The problem with organizing events is you don't want to compete against one
of the nationals. It will affect participation.
Carlisle All-Chrysler Nationals - July 13-15, 2001. We already have a large
group going each year and it's fairly central on the east coast. It's one
of the better Mopar shows in the country.

Subject: Re: DML: Too many shows
I agree with you there. I just move far north enough, I can go to Carlisle
next
year :)WHOO HOO!:) I think a Dak caravan rolling in for the weekend would
be
great. At a larger show, the Daks would definitely get more publicity on a
whole,
as well as better chances of magazine coverage for quite a few people on
this list
that truly have some amazing trucks. And as always, the more the merrier.
I still would like to set up a CNY meet for the spring, though. This is the
best
mailing list I have found, everyone is nice, opinions and ideas are
respected, and
Jon's done a terrific job with the main page. After three years hiding in
the
shadows, I would like to have a meet before the big shows in the summer that
I would
be able to attend, just to meet everyone, and to see all these great trucks
in
person.
Besides, I'm still young and working crappy jobs that illegal aliens can get
just as
easily, so time off for me is just a matter of calling in sick :)
Fingers hurt from typing so much...
