turnout, we can not allow other platforms to join the groups. This will be STRICTLY enforced. With 100+ cars, it becomes very difficult to organize various platforms.

How much does it cost?
NOTHING! Not including the purchase price of your MR2 or Celica Alltrac. Any donations to buy raffle tickets or t-shirts are optional. You will also need money for breakfast and lunch or you may bring food from home.

What should I bring with me?
Bring a full tank of gas and a mechanically sound MR2 or AllTrac. We can't stop the scenic drive in the event of a breakdown so please make sure your vehicle is up to par. You may also want to bring an FRS/GMRS two-way radio to be in contact with the other participants.

Please note that the Joe Pearlstein Memorial Bear Mountain Meet is conducted on public streets. All local traffic laws must be followed. We do not take any responsibility nor assume any liability for any and all motor-vehicle related incidents. This is a rally, not a race; please drive carefully. ivyboy08-21-2014, 04:37 PMJust a reminder that the 18th Annual Bear Mountain Toyota MR2 Meet is less than 2 months away!
