Registrations have been coming in. Very few from the club. Even if it is a no cost item, like showing your vehicle, we want them to register so we can send out arm bands and vehicle passes instead of having a big cluster*&%@#!! at the gate. As this is the first year for this event at this venue, it is very important that the club shows up, with their vehicles, in force. 

There is some confusion out there about the show. Most things are the same as Iola. The biggest differences are, no advertised public show on Sunday. No motorhomes or empty trailers in the swap meet and no live ammunition. Yes, people will be arriving on Thursday. Yes, vendors will be selling to each other on Friday and driving mules and jeeps all over. Friday evening is a party for the participants including live music. Saturday, vehicles must be set up and cannot move from 8 am till 6 pm. Yes there will be various things, like a flag raising ceremony. Saturday evening is the big party;  trophies are awarded for vehicles and re-enactors, the pin up girl contest happens, and a different band will play until midnight or so. Sunday there will be no charge at the gate (not to be publicized) for those that show up, but participants will be packing up and leaving throughout the day.

The national convention is over. 4th of July is next week. After that we really start the radio/TV/printed press effort. Please get the club members geared up so we have an idea who's coming. 

we appreciate all you are doing!
