Old thread has been closed.

If anyone is interested in helping organize this meet, please post here.

Again, if anyone wants to do it, the previous organizers are willing to provide some tips and guidance.

Also, this is not a one-person job. At the previous ones, we had no less than 6 or 7 people working to make it happen.

Hi guys, I'm interested. Is there a list of things that need to get taken care of? That way it's easier to volunteer for stuff.

Right now, there is nothing happening. If this meet is going to happen, someone will need to take control and set things up from start to finish.

The old organizers will not be involved with this (myself included) other than to provide tips and answer questions when needed.

That's true, but we need to find a pair of leaders to report to first, so that everyone is not doing the same responsibilities. We need 1-2 lead organizers and a staff of volunteers. Who's going to lead this event and delegate the responsibility?

Another alternative, is just have all the cars meet at Treasure Island just as we do on Friday nights. Everyone does their own thing for lunch. That would be the easiest way if time is running out.

The first thing you need to do prior to starting a list of who is going or not is establish an organizer list & Time/Date.

You will essentially need the following (you can combine responsibilities as needed):

Site Organizer - Establishes location, parking layout, and time frames for each location. Usually will need to secure an area for the group. You will most likely need to have a few more people to help due to the large group. It's also a good idea for this person to keep in close contacts with the convoy leads from each location for ETA & travel to and from TI. This is probably the hardest job since you'll also need to ensure everyone is not acting/driving like morons.

Vendor/Raffles Organizer - Contacts Vendors who are willing to participate and sets up raffle prizes. Also sets up display tables as needed. BTW...we should get some My350Z.com T-Shirts/Hats to sell and/or raffle off.

Food Organizer - Takes estimates of how many people will be eating and communicates as needed to restaurant management. Last year it became a free for all and people ended up just eating where they felt like it. You will probably still need to at least inform the surrounding restaurant managers that you will be having this so they know a lot of people will be around & they don't complain that we are taking up parking space.

List Organizer - Administers attendee listing and ensures list is in proper order. This may or may not include the number of folks who are eating (depends on what is decided as mentioned above). Also keep tally of what cars are going so we can get a good listing of how many 350Z's, G35's, older Z's, and other cars are attending. This is mainly to see if any records have been broken & for future planning.

I would help again this year but can't due to my work schedule. I will, however, provide feedback/advice as needed.

- James

Ill take over as the site organizer. I have experience with this type of position. Ill work on the securing the location, times, convoy's and project managment. Who is willing to take on the positions of:

Vendors:

Food:

If we can fill these positions then we should set up a conference call to establish who everyone is and get organized. I can set up a conference call with netmeeting if netmeeting also. Lets stop being "lookie lou's" and start stepping up!!

Lets try to get a call going by no later than the end of this week.
