Exclamation SoCal MB meet PLANNING thread - (May 12 or 19)

time to begin planning for the next BIG Mercedes-Benz SoCal Meet....

Looking at either May 12 or May 19

and venue can either be our usual spot at LOT K of the ROSE BOWL (Pasadena)
or another central SoCal location with capacity to hold 150+ MB's
without Po-Po intervention.

If you would like to help plan, please post here. Looking for:
  • DJ with own power
  • MB Tuner sponsors (Renntech, Brabus, Kleemann, HoP, Carlsson, AMG, evosport, etc...)
  • Donations for raffle prizes
  • Other sponsors (car care products, sound systems, wheels/tires, etc...)
  • Logistics Supervisor (banners, canopies/tents, permits)
  • Parking Supervisor / Arrangement
  • Professional photographers
  • Promotion Supervisor (magazines, photoshoot, donations)
  • Liaison with local MB Dealerships, MBCA Sections, MB Classic Center, & other MB clubs (190SL, Unimog, M-100, etc...)


We will start a NEW thread, once all the exact details are finalized.
So don't start a list of attendees just yet.
Mercedes-Benz vehicles only !


Carlos

Carlos,

Don't give up too easily!

BTW, I know Liz Rusnak (RUSNAK Mercedes-Benz, etc), so I might be able to convince her to do something for the meet.

Either date works for me. I have no preference. Any location is good too.

I have been trying to reach Carlos the past few months to help plan a more elaborate 2 day event either June 1st & 2nd or 2nd & 3rd. Hopefully I will hear from him soon. There will be a save the date posting coming out next week looking for final feedback and additional details. It will be worth the drive from NoCal and Arizona........

Carlos,
You should hear about the huge event Shelle is planning before you do this. I will let Shelle share the details with you, or you can email me. I can't make it to an event till June. Miss all you guys!
