All you had to do was ask for an invite to the other site, which will be the club site until the real one is finsihed. the run is the run, we have had this discussion before when you were not present so here is the deal...The forum is not a club, it is a place for the exchange of info etc, a club will allow us the structure and rules to handle bigger better runs and to be better able to govern things like growth, finances etc, so we will always involve the forum because we are part of the forum, but I don't feel that we have enough structure as just the forum to handle the issues that will come with bigger better runs...There is no conflict in my eyes, the Dells, as well as the Missouri proposals are just that, proposals, and as I have stated all along will be dealt with by majority vote, this has been clear from the beginning, when we said let's look for alternative sites. I would suggest letting the site be determined before you chase sponsors unless they are willing to be involved no matter the location. You stated that you asked to be a member, I have not recieved your request, send me your e-mail address and you will be given the invite to the other site, understand that the other club is forming, we are on draft two of the by-laws and we are still open for logo designs. if you have further questions concerning the club or the Dells proposal then you are free to pm me and we will discuss it...

I need to know if there would be interest in group activities, such as a mini-golf (putt putt) tournament or a go cart race in the case that the run goes to the Dells, there are excellent facilities for both and I will see if we can get a special useage deal for our events, other events can include a winery tour, rides on the Ducks (WWII amphibious vehicles) lots of shopping in downtown Wisconsin Dells, amusement parks and the hotel will have the largest or second largest indorr waterpark in the world, so if you have desire for any kind of these activites let me know so I can work a deal on those costs as well...

I have been to the Dells many times. They have many awesome mini-golf courses and the go car tracks are a blast. You pay one price for the day and you get to ride all the tracks (around 30 I believe) and the roller coasters.

The ducks are pretty fun, they do get you out in the open and then the guides ask you to purchase things from them. It is not too bad. The water parks seem to be crowed a lot so we have never hit the water parks. Just outside of town is a narrow guage railroad that you can ride on small train with a steam engine. That was fun. Of course, it is a tourist location and there are many tourist related shops..

I would love to see the Table Rock area also...You guys a spending a lot of time on these and we all appreicate it.

Thanks

Don

I love go carts scale!! and mini golf is cool to!! i just sold my go cart about 2 yrs ago then moved to the country and I miss it!!


Rolyat1955 I think that is the main objective of the big bash in 07 to get as many of us crazy hhr peeps in one place at one time as possible and i think that is the idea on 99 percent of our minds any whoo!! i dont care where it is as long as we draw a huge volume of hhr peeps and I think it will be polled as to where it will be right here on this site!!

Who's ever going to be in charge of this Big Run in 07 can you please let me know what time frame you plan to do? I would hate to have it during the same time as the Atlantic City Run. Either different weeks or months would work out for everyone in case people wanted to attend both

Mike, I think the only thing undecided is location. I'm sure someone else will correct me if I'm wrong, but I think our plan is for August. Same month we had our first event.

Hope this clears it up for ya, but like I said I may be wrong.
