Its all "happening"... vehicles and displays set up and not looking too bad IMO. Leaves the other clubs behind.

Although having a clean Vitara on the stand did seem a bit out of place... Suzuki even asked that it got a wipe over ever morning in case it got dirty....... I think they need a bit more education on the finer aspects of 4WDing :D

And there was actually a long line of people waiting to get in at 10:00 AM - something I was not really expecting.

Thanks already go to :

Lloyd and Mary
Kerry
Daryl

without their help the stand would just not have been possible.

Will post a pic ( even though its prohibited ) tomorrow. Will be very interesting to see how it goes.

I spent a little time on the stand today and was pleasantly surprised with the interest. The show is fairly low key with little 4x4 participation but the people were coming in the gates and we have little competition from other clubs so I will be interested to see what the end result is like. A big thanks to Ross, Kerry, Lloyd, Mary, Matthew, Daryl and the others who are helping make this happen.

On another note, we need to get a brochure or flyer on the Association stand. With the National 4x4 Show coming up soon too it is an opportunity to increase our profile.

Yes I agree wholeheartedly. Many clubs are lucky enough to have a printer in their midst which helps them along immensely in keeping the production costs under control. Callum has already done some work in this area ( our cards, which i believe are very usable ) but there are limits to what we can get cheap.

There are perhaps other options available, but we need to prove our worth to them before we ask for too much. We do things for enjoyment and a commitment to our obsession, but companies need more concrete justifications.

I think we have laid some sound groundwork so far but we still need to do a lot with very little

We can supply the artwork, so if anyone has printing friends please let us know.
