Is there no Texas date.

 

No Texas show this year. We will find a new location and come back in a year or so. Seems as though folks didnt like the Giddings location. We had plenty of cars all 3 years, but the spectator count dropped year to year. I'm to blame for part of that trying to make the show a 2 day affair in the 2nd year, that didnt work out too well and that showed in the 3rd year. Even bringing in top name entertainment (Jr. Brown and Honky) didnt draw enough folks. My fault completely. I really did dig the show there, it was a great location that let us do pretty much whatever we wanted, but you cant ignore the results. We'll find a better spot and make the show bigger and better soon.

open to any and all suggestions for locations or unique things to do

 

Thats sucks are club was really looking forward to it this. We even wanted ask if we could Host it. Look at the fair grounds in Conroe Tx if you get a chance.

 

cool that the show is back in Ocala, I should be to both the Florida & Michigan shows again

 

PM me yer contact info. would like to talk with ya a bit.

 

Fairgrounds in Conroe, TX is a nice location. Too bad Giddings didn't work out.

 

What about San Antonio? We've got some nice parks and areas for a show here.

Looking forward to it. See ya in chehalis and toutle !

 

Too bad about the Texas show. Sucks.

Thank you got your email , with the entrance pass!

Reserved a room at the Hampton Inn.

Has there been anymore discussion about a parking patrol ? I'll pitch in for a bit, on Friday night.

 

In regards to the Texas show, that is a disappointment, however allot of people I talked to complained about the time of year, saying it would be too hot. I figured us die hards could tough it out, but apparently we are getting fewer in numbers.

 

the texas show will return. We'll look for a different location and a different time of year.

 

I have been in touch with the Sheriff Dept up there and am working out some details/ and hours needed. They have a 3 hour min @ $ 35 per hour, which isn't horrible. I figure most we would need would be 2 am till 6 am as most of us are hanging out in the parking lot late and get up early.

I'll be happy to bear the brunt of the cost, but any donations at the hotel will be appreciated. Even a fiver or tenner would be nice.

Only 27 more days, and man are we excited !

I'll pitch in, I did a breakdown of how much to chip in... $10-$20 each if we get between 10 and 20 people chipping in...

Somebody want to bring a coffee can with a slot in it and we walk around the hotel parking lot, or do you want to set up a Paypal account, Don?

 

I'll be glad to chip in. I'm registered with reservations at the Sleep Inn Friday and Saturday night. I should be there Friday afternoon.
Don, I'll try and locate your 27 Friday so I can buck up. Can't wait.

Ok, I have finalized with the Marion County Sheriff's office the hiring of an off duty officer. He will be coming to the Sleep Inn on Friday night (actually Saturday morning) from 2 AM til 6 AM. I was trying to keep the hours to a minimum and yet get coverage during the most critical hours. I figure, based on previous years, that some of us will be hanging out BSing in the parking lot until 2, and then some of us will be back awake by 6, so the hours in between are the ones where we need our cars protected. I will make sure I am there when he arrives at 2 to tell him what we would like done and will also make sure I am up and out by 6 am when he leaves so that someone will be watching the cars constantly.

They charge $ 35 per hour X 4 hours + $ 140.00. We are happy to cover most of the cost since we started this thing, and the offers to kick in a few bucks are very appreciated. I think it is well worth it to not have any problems with our cars and to be able to get a good nights sleep. I know we all have insurance and all that, but it would be terrible to wake up Saturday morning and have something we love and worked so hard on gone........and that is happening all too often these days.

Don

 

Please don't put it in Dallas! You will lose me and many others. To far north!

please try to keep it down in the triangle.

 

looking for good locations... any tips appreciated.

 

Cool! count on me for help... We'll be outside the hotel at 5:30 am Saturday as usual, but we'll be busy preparing the show field.

 

Have you guys gotten your admission passes yet? I registered the very first day and haven't gotten mine . Alan ?

 

I asked the same thing (post #14) and got mine in a emailed , to print out.

 

count me in for a trophy for billetproof washington. Ill give the show another go.

 

I'll post the trophy sign up here soon, pick which one you'd like to do and we'll see you there.

 

I'm disapointed about Texas too... it was a good show, been there all three years, gonna be weird having a year gap in my decals.

Galveston County Fairgrounds has hosted MetalFlake Drive-In before and it has plenty of room, not sure about burnouts though and its way southside... Conroe is also a good location. Listen to those Rumble Cat's... they know how to party!
