Re: (ET) Electrak Show??



I had expressed an interest a year or so back. Looked into tying into the Wheelhorse show, but they declined. Another alternative would be tying it into the Power of DC in Hagerstown MD. They get a good number of electric cars and dragsters - I know a few people on this list have attended and/or competed. They have used ETs at least once as tow vehicles. It would save us from a lot of organizing, give us other things to see, and allow us to introduce ETs to a receptive audience.

Geof that was you an I talking, along with Dave in MA, Mark in MO, an Mike in NH.

I have done a little searching for a place, the cost, food, a building,etc an have started to put together some info.

What is needed now is the following...

    1. How many of you would come?

    2. When is a good time? (thinking May/June 07) an where?

    3. time frame...1 - 2 - 3 days?

    4. What is needed at the site? (Motels, Rest.,good
         roads, Camping, Power, etc)
5. Travel...based on what I see of your locations it would be a 2 to 12 hr drive if done in NW Ohio

    6. cost..for the place, food/drink, etc for the day/days

I have done this for the local radio club for over 10 yrs with up to 150 vendors an a 1000 attendee I would love to do it for this group, but that is not no my call, that is up to you all

So I ask for your input, your opinon, your answer, your questions, etc...I think it is doable, but it will take up of us

Subject: (ET) Electrak Show??


Hi
I've lost the E-mail but somebody out there on the list was think
about a Electrak (Wheelhorse spelling) get  together. Which, I would be
extremely interested in attending. Supporting and would bring equipment to
if possible. I suggested that it be done in conjunction with a local 
tractor
show which is still a good idea. I would even consider approaching my Club
(which is only 30 minute from Buffalo) here in Canada. However, it seems
that Americans are understandably a little shy about travelling outside the
US these days.
However, it just occurred to me that doing this on conjunction with
a local electric vehicle show or Club would be another possibility. I think
this would add interest for both the Electrak (GE spelling) and the EV
community.

My 2¢
Geof
