Quote:so after the meet at bishops i got to thinking about how every big regional area has a "Focus at/on/in the _______" meet that has a huge turn out.
i wanted to do this this year but it never really seemed to get off the ground.
now if we start planing for it now it will be much easier to work it around everything.


date at this point is useless.
i already have a location picked out, Murrin Lake right off highway 99 about 10 mins before Squamish or 45mins north of down town vancouver. anyone driving on the highway will see this event and hopefully stop and check it out! it's got a BIG parking lot capable of handling 80 cars or so in designated stalls, more if we get creative with parking! it's got a nice clean lake people can go swimming in or even do a little fishing. there are typical lake side park style outhouses, lots of space to setup vendors booths and a BBQ pit. we could have live music, contests, give-aways, door prizes and even a carshow/contest with trophies.

we could call it "Focus in the Mountains"
http://www.clubfocus.net and http://www.zx3tuning.com have already come on as sponsors for the event and i'm sure more sponsors would come once we get this going more!

between ClubFocus, Focaljet and FocusFanatics there are probably 200+ people in the NW alone. plus there are all the guys in the northern midwest and all the guys from the Canadian wide-open 
even people from cali and further south&east might show up.


so i need to find a couple of people who would be willing to help me organize this. this is a serious deal to so you cannot just say you'll do it then not. i want a couple of people from north and south of the border to work together to generate leads, contacts and hype about this event.

the sooner we get everything ironed out the sooner we can start promoting it!
i think this could be a really cool thing, andwith the right sponsor support it would be a killer event.

things i know:

- we will need to rent the parking lot at murrin lake
because of this i think we should charge an entrance fee of like $5-10usd or $9-14cnd per car that way all the money from the sponsors goes to prizes and trophies!

- we need to plan around other big focus events so getting in contact with the people who run "Focus at the Beach" in SoCal and "Focus in the Park" back east so we can get everyone possible to attend. having 2 big national focus meets in the same month cust down attendence to both events! also, i'm sure working with those people who do the other big evenst will help us as we can learn from their mistakes and hopefully get some good info passed along to us to make our event the best it can be!

post up!
