2011 Shows & Events Introduction

Postby Tweek on Wed Dec 22, 2010 9:14 pm

As you may or may not know, next year there will be a new team of event coordinators. The purpose of this thread is to anounce who will continue on with this task. It is also to ask for your feedback on which shows you're likely to attend next year so we can extend the list of shows where Fiestaturbo.com will be present.

So who's doing what?

Tweek (Wayne) and hb69 (Henry) will be in charge of arranging tickets and booking stand plots for most shows. At least one of us will be on site early to start organising cars and equipment.

jayrs (Jay) being most active on the forum has the pleasure of answering most of the questions asked on the forums and will be the "go-to" guy.

chris 2i (Chris) has probably the most important role in being the accountant. Chris will know who has and hasn't paid and manage the budget for new show equipment. Not only managing cash, Chris will also be looking into some new show goodies, possibly including new T-Shirts, hoodies, etc. However, this is still in development.

Please remember that everybody has the ability to help out whether it is simply just following some basic rules (to follow on Event threads) or helping other members too.

So finally, we ask, which shows would you be willing to attend and what can we do to help make great days?

Cheers.

People will be scared to go to Jay, he will get his muscles out and tell people to piss off :lol: Nah hes a brilliant bloke, one of the best on the forum by far in my opinion :)

Shows I shall be attending will be:

Fiesta In The Park
Ford Fair

Also probably some other little ones, not decided just yet though!

In all fairness, FT have stands at these shows and are always good in terms of organisation of cars ect from what I have seen. I havent got anything I can add to make the shows better, I expect others will do. I did have something, but Wayne said im not allowed to put it or he will beat me up when he next sees me and he threatened me lots and lots too on msn and told me horrible things. I am scarred for life now. I cant even look outside the window just incase 'they' are there :cry: :lol:

Henry and Wayne if you need a hand with anything just give me a shout. This year I wanna try and make it to RS centrals day, BHP show, Fiesta in the Park, Ford Fair and Trax. I think a rolling road day is a really good idea, id love to know what my 23 year old fiesta is kicking out :lol:

P.s. New t shirts is a really good idea.

Rolling road day is a great idea. They would have to be done by regions though, obviously.

Im happy to sort one for the South East/Essex people. Plenty of rolling roads around here. The most central to most people being AMD in Essex (Lakeside) Id love to see what mines putting out two decades down the line :lol:

the issue with doing regional ones is there might not be enough interest to make it worth while

id be willing to travel up the legnth of the M4 as long as the kent and essex chaps can come this side of london?

some come down from yorkshire and manchester way, wayne wouldnt have too far to go either

Regional is better from experience, Im pretty sure theres enough of us in the South East to make a day of it. I doubt anyone will want to travel hundreds of miles for a rolling road day. If it turns out enough people are up for a more central event however, then ill get the ball rolling :)
