MMSTA Monthly Meeting July 2011
Ok, any thoughts on what day to gather again in Brighton, Michigan to run our trucks? We have not selected a date for the meeting as yet and are looking for some input from other truckers in the area that may have interest in attending. I know that the Central Plains Club has an event on July 15/16 of July and I have a commitment on July 23. We don't want to schedule any conflicts, so I'd like some input from those that may be in the area, Michigan, from Lansing to Detroit, Toledo, etc. and may have interest in attending/participating. We are not fancy at this point and are just running our trucks/equipment in my driveway. For the equipment I have some "rubber mulch, kitty litter, and sand". We have a few buildings, and I'm "verrrrrry slowly" working on a loading dock. We have set up and small town, more like a "wide spot" in the road to run our trucks. Darryl provides the equipment, conveyor, and weight scale.
Remember, for now we run outside here. I can provide power for chargers, tables, etc. We are just re-starting this group and hope to build the number of truckers in the group. We'd like to hear from anyone with any interest in trucks or equipment. Our goal is to try to meet monthly to run and help each other with ideas, how-to's, and other points of interest surrounding this hobby. Theses monthly gatherings would be in addition to the larger meets put on by other clubs/groups in various locations around the country. Our only intent is to foster the desire of people that want to get into this hobby, so having monthly gatherings in a way to keep the "fires' burning. This is especially true for those that can not attend the larger show/gatherings in other parts of the country. You can post your ideas/answers here or PM either Darryl or I with your thoughts. Lee is very busy with work and not available until later this summer to participate, so Darryl and I are taking the lead. Thank you, Jim Last edited by jjackso5; 06-23-2011 at 08:40 AM.

Re: MMSTA Monthly Meeting July 2011
Well the few, the brave, and the hot met on the 30th in Brighton. We had another potential new guy show up and immediately put a transmitter in his hand. Now we just have to reel him in! Weather was a bit warm, make that HOT! With the 4 of us we ran until about 2 pm and called it a day. We had fun, ran our trucks and took some measurements for a bridge for the group.
We'll post for next month later. If you'd like to join us drop me a pm or respond to this posting. Thanks for looking, Jim |
