Default Would We Consider A Yearly Passionford Show?

I know its a lot of hard work and would need a bit of wedge but maybe next year or year after we could do one? Even if we done it on a small scale 1st and take it from there maybe about the size of what the Northants show was like? We have enough members and im sure we would turn up too Somewhere where we can all travel too so the north pf members would meet the south etc

what you think?

i was thinking about this after i read your post last night.

i thought maybe gold members could fund the day, there should be enough f us so that its only say 10quid each or something. but then i wondered how you would reward the members, and because of the numbers it would be nigh on impossible to do something for everyone. eg, central group go go carting and various other stuff throuout the year to reward members, how could you do something for everyone on passionford? it would be nice, but its not very practical. imagine trying to get he money off of everyone to fund the day too... nightmare! and you can bet not everyone would want to pay too, what about those that cant make it for instance...? so many variables, i wouldlovethis to be a possibility but sadly i think it would be too hard. of course i would love to be proven wrong
just my 2pence worth, and all my opinion of course

We did this discussion a while back, and it's just simply not a viable option.

The legal implications, insurance, etc etc are so large, it just wouldn't be worth considering, especially when PassionFord isn't a club.

Personally I also think it's a terrible idea. You have to have something to keep people at shows, and track action usually suffices. Without it, most people have been around the scene long enough not to want to bother looking round a car park.

sounds good, you could have different regions and stuff. There is enough people on this board to do it TBH.
