some notes from meeting to prove we do stuff other than eat, drink, and talk about doing things:
1- Half of stickers were given to our President, David Benke. Any members that came to meeting were given 2 stickers plus their pick of the others that are in there from vendors and UC as well.
2- The remaining funds were given to DBENKE for the tshirts. They have been paid for and should be ready today or tomorrow. I will get them from vendor as soon as possible to prevent shipping charges when one of us goes up there or they come down here so we do not all have to wait until next meeting. At the latest I will have them with me at Uwharrie and will attempt to give to members that ordered here around TriCounty area before then. The rest will be handed out at meetings or as appropriate except I will be mailing a shirt and stickers to our member in California.
3- Discussed turning our meetings into HAMOMs for a while...using both Docs and Glenns shops. One is in Sumter and one is on James Island in Charleston area. We already have some takers sucha s knuckle rebuilds, body mount chops, brakes, axles, etc. So stay tuned.
4- Discussed trying to pick the same Saturday every month for planning purposes even if we dont have the event or location picked 6 months out you will know it is the second Saturday of each month or whatever works best and does not conflict with UC in case we ever want or need to go up there as well. More to come and will be posted on website.
5- Website is coming along...I am about 30% through in basic build and loading of pictures and information. Dont forget to burn to disk or post on photobucket or picturetrail so I can pull photographs....and prevent having to use the IH8MUD posted pics as they are watermarked automatically by IH8MUD
6- We talked about camping supplies and such for Uwharrie and future events. We talked about the trails at Uwharrie and that we have 15 rigs now on Saturday with a majority spending the night one or both nights. May have to split into two groups to make sure we dont take too much time on trails. it will be a blast...
7- The current website will not be changed until it is replaced...or that is the goal to get me done sooner on the new one. Please visit this forum once a week to see updates or event planning. I will also send an email to the membership when anything new and worthy is posted for membership review so ensure I have a good email. If you have not received anything in months then it is likely going to a different email as I have one listed for everyone.
Then we looked at rigs....flexed BBQBoys rear end (on his FJ) and discussed things manly and without implications....then BBQBoy led OCD through town to a womans perfume store while he continued to Mt Pleasant with his lovely wife topless (the FJ not the wife) in the threatening rain.
We met ShermanFJ62 and saw again othere members such as DBENKE, LEXTECH, OCD, TTAHARA,BBQBoy and MsBBQ, and ScottShelley and his new FJ80 grinning from ear to ear.
Great time...I apologize that the location was not nearly as good as I implied...I will do better next time.
