NEED VOLUNTEERS! OLD CAR SUNDAY CAR SHOW. MISSION BC *SIGN UP*
« on: January 11, 2015, 11:00:46 am »
This event is held in Mission BC every fathers day.  Loré Arens has brought this opportunity to me.  What we need is people that can help out at the event and park/guide cars to the various parking spots as well as accept donations from a event table.  Old Car Sunday will be held Sunday June 21st.  If we can get a bunch of people to help out and volunteer, the club will receive a cheque that will go to the BCDSM bank account and be used to purchase clothing orders (for stock), stickers, and also help fund the food,drinks raffle prizes and also fund and upgrade the coming forum upgrade/changes.  It would be awesome to get out there this year and help out.  




I will be there, mostly likely along with my wife and 2 kids.

Thought I would get you guys some ideas of what we can expect if we get enough people to do this

Our club did this in 2013 - there were over 1300 cars, our club got a cheque for over $3000+
Last year, the weather wasn't great and only 500 cars came out, and our club still got a cheque for $1100 (it never did rain in Mission)

BC DSM will be teaming up with Mopars Unlimited.  The volunteer roles for both clubs is that of parking lot monitoring and accepting money at one of the donation tables.  It is important to keep emergency lane ways clear, cars parked in numbered lanes, vacated parking spots filled and, perhaps, reporting any security issues (B&E's, vandalism, etc.) with regards to cars to the authorities.

Last year, Mopars Unlimited had eight volunteers, who were run off their feet. If both clubs can get about a dozen volunteers, then the task becomes easier for all.

There were 1,348 cars at the 2013 show and approximately 550 cars at the 2014 show (the threat of rain kept most peeps away).  This is going to be a fun event - a mix of cars, enthusiasts, food, vendors, yoga classes (kidding) & sunshine (as one of the organizers promised).

See if you can't help BC DSM with its Web site upgrade goals by volunteering your time.  Club members want smartphone photo uploads and etc.  It takes $ to provide this service to club members.

Ill be there for sure.  Yvonne will be there maybe as well, along with the kids (mostly to view all the cars),  I can definalty try and wrangle some more people up.  How many people are we looking at needing?  Did mopars unlimited give us a minimum or anything?

The more the merrier, if we get a good number than everyone can enjoy the show and work alittle as well.
We need at least 12, to make it work.

If we wanted we could go as a club, park all our cars in a group, it costs $10 to enter the show, but it goes to a good cause, money raised goes to Variety Club.

It is a good time.

I'll be going but I will be showing up in my Galaxie.   ;D

Lexi doesn't get out much these days and she would be very upset to miss a Fathers day in the park.  That being said, I am sure I can help out at some point as a reserve/substitute helper. 
Current projects:  1992 Laser RS AWD - daily summer
                           1995 Talon Tsi AWD - daily winter
                           1989 2000GTX FWD - not sure where this is going yet
                           1991 Talon Tsi AWD - soon to be organ donor

Any help is very much appreciated, if we get enough volunteers it will not be an all day job because we can share the work (FUN).
