No, the mall is under so much construction and the new head of security has made it clear that we aren't welcome so we have our meets in the parking lot east of red lobster. If you take the jug handle at the light passed CH mall and go back across 38 and make a right into the red lobster parking lot you will see us parked in the lot behind it.
