There always seemed to be someone at the "Camp" all the time so that is not a problem. Only "problem" was not a lot of shade, take the money from the tables and get a good sized canopy with the C3VR logo on top or all four sides so it can be seen from all angles. The regulars can take care of the rest.

What and miss out in the table debacle? That sounds great Adam..I may be able to talk my dad into bringing his tent up.he was the guy with me last year ..it is deep enough to cover two spaces..he has all the tarps and stuff to put it up..maybe would need a sign or two like big E says..

Do we need permission from the Heads at Carlisle to put something at the parking area? Lets not get a bad rap for no reason. We can do what is needed if the help is willing.  Mark

Can we commandeer a spaxce or two and invite members to sell their spare parts at the swap meet if  we split the cost? We can even put up banners and set up the flyers...

Adam,

I go to the Ford show at Carlisle in June and how they do that Carlisle sets up a free big tent if you register 25 or more members of a club. I don't know if they do it for Corvettes or not, but it would be worth looking into. They let you sell club merchandise from the tents also! Just a thought.

Officially C3VR can have a booth in the C3 Parking area, with info and merchandise, but I've chosen not to since I had the space in swap meet area, I feel like there is more foot traffic there. If I do not come up there, it does not make sense to ship anything other than a box of flyers.  I'd have to count on you guys to bring a canopy and maybe a table for the parking area.

chelli would miss you.

We would all miss you..maybe just being there WITHOUT the massive responsibility of running a show might be fun. Good times be had with little thought.

I have stuff that I want to sell. Anyone else interested in a swap meet space? If so, I may trailer the lukester so I can load up the Yukon with parts...

Hey Paul that sounds like fun for the swap meet...just an FYI though ..there are tons of people selling parts there..last year by 2 on Saturday right after Mark got his top I walked around the swap meet area and more than half of them were packing up to go home..I talked to many of them and all said that they weren't selling much if anything at all..I do know that the GM performance guys sold a ton of stuff..but they do new cars not the older stuff..I wouldn't bet the farm on selling to much unless you are really cheap..EBAY may actually sell easier too..It was hard to see all these guys with real factory parts,,old stuff like NOS..didn't sell much cause they wanted what they thought something was worth not what someone was willing to pay for it..I have been to Carlilse now for at least 15 years and the last five I have seen a heavy if not massive decline there..blame the internet I guess..makes things much more competitive..or just the fact that most of these guys selling parts think that they deserve and will get whatever they want for the part they have..I walked away from 2 parts that I could have used that were still in the GM box because it just wasn't even remotely a good price..not even close..I asked if I could get a better price if I bought both and he declined..so I walked away..no sale..just a thought..don't get the hopes up to high on that..but on the other hand it is a fun place to hang out and BBQ!!!

I know this is early, but wouldn't it be cool this year to have a host hotel so we could all hang out and cruise in to the show together? I would be willing to help with this if anyone is interested! Jaws792010-12-28 20:16:19

That's a good idea Barry..I think everyone stayed all over the place last year..I am just south of Carlisle about half hour..not sure how easy it would be to find a hotel in Carlisle or not..North York has some places as well as Dilsburg..

I might be game fer an overnighter...

The Holiday Inn in Mechanicsburg is great (thats where I stay in June with the Yellow Mustang crowd) and they are always nice to deal with.

Frank & I will be there & be happy to help out however it ends up going (handing out fylers at the C3VR parking, or a swap meet space...or both.  We would not be in for the hotel, as we will be bringing the "road whale" again & staying at Dogwood Acres in Newville.

I know this has been dormant for a while, but we really ought to get started planning this year. After all, we don't want to lose our preferred parking (I think we have a good spot).

I've decided that I'm going to keep one of my three swap meet spaces, even if I don't use them this year.  So ID-50 will be our swap meet space.  I haven't decided yet if I'll ask anyone to setup and man a booth there.  I'll likely just ask folks to have some flyers and a banner with them at the parking area.

Dave, I appreciate the offer to help, but the effort/cost of getting supplies up there is just not worth it.  I think I'm just going to skip using the space this year.  I know in the past, a bunch of folks enjoyed hanging in the C3 parking area, set up a pop-up tent, hung a banner and had flyers available.  I think that is the route I'm going to take this year.

 There was something in the mix about all of us staying in the same hotel. Is that still being worked on, or has it been voted down? I would like to make reservations to attend before the rooms are all taken, or hotels filled up.  M-n-S
