We will be the club of the night for the Hastings Car Show on august 10th. Hank has scheduled a meeting prior to the show at 4:00. We will be working the gate on the west again this year. The parking lot where we have parked in previous years is now a parking ramp. The ground floor is pretty open and that will be our designated parking area. We will need a head count for those attending so if we need additional parking they will rope off more room on the street for us. As we get closer we will ask members to sign up for a 45-60 time to work the gate with at least two working each shift. Stay tuned for updates.

Thanks Jon for putting this together.

Tina and I plan on attending.

Thanks again for running with this.  I/we do plan on attending.

We won’t be able to make that one again this year. 

Kathy and I plan on making it.

Sorry to miss this again; but I will be in AK fishing and visiting family.

As most of you know in exchange for designated parking at the show we need to man the west gate on main street which is the main entrance point into the show. We just need to allow any vehicles 1976 and older entrance and politely turn away anything newer. We need to have at least two club members at the gate from 5:00 until 9:00.

To assure we have continued coverage at the gate it would be good to get a head count of how many folks will be attending and your preference for a time period to work the gate. If there is anyone who lives south and would volunteer to take the 8:00 shift it would allow some of the far north folks to get a head start home.

If you plan on making the show and have a time preference, 5-6, 6-7, 7-8, 8-9, please post it and I will try and keep a running tally so we have coverage. I will try and post a summary by Friday.  If we have enough folks show up we can easily cut every ones shift to 30 or 45 minutes allowing more time for everyone to enjoy the show.

I thought I would be able to make this show but my plans have changed, hate to miss it.

Hope every one has a good time.

6-7 or 7-8 for me.

I'll be there. No preference on shift, just put me in where needed. :)

***edit*** I'll be there with kids, Jenna is working night-shift that night, so I'll be of limited helpfulness...

I don't have a preference. Put me down as a filler. Hopefully me and Bruce don't witness any altercations like we did a few years ago.

i will not be able to attend this year.  

Myself and Bob J will be attending. We would prefer an early shift 5-6 or 6-7 since we have a long drive home.

The planets have aligned! Sheryl & I will be able to make a meeting!!
(We'll be in the Roadster however... Blackie's trapped in the neighbors garage)

Put us in where we're needed

You'll be all by yourself, this evening..

Saturday is Hastings.

Plans are still set for a meeting at 4:00 near the old bank which is now the new parking ramp. Based on peoples responses here is a tentative work schedule. Nothing is cut in stone and if you want/need to swap with someone just do it as long as all of the shifts are covered. Everything is also weather dependent. If anyone needs a break just reach out there should be club members nearby.

5:00 pm Chris P. and Bob and Derek. This is a very busy shift plus there should be lots of folks around to help with the boys.
6:00 pm Mitch and Stan
7:00 Pm Andrew and Chris R.
8:00 pm John D. and Jon H.

Since Stan did not plan this one there is a chance the rain will miss us. 

The true die hard members made it to Hastings despite heavy rain, wipers not working on some cars, and a substitute vehicle or two.  Another adventure and more stories for the club.  

Thanks Jon for putting this together despite Mother Nature! thumbsup:

Only blue Chevelles made it. 

Red paint runs when wet. The cars would go home naked.
