12 DAYS TO GO!

If anyone is interested in helping spread the word, I have attached a donation request letter.
This would go to anyone that could be considered a sponsor - dealers, service places, parts stores...

Don't forget, this is a Japanese show. If you can, try a Honda or Toyota dealership. Or go check out a bike shop after work and leave one there.
There's always the Lordcos, but then there's the littler shops too.
Don't feel you need to stay and sell the show if you don't want to. Just leave it for a Manager, etc.

If you're interested, please print one off and take to your favourite (insert place here).
I will be emailing it to members that I can too... I do have 15 printed copies, and plan on hitting up the places I can here in the Valley.

I included a copy of the poster, and a letter from the Red Cross for reading (4 pages in total) as well.
The letter is signed by myself, and includes my contact info for anyone to get a hold of me.

That's it for now!

Betty got one up at the Local Toyota dealer, and I got one put up at Advance Auto and Specialty Engineering. I will print off a few more tonight.

thanks guys!

this is more than a poster though. this is a letter mainly, asking for donations. I'm looking at hitting up a coupe of automalls this weekend - Abbotsford and Richmond - with them.

well... that planned backfired. I was foolish to think that dealerships would be open on Easter Friday. I struck-out at all of the Japanese dealerships in Abbotsford with them all being closed.
Time for alternatives today! Too bad the traffic is so bad... it's a great day to cruise around with the sunroof open!

You kidding, don't expect dealerships to be open on Sunday either, they are worse than me banks considering that they are retail!

Eh Guys,

I took advantage of the beautiful weather today and took the family out for a picnic dinner. What this means for the show is that I spent the day blowing the dust off the cooking equipment. And now that I KNOW it's all in one place, I'll bring it out to the show next week to grill some dogs for lunch (or WHY)- if you are brining something to cook, let me know and I'll make sure I have enough gas.
