I have been in contact with the President and Founder of the show I would like for everyone to express their ideas if you want to be in the show. Derek and I will get together for some ideas, I have some in mind I thought if this is a rain or shine event inside the venue would be best if it decides to rain. I on one hand want to promote RC Tanks in the Windsor and Essex Area and Derek said some of Can-Am would also like to Promote Can-Am and also 1/6 Scale

post your ideas lets get something going guys

Indoor would probably be best, as it can get quite humid in August.

Plus the tacks sound louder inside!

Do you know how much area we can get?

this is what he sent me but wonder if they could atleast make it 20 feet instead of 10 feet







Hi Greg
The arena is 180 foot by 80 feet , I can set you at the end of the arena, 10x60 or 10 x80 or something like that.
We will make it fit .

I'd go and participate. Tell me what you need.

Stinger

Damn why do you guys get the cool stuff out there >_>

ok we have to start things rolling on this this is what i got out of my conversation with the coordinator of the Muster
Can-Am and us Windsor Guys have to share a space the 1/6 guys Frank & Friends...lol
have to share the other part of the 20 x 80 there is a door that can't be blocked i'm figuring it's a couple of feet wide taken from the 80 feet across so that being said we have to also share a running area of the tanks 20 feet x 80 feet what we have to work with i think it will be ok oh they have limits to 20 tables so first come first serve but we can't say hey give me 6 tables we might only get a couple so keep that in mind i want to advertize and promote the hobby to the Windsor and Essex area i got some cards made so i will be handing them out there i can't make it to the battles and i want to start battles here in Windsor so get together and see what you want to bring we will make a list and decide who needs to bring what and what needs to be done

here is a drawing i did what i believe to be what was available to us
door way has to be clear incase of fire

Hi Guys i have to say something
i really think you guys are the best everyone is great to hang around with and battle days that i went to were exciting and fun

i want to go into this show to promote the hobby here in Windsor and Essex County so i can battle closer to home
if you guys come it will be even better
i think it would be fun
i however don't think i can go to any Can-Am battles at this time because i can't afford to go i usually have to get advances from my boss from my pay cheques to make it to my next payday
and when i get paid i have to pay it back of course or they wouldn't ever do it for me
i still owe 3 months property taxes
so i find it difficult to go anywhere i do some painting here and ther but it's too far and inbetween to catch up with the bills
i'm not trying to give you guys a sob story just want you to know i wish i could go but my hands are tied at this time but if you guys want to be in the Military Muster show it would be a pleasure to be there with you so letme know what you want to do if you want to let me know on here or PM me whatever you want

i have a Door prize or Raffle i have to check first what we are allowed , it will be a new Heng Long Sherman it will be here in June sometime i did not purchase it, it was donated for some advertising
if we do a raffle for this tank the money would go to War Vets i think this would be cool this was Derek's idea to donate to the War Vets ''Awesome idea Derek ''

i ordered 2 tables they are $5 each to rent from the arena
they have a limited amount so i think that's all i can get from them
any ideas you have throw them on here so we can chat about them
Thanks Guys

Greg

Thanks, mainly what days (one, two or three) guys from this end want to, or can attend.

I would want to travel with someone (and pay my share of fuel), this is because my Journey is a company vehicle, I have personal use so the trip isn't a problem but our gov't HAMMERS me with tax for personal use. Unless I can work a trip to one of our facilties in Wheatley, Leamington, or Belle River on the working day before the event

IMHO that's not a sob story, many of us, or people we know have been in similar positions at one time or another, its no fun.

I hope things turn around, soon.

Sounds like fun but I do agree with glen there should be more discussion on this so all the I,s are doted and t,s crossed

I really like the look of this.
As a tanker and a business opportunity. Getting the name out is always a challenge and anytime there is more than one like minded individual it is a great way to spend some time.
I'll look into the scheduling of the event as the only problem for me is the location and possibly the time.

this is probably the main concern for all the guys from out of town
the event is AUGUST 10th & 11th a Saturday and a Sunday
what are your thoughts on this Curtis they haven't given anyone a setup time yet so hard to tell when that will be i guess i will have to start asking about this

what my thoughts were is have some tables displaying the tanks i would need to know what ones you were bringing so i can make display cards describing the tank so people can read what they are and if they have any questions we can just answer them
then i want to have an area set up to demonstrate IR battles the pic of the area we have shows approx. where we would be and there is suppose to also be guys with 1/6 scale tanks there we are to share the area so i need Frank to get in touch with his guy out here we have to get together to arange how this battle field will be to support both different scale tanks

No Issues Glen, I can drive.
Let's get together and discuss at the next battle day.

Stinger

let me confirm availability first. I would drive down and stay at a Hotel so that isn't a major concern. the biggest concern for me is having the time to go.

i have room for a couple of people if they want to stay here

i had some cards made up for myself to get things going around here you guys may want to get some i got these cost me around $30 for 250 and then i waited until they had free shipping then ordered them from Vistaprint

I don't think the 1/6 guys are running tanks, but I could be wrong. I believe they will doing a more like diorama display. Will check with Frank on this.

Don't you think the card should read :

RC Tanks
RC Military Vehicles
And
Static Model and Diorama
Building

When you put "or" sounds like your not sure which one...lol we do this or that...umm not sure which.

Dunno...I just thought it read funny.

the or represents whatever the other person wants to do i didn't want people to think they had to just do RC stuff

Just a reminder to anyone who can attend the the Military Muster on August 10th to 11, any help will be greatly appreciated. 
Even if you can't make it for the whole weekend, a day would be awesome.

We will be have an indoor display area so weather will not be a concern.

I have built six new buildings and gathered 52 trees for the event, and still working on some other stuff with Airbrushler.
