Title: Excited for the rally, whos going?
Post by: BlacXJeep on September 14, 2009, 03:42:16 PM
So turns out I wont be able to make Ma Bell either due to drill next month. So I'm all psyched up about the rally. Here's the link http://www.jeeprally.org/, just watched the whole promo, and got particularly excited when I saw the deuce and a half driving over the rock garden. Wonder if someone might let me drive one, if I show them my GDL. haha.

Unless something comes up, I am in.  If I remember right, they recommend coming in as a group if we all want to park close to one another and they recommend being on the early side.  I am proposing that the Groton Group meet at Groton Town house and leave there around 0730.  A second meeting place will be at Exit 13 off of Rt2 at the back on the Dunkin Donuts parking lot. I figure the Groton group will be at Exit 13 around 0815 and everyone can caravan from there up to Summers which is about another 40 minutes or so. 

For those that didn't make it last year, bring cash for food and drinks.  It is also a good idea to bring a chair.  Has anyone heard from Jon, to try and get our banner? 

I will be bringing all the stickers I have.  The only ones I am sold out of is the Breakneck stickers. (Andy I have all of your separate).

we have T- shirts or is it just hats??
which brings me to my next point, we should all at least try to look like we are in a club together... just thinkin out loud, let me know about the tees, if we dont have them, i will go to a few places for info n prices... i think tees plus is pretty cheap, less than 10 per shirt,i think, but let me know, then if anyone wants them, i can go pik them up, as long as they are being sold right away, i am still a broke a$$, and i think for package pricing, they all need to be the same color shirt and print.

yeah, not too much thought into this, just a quik idea, and dont ponder on it too hard either, just wondering

$10 includes up to 5 occupants.  Plus we could strap a Jeep onto another and get more vehicles in also... :D

how about Just black shirts with white or red JT4x4 logo on the front? Those would look sharp

I am thinking an orange shirt with "Go Topless" on it.  It matches my TJ.

ok, heres the rundown with pricing on shirts and some details...
must purchase by the dozen
shirt colors do not matter (12 different colors is ok)
if the same screen gets used 2 times per shirt, its only .50 cents more per shirt.
if the color of the ink for the logo changes from more than one color, its $5.00 extra per color, divided by 12
(we can evaluate that if it comes to it, but lets try to keep to one color to keep it cheap)

i am not looking to make a profit but i am rounding up to the next .50 cents just to keep it even so...

12 shirts, 1 jt logo, front or back any size wil be $11.05 each ($11.50)  (above XL-$13.17 / $13.50)
12 shirts, 2 same sized logos (1 front, 1 back) will be $11.57 each ($12.00)  (above XL-$13.69 / $14.00)
12 shirts, 2 different sized logos (anywhere) will be $13.18 each ($13.50)  (above XL-$15.30 / $15.50)
12 shirts, 3 different sized logos (anywhere) will be $14.58 each ($15.00)  (above XL-$16.70 / $17.00)
 
also they can print on the sleve, as included in price accordingly

(the exact prices mentioned include tax)

so, with this in mind, i have posted a poll to see what we want as a group for ink color, and again the shirt color doesnt matter.
i have no problem fronting the cash for the shirts as long as i know i am getting it back, also, if there are 9 of us that have a specific shirt color in mind (even if they are all different) and the rest are not claimed right away, i will order the remainder the same as the majority of shirts ordered, most likely in large.

any questions? 8)

as far as i understand, nothing with logos goes to any non-members, so you need to take it up with ed and mel or another of the BOD
Title: Re: Excited for the rally, whos going?

also, i will NEED to know who wants what by saturday, to even have a chance at getting them for the following week!

You are correct in this statement, but in the case of Rock he has met all of the club requirements, has the paperwork to turn in at the next function and was technically able to be voted in at the last club meeting. We just didn't vote him in because we didn't have enough people there. I will vouch that he will be voted in at our next meeting so if we do get shirts I feel comfortable in letting him buy one.

Post by: zjorvis97 on September 17, 2009, 04:40:10 AM
I think the shirts should be black (white logo), red (black logo) or grey (black logo) Just putting in my 2 cents. Would we be driving from Groton to the rally all together or meeting there?

Pretty sure we will be going as a group, this way we can all park together.

ok, so now that btc is done, where should we meet...?  i think anyone around south east ct should meet up at the crystal mall, anyone in north east ct should just meet us there...  just a few ideas...  also, i decided to not persue the T-shirts for this event because it will cost more from the store to rush it, however, if my friend gets back to town sometime this week, i will try to make about 10 shirts with black print, so, lets start the name chainwith color and size for shirts...
