Expressions of interest

[thunderoo]

I have just had a phone call from the guys from the Coastal Cruisers, a member of theirs recently took a trip to the Gold Coast and found an event that happens there every month on a Friday night, and he is trying to do the same for Port Macquarie, and has asked us to see if our club is interested. He is trying to get together a gathering of cars on a Friday night from around 6:00PM through to 9:00PM, Everybody that is interested or owns a car that he or she feels that fits in is very welcome to park their car and open the hood, there is no restrictions on what car it is or what badge it has or how many wheels it has, and you do not have to be a member of any club to attend. This is an opportunity for people to come down and park their car and get to form new friendships and view other cars ect. The Harvey Norman complex has been approached and they have agreed for us to use the car park, AUTOBARN and the fast food place has been approached and they are willing to keep the shops open till 9:00PM. The local Police have been informed and they are willing to be on our side at the moment, and they will be keeping an eye on us so we can eliminate the Hoon factor. More discussions with the Police will be had, so they can have more of an involvement in these get togethers, as all it takes is a couple of bad eggs, and then these get togethers will be stopped. These events in QLD attract plenty of onlookers and attention. The ground work has been done and car clubs have been contacted, now we just need to fine tune a few details and get other ideas from people that would attend this event and stitch it together and get it happening. it would be great to get ideas (good or bad) from others so we can iron stuff out and see what sort of attendances we would get before we try and get it started.
