3rd Annual Back to School Bash - July 2009

[ChargerSXT]

OK...I know that this is a little ways off ( :D ), but I'm going to need to make a rather large decision...and I need y'all's inputs.

I have the opportunity to have the show at the Newport News City Center in the Oyster Point area. The only problem is....MONEY. To have the show at the City Center, there will be a ton of fees, expenses, etc. To cover those expenses, I will definitely need sponsors...either a number of smaller sponsors, or a couple of larger sponsors.

Does anyone have an "in" with any companies that I can contact for possible sponsorships?

Finally, would it be worth the added expenses to move the show?

Thanks in advance for all your assistance.

Standing by to receive...

How packed was it at the church.. If there is room to do 1.5x the amount of cars you had at the church, I see no reason to up the scale yet..

[ChargerSXT]

VERY good point, Hoodie.

[moparknighthawk]

Not knowing the area and only seeing pics of these past events, I cannot comment too much on this subject. But, it looked like the Church area had a nice car show feel to it. It looked like everyone was comfortable there too. I like nice open air car shows at nice places like a Church/Park/Restaurant/Etc. :driving:

[ChargerSXT]

Another good point.

FYI...here's an older overhead shot of the City Center area...

[soccerbachelor]

I like the church but I wasn't there this year, it depends how crowded it was, enough room not to hit any cars with buckets I hope, lol. Either way I hope to be there Charger, Challey or Civic...

[ChargerSXT]

The more I get into the City Center application and see all the possible charges/fees, the more it's plain to see that I won't be able to afford to have the car show there.

However, I'm still looking for sponsors, so if you know of any business(es) who may be interested, please let me know.

Also, check out the Back to School Bash page on the HRME website. I have the different classes for next year's show listed...or rather the classes that I'm considering. Any input on these?

[ChargerSXT]

I have a meeting on Tuesday (1/13) with a potential host/sponsor for the show. As in host...I'm referring to a new location for the show.

I've also got a few proposals ready to go for a couple of other potential sponsors.

I'll let everyone know how it goes.

[ChargerSXT]

1 definite sponsor committed today...

2 more possible sponsors contacted (that I should hopefully know about soon)...

My meeting tomorrow with yet another potential sponsor (wish me luck)...

And 4 more potential sponsors that I still need to contact...

Me Happy! :bigthumb:

[ChargerSXT]

The meeting went well today. I'm just waiting on the final word... http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e367/gatsby6306/asking09.gif

[ChargerSXT]

OK...I've got 2 confirmed sponsors and 6 other potential sponsors lined up.

I'm still waiting to hear back from the 2 companies I talked with yesterday...

I'm going to talk with another company today...

I have a request in for a meeting that I still waiting for a response...

I have to call tomorrow to try to set up meetings with 2 other companies...

Waiting sucks.... :D

[ChargerSXT]

Hey SB. You going to help out at the show this year?

[soccerbachelor]

I don't know if my ship will be here, depends how far behind we are in the yards. If I'm here I will, but then again I'll have a lil one, so it will be just me, no woman.

[ChargerSXT]

[ChargerSXT]

Stop by the other side of the tunnel... right and I'm the nimrod

[ChargerSXT]

I'm the nimrod

See...he finally admitted it.

:D

[ChargerSXT]

I had a couple more meetings today with potential sponsors that I feel went very well. I've also been emailing back and forth with another potential sponsor. Hopefully, I'll start hearing things back soon. When I do, I'll be able to finalize the flyers, announcements, etc. and get them out.

:alfdance:

[ChargerSXT]

Hooters is now onboard as a sponsor for the event!!! :beerchug:

Also, stay tuned, there may be a date change coming...

[ChargerSXT]

OK...the date has officially been changed.

The date is now Saturday, August 1st, and the rain date is Sunday, August 2nd.

Word on the location will be coming soon!!!

[ChargerSXT]

I've got a final meeting (hopefully) about the location on Friday. I hope to have everything worked out by Friday afternoon/evening about the location and sponsors.

:alfdance:

[ChargerSXT]

Latest update...Hop's Place in Hampton has agreed to be a sponsor and to be the car and truck judges. The bikes will be judged by members of B.U.B.B.A.

[ChargerSXT]

It is official...the Back to School Bash has a new home for this year...and for many years to come.

The show will be held at the new Quaker Steak & Lube that will be opening on May 13th at 12832 Jefferson Avenue in Newport News. The restaurant will have an automotive, NASCAR and motorcycle theme. They will host a bike nite every Wednesday through the summer, and a cruise-in on Sundays. I'm also working to set up a monthly HRME GTG as well.

So, the final sponsors for the event are:

Quaker Steak & Lube
Dyno Tuned Performance
Wicked Sisters Cafe
Hampton Roads Navy League
Hop's Place
Trophy World
Hooters

I'll post the event flyer soon!

[ChargerSXT]

I was notified this weekend that the Relay for Life Team The Pink Ladies Cafe...they have been out at the show the past 2 years...will be selling raffle tickets for a 2009 Harley Davidson Nightster, Two-Tone Brilliant Silver Denim & Black. Tickets are only $25 each, and you can buy as many tickets as you'd like...4000 tickets will be sold. All money raised from this raffle will go to the American Cancer Society.

The drawing for the bike will be held at the Back to School Bash. The bike will also be at the event. The tickets are available now...I have 100 for sale. If you would like to purchase one, or some, please let me know.

[ChargerSXT]

There has been a change in ticket prices for the bike raffle.

The tickets are now $5 apiece instead of $25...and you can purchase as many as you'd like...until they're gone, that is.

See if you can park right next to me. It would be cool to have the GoMango next to a Hemi Orange. :bigthumb:

[ChargerSXT]

I'll try to get you guys parked together. If you can get there together, or close to the same time, that will help.

[moparknighthawk]

Revised arrival time for me: 10-10:30. :driving:

[McLMan]

I'll probably be 10:00 - 10:30 also.

[ChargerSXT]

Thank you both for coming out today. I apologize for not getting a chance to visit with you guys more today, but as you saw, I was a bit busy...and I had AWESOME help, too. It's just the nature of the beast.

I really do appreciate you guys coming out and supporting us today. I can't thank you enough.

:beerchug:

[ChargerSXT]

Preliminary numbers for today:

- 105 cars, trucks and bikes.

- $3155 raised for St. Judes.

AWESOME!!!!

:alfdance:

[McLMan]

Very glad to help out St. Judes. Thank you for putting on an awesome show. Also thanks to your wife, daughter, and other volunteers for making everything go really smooth. My first "real" car show with judging and all was a great experience for me. (Taking home some hardware didn't hurt).

There were lots of awesome cars, trucks, and bikes there today. I know the judging wasn't easy because they all looked so good.

[ChargerSXT]

Thank you, sir.

I'll have my pics posted soon. The manager of The Lube took me up on the roof and I got some awesome shots.

I'm glad that you were able to make it down...although the traffic did it's best to keep you away.

I wish that I would have had more time to visit with you and others...but the show kept me too busy. I'm going to make some changes to the judging next year, so hopefully I'll have more "free" time.

For those local, check out today's Daily Press (8/7). On page 12...I'm not sure what section...there is a picture taken at the show and a brief write-up about the show. I'm out-of-town right now, and I haven't seen it, but I've had some family and friends tell me about it and they're saving a copy for me.
