A week or two ago I mentioned that we should have a traveling summer Rupp show. After talking to a quite a few people, everyone thought it was a good idea. No one really stepped forward however to say lets start at my place. Well since it was kind of my idea, and I have enough room for it, how would all of you guys like to come to Michigan for what could be and should be a summer traveling show? We could move to a different location every year. Draw names from a hat if you want. There are lots of us in this hobby and lots of us could host a gathering. Maybe not at our houses, but at a local park or a place close to our homes. Even if ten of the over 100 people on here could do it, then we could all start planning for future shows. Not just sleds, but all rupp stuff. Even non rupp collectors would be welcome to come visit. I would like to hold it on the weekend after the fourth of July every year. That way it is always the same time and people can use the fourth as a reminder. Lets hear some feedback on this idea. Any thoughts would be great.
I was also thinking of some games for the kids and other things to doo besides just talk sleds all weekend.....any ideas out there?
You can brings any rupp parts and your friends too!
Facts about my location:
Close to highway (three minutes)
Eight (8) acres to park on and ride on
Primitive camping welcome
Would rent port-a-johns for weekend
Can have a concession stand brought in or cook our own
900 feet for drag racing if not to hot
Might even find some fireworks!
