Yearly RC show, Indiana - NEW INDY
Alright folks, time to call your bluff.
The management team and other show promo to rs liked us so much at Lebanon this Spring that they have asked us to work with them for a re occurring yearly show. Q - When ? Late January. Every year. Without fail. Ours reserved. Right now late Jan. is open. Most any other time of year we fight with others. And if we get a year under our belt then we have first rights to the standing date. Q - Where ? No one county fair grounds, Indiana. Right off of I65, 30 minutes north of Indianapolis. Plenty of space, plenty of parking, good hotels, lots of food choices. The space is great. Clean buildings, lockable, clean restrooms. Etc. Check out these threads for recent shows. http://www.rctruckandconstruction.co...ad.php?t=12385 http://www.rctruckandconstruction.co...ad.php?t=11044 Q - Why ? We've all been bickering for years as to why we can't have a big show of our own. Well we have our chance, its ours for the taking. Some of you heard about our fall out with toy trucker. Some have read their articales explaining our greediness. Some have even been contacted by toy trucker to do a show or two with them. In all we decision makers got fed up with funding their business so we had a place to play. As it was we were entertainment for their customers, as guests, but were expected to note than cover expenses. Now its our show. I expect to share the space with Rc clubs. The bigger we get, the more space we get. We cover our costs and not line anyone's pockets. Q - Space - is there enough??? Yes we have plenty. The room we were in for the garden show was as big as what we get at 'Indy'. We have direct access to twice that to start with an additional 12 thousand square feet more. So yes we have plenty. If our first year is low on attenedence we might have to use a smaller building, but we still have first rights. But I figure we can nearly fill the 2x Indy rooms now and edge into the larger very quickly. Q - Rubber or Dirt? Both, the building is technically the show arena. So they bring in dirt or saw dust regularly. They are willing to put dirt aside in the summer and hold it till January so it stays thawed just for us. With so much available space indoors under one roof, we can truck back and forth or whatever. (Continued next posting) |
