[NoVa-Corvairs] 2007 Vair Fair Planning Cookout

[RVTUM at aol.com]

Members,
 
I would like to host a cookout for our  "Corvair family" on Sunday, July 9 at 
1:00.  You don't need  to bring anything, just an appetite!  In addition to 
just relaxing  and having a little fun, I'd like to take this opportunity to  
discuss our plans to host the 2007 Vair Fair.  We have an  above ground pool 
for the kids or adults, so bring  swim trunks/suits.  
 
Here are some things to think about:
 
1.  Possible change of venue: I have not been able to find  a hotel in 
Leesburg with a room rate below $100.00 with adequate  conference & banquet 
facilities. Hotels included: Best Western,  Holiday Inn, Days Inn and Comfort Suites. 
(Best Western was  most anxious to work with us for a price) 
 
2.  Getting our web site updated and prepared to support online  
registration.  Should we do this ourselves or pay a company to design  the site for us and 
be done with it?
 
3.  T-shirt design & ordering
 
4.  Ordering event merchandise, plaques, trophies, decals  etc.
 
5.  Fair activities: rally, valve cover races, model  contest raffles, games 
etc.
 
6.  Food: Catering or crockpots
 
7.  Check in activities
 
8.  Vendors & swap meet
 
9.  Registration processing 
 
10. Car show & judging
 
11.  Tech session & guest speakers/MC
 
I know I've missed a bunch of stuff here, but this is just to get us  
thinking.  I hope everyone can make it.  The date  is flexible if we find that its 
not  convenient.  Please RSVP by 07  July.  Thank you!!!
