MidSouth Jeep Club

Is scheduled for the weekend of Oct 16-18. It will be held at Superlift. Standard fees to wheel Superlift will apply. The usual haunts will be available for camping or hotel accommodations. Dinner will be provided Saturday night (Need cooks. PM me to volunteer.). Bring your own beverages for Saturday night dinner (Coke, Beer, Water, Etc). A raffle (Details not ironed out yet) will be held. Event clothing options are being explored by CharlieD02tj.

You all be sure to call and reserve your camp sites. Matt got us 8 that are reserved for MSJ. So be sure to identify yourself when you make your reservation.

http://www.travelierinn.com/ offers all MSJ members a discount and is the hotel of preference for many members.

Fall Run Raffle:

Members will receive one ticket with their registration for the run. Additional tickets will be available for $1 each. Our grand prize this year is a gift certificate good for one Hypertech Max Energy programmer which will be loaded with any tune that they offer (winners choice). This is about a $400 value. I use the TJ tune and i love it. I've heard the JK tune is one of their best kept secrets and that it is also AWSOME!

Pre-Register for Fall Run!!!!

Pre-Registration WITH SHIRTS on the SL website will end at Midnight on 10-4-09.

BJ will compile a list of shirt orders and have it to us on the 5th. That way we can place our tshirt order first thing on the 6th.

Pre-Registration WITHOUT SHIRTS on the SL website will continue until one day the week before the run (exact day to be determined and announced). That way you can still get a discount/pay for your wheeling fees and meal.

Bottom line is that all shirt orders must be complete either through the SL website or by working out a deal with Token no later than 10-5-09 so that we can order the shirts on 10-6-09 in order to have them by the run. There is no flexibility there. We HAVE to order on the 6th in order for the shirts to be done and make it to fall run.

After that the price goes up and you are not guaranteed a meal or a shirt. So please register ASAP and help us get everything planned and paid for!

This will run until pre-registration for the run is over at http://www.orvpark.com/events/register.asp?event=17

As soon as I know the cut off date I'll post here. I'm thinking it'll be at least a week and a half before the run so we have time to get the shirts in.

maybe we can take down the old announcements on the home page to add the fall run.

Good point. I think Matt takes care of the main website....

he did last year, last person doing it was Kevin...

Is anyone going to make a flyer for this event? Who does that?

looks like you do, mr "pro tem"

i will but i suck at graphic design i'm telling you that now... That part would be better done by someone else. If i make the flyer it will be very simple

flyers are cool and all, but what would be really cool is a shirt for the event

how many would we need on shirts?

Well they said plan to feed 100. So i suppose we plan to buy 100 shirts and then trim that number back based on feedback prior to the event. I'm going to get with Kevin to see who we used for shirts last time. I'll also get with the other officers to work out all the other associated details for shirts (Budget, presales, etc). Since i'm not sure what the officers have in mind or what is customary shirt wise. Someone will have to come up with the graphic design. I suppose the company making the shirts could do that if we wanted. Or someone in the club that is talented in that area could come up with a rough design to get us started. That sort of art is not something i'm capable of doing though. This gets back to the i'm learning this job as i go and was thrown in head first with no preparation thing Like i said it's fun though. And i appreciate everyone's help and understanding at this time

ok checking on pricing for about 75-100 and prices per color

i will let you know

Shoot me a PM when you find that out and i will throw that in the mix. Give me as many details as you can. Who makes the shirt, material blend, what graphics we can have put on the shirt for the price, etc. That way i'll know what is included in the price i get and what latitude there will be in the design of the finished product. Thanks for the help!

Kate is pretty good at graphics... See if she can come up with something!

I will. But first i need to find out what kind of shirts the shirt company can make for a given price. Full color photos for instance may cost too much so we may or may not be able to include those in the design... i need an assistant... lol

I used Bluff city sports for some....I got 3 color haines beefy-t's for around $5 each.

I'll try and lend a hand on some of this stuff. I have a sams card and a tax number

I'd really enjoy working on some designs for the shirts if you'd like me to.

We could have folks toss out ideas and then come up with a few different ideas and cast a vote for favorite design.
In fact, ROF did exactly that for the MOAB shirts. They had a time limited contest. Folks submitted their artwork on the forum and the winner was chosen by vote of the members. Winner got a free t-shirt.

I didn't get to go to MOAB, but I got a free shirt ;)

Didn't we do pre-sales on the shirts last time?

Yes yes and yes...


Pm sent

Charlie is going at this with the energy of a 6 year old on skittles

I bet you we have 3 different fall run hat, shirt, and pull over designs to vote on in 2 days. All with prices and a method to preorder after the vote is complete

talk about jumpin the gun...
