Rick and I are serious about volunteers, we have put together what we think will be a good show for you all.

But we need your help. If you can volunteer to help some, a lot, or a little, please contact us and we will take you names and be in touch.

If you have wanted to see how a National is run so you can have one yourself, we need some committe chair volunteers.

Please let us know.

Ames Iowa is a small town (23,000) that wants us to come. They had the Hot Rod Power Tour last year and loved them. They are looking forward to the BCA Nationals.

More information (hotels etc) as time gets closer.

Bill,

I'd love to volunteer to help but right now it is just too early. When plans are set in concrete, I will officially throw my hat into the ring. Good luck!

Come on all of you guys and gals that have said you will help out even if it is for a little while, let's go.

Bill, I'd like to help if I can. How do you see this working? What committees are needed and is this something that can be sucessfully accomplished considering the fact that I'm located quite some distance from the show site?

[imported_jscheib]

Bill,

Count me in for help. I will get back to you later with some ideas where I might help. But you should be aware being from Texas,and after my days many years ago in Stillwater, this is the north Big 12 country. I may have to wear my OSU hat rather than one of my Buick ones.

And thanks for this development.

Hi John & John,

Thanks for the offers,I have your names and we will get you plugged in when we get started. We are still in the planning and budget stages right now.

You asked how this will work, we envision conference calls to keep up with progress, more calls as the show get closer and closer. We are not micro managers, we expect the jobs to get done as promised or a call for help.
Then the week of the show, working to get your job done as promised.

If you need help, I expect you to recruit them. We will have a pool of volunteers but if you can get help all the better.

Anyone else wants to volunteer, add your name to the list or PM name and Phone number.

[BUICK RACER]

Bill, put me down for something, or just advice, etc. Thanks for doing this, too!

[Mark Shaw]

Great to see we have a site and a couple of good guys to head up the program. I cannot commit that far out, but will gladly help if timing works out with my work travel.

I strongly suggest we have a meeting in Colorado Springs to establish more details and recruit more help.

Way to go guys...

Excellent...I haven't checked a map, but I have kin in Iowa, and it's relatively nearby, so we'll plan to be in attendance...unless for some goofy reason I am overruled. The next question will be which cars to bring and whether to go for Driven Awards or judging...I guess time will tell.

I honestly can't commit to volunteering with anything at this point, but I can certainly put in some time on site with photography or parking or something that doesn't require local knowledge.
