Sample Flier for a FLXC show

**Schimbo Mango** · 08-16-2009, 05:38 PM

This is only a sample of what could be done.
i was hoping to be able to host a monthly meet at local places. We can offer top 3 throphies and use the money we make from the show and 50/50 to help out charities like Habitat for Humanities.

Let me know what you guys think.

while your here lets vote on what shows we would like to do.

Mike... Just my 2 cents... Hosting monthly shows is a bit too much and yearly shows is too far to wait. What about hosting a show 3 times a year (every 4 months)? I think that could be more manageble.

yeah for sure im just trying to start the planning and ge this rolling.... farther apart the shows are the better they will be

im with paco Mike, by the way the flyer looks awesome.....

nice ideas..... things to keep in mind:

who coordinates the location??
who coordinates possible sponsorship??
who coordinates with the charity??
who coordinates prize drawings??
who coordinates 50/50 funds??
who coordinates trophies??
who judges???
what liabilities will be accounted for and by whom???
who coordinates flyer printing, parking cars, registration, food, etc, etc....

i would tend to lean towards paco's comments and make this maybe a 3 event per year..... maybe even only two (one in spring, one in fall).

good start, just lots of details to address before making any decisions.

Just another thing to consider, historically any show FLXC has sponsored, no FLXC member participating is eligable to receive a trophy. It just doesn't make for a good reputation if our cars are judged and entered into the competition.

All of us have been to shows where the sponsors got the trophies and we all left less than happy.

yeah we all talked with matt(kgbpro) last nite and we agreed that none of our cars should be judged we would help the show and just have our cars on display. as far as the details we can discuss all of that at the meeting but for now we can get the thoughts going. lets get everyones imput

Already been doing some talking with him and others about corporate sponsorship, and since he is statewide and so is FLXC it would work well. I have had the opportunity to speak with some fellow GM's about having shows at their stores, even the possibility of multiple showes occurring on the same date at several locations throughout the state, so that travel wouldn't be much of a problem for anyone, they could attend more regional events. We are in the R&D phase of the ideas.

Three shows a year sounds good to me too.
