Dylan06SS Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 I've been thinking... You see alot of different clubs around (especially here in So Cal) for particular make/models... why not start regional chapters for us SSers? What really got me started was that my parents belong to the Pomona Valley Covette Owners Club and this year they've raised (thru car shows, community service, raffles, etc.) over $26,000 for a charity they donate to each year. I'm not suggesting that we can raise nearly that much money... but if we did it right... appointed some regional presidents, financial officers, etc. it could work. I've seen HEMI clubs, theres the Lightning Owners Clubs, F-Body, Mustang, etc. And being in an ACTUAL CLUB means discounts for members at shows, drags, etc. So what do you guys think? This would entail us keeping an organized, commited group together with monthly meetings, cruises, etc. Any input is welcome... I'm just curious if anyone else thinks this would work?

Dylan06SS Posted April 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 just make sure there would be a regional close to Arkansas <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think it'd be organized by whatever guys are in each area, but follow a universal set of guidlines in each club and then the regional presidents would be responsible for thier guys and organizing meets w/ other chapters.

misterp Posted April 30, 2005 Report Share Posted April 30, 2005 I think this could be a good idea. I also think that it could be a huge undertaking. But I would be very willing to participate somehow... Mr. P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan06SS Posted May 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2005 Good feedback guys. Like anything that will involve $$$ and time I think it needs an effective business model so I will draft something and I'll post it up for you guys to bounce ideas off of. Most clubs w/ this level of national organization have membership dues (benefits don't come without cost) so what do you guys think the enrollment should be? What should it cover? What should the requirements be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
