Subject: Re: Yo everyone! by biggrizzly on 2011/6/19 14:12:09 Frank, The fact you had fun is more important than the turnout. I'm sure I don't have to tell you that. Two weeks ago I organized and held our 38th Annual Spring/Summer Car Show. The attendance was down from past events even after adding judged events for GM Muscle Cars and Classics. It was advertised for months... I had Harlan Charles there from GM. I had a new 2011 ZR1 Centennial Edition, New 2012 Carlisle Blue Grand Sport and still attendance was lower than expected.. Oh, the weather was perfect too. I expected at least 150 cars and only drew 110. I was prepared for 200. I don't know what it takes to get them out, but like I said in my other post, sometimes the stars and planets need to be in alignment for some people to get out to an event! We got to keep planning and doing these events or it will dry up and go away. I love doing this stuff and we have fun even if it is just me and my Corvette that show up at some of my events! Oh yeah... another thing I noticed was there were about 50 Corvettes in the "Corvette Only" parking area that could have been registered and in the show, but chose not to be for whatever reason. If I could have got those guys involved it would have been a winner! |
