Stone, the concencus was that it should happen, it's just that everyone has an opinion. You will never satisfy everyone, so since you seem to be the one most gung ho, go for it, no one else seems to have the time, as they say. If I were down here all summer, I would help you 100% but since I'm not, I can only help a little, so if you need anything just let me know.
Cheers,
Deny
 
Not a member but...

I'm not a member, just lurking here... :rolleyes:

I think this is a great idea and would love to come; JDM cruiser or not...mine missed the boat out of Tokyo...

June would be a good choice, since no one will have summer plans yet. Of course, I may out of town for business.

Hi All:

Seattle Cruiserheads lurker here. Please keep us updated on your plans. A group of us used to travel to B.C. each year for the J.P L.C. Days.

Would especially enjoy an event with lots of venders present, folks selling/trading used parts, etc.

An event like this should get coverage in the Toyota Trails - get the Coastal Cruisers "on the map."

Regards,

Alan

I'll give you a hand stone, but as said, the main thing is time and place. The cruisers will make the show.

I think Steve said that open road toyota(dont quote me) might be willing to get involved, thus the coquitlam/port moody location was brought up. I don't know what the malls charge for thir parking lots, or if thers a school with a big parking lot there.

:cheers:

Jim:

I'll get in touch with you soon. Thanks.

How about [size=+3]AUGUST 13, 2005 (SATURDAY)[/size] as the day to hold this event? I'm also open for August 14 (Sunday)...but I figured most people who work M-F would probably want Sunday off to relax.

I'm going to start sending emails to the various vendors who are "local"...if I miss you, please get in touch with me. Thanks. ashuang@telus.net

I'm looking forward to seeing all the Cruisers there. :)
 
venders should pay to have a both. we should sell the pop and and stuff.why send the effort to have a day if we not make money. 50 /50, raffle tedder todder. o and dont for get insurance. stone do u have my # gar
 
Gar: Yup...I have your number from the list.

I think October will be too cold, too wet, and too late. I would have liked even earlier in the year, but it's cutting it too close.

As far as food etc. is concerned...one thing is that we would need plenty of volunteers from the Club to come out and man those stations in order to make it work. People would have to prepare all that food, bring all the equipment (tent, tables, food, condiments, cash float, etc.) to the show and then sort it out and clean up afterwards. IF we do go with a charitable organization, I understand the old shows had this, then we don't have to worry about any of that and it gives a charity with a good cause a chance to get some revenue.

As far as the raffle goes, that would be easy enough to do 50/50...or as someone suggested a 50/25/25. (50% to the winner, 25% to a charitable organization, and 25% to the Club). Don't forget we want to sell t-shirts with the great logo that Deny came up with. We should probably get that going soon...as soon as we all know that the date is finalized.

As far as insurance goes...will it be made to Coastal Cruisers as a club? I've never done this before, so I don't know. If it does, then I guess Steve will have to take out that policy since he's the head honcho?
 
get the non profit society stuff going again with Victoria then the club will probably be able to do insurance of some sort
the club has not been current with Victoria for about 4 yrs.

now..if we were 4wdabc members.....I believe we would be covered by their insurance policy. Just a thought..... ;)

IF I were a 4wDabc member an I decided to have a cruiser show would their insurance cover me ;)
 
Hi All:

Alan, the Seattle Cruiserheads lurker here again!

If you folks decide on doing the event on a Saturday it would be cool if the CC Club also hosted a trail ride late on Saturday.

If there was a decent medium or hard core trail within about one hour's time (60 miles/90km) from where the event was held it would be cool for us "out of towners" to cap off the day with a trail run and camp-out, then more trail running on Sunday morning. Of course, that might be a way for the CC Club to make a bit more money by having a extra fee for those on the trail ride.

Honestly, at the old J.P. L.C. Day event several of us would "cruiser-pool" up togather to Surrey from Seattle to save on Gas $$. We might all drive our TLCs if there was also a trail ride involved!

Alan
