2012 Crawling for a Cure planning meeting 1/21/12

Postby Voodoo Chile » Fri Dec 16, 2011 9:34 am

Save the date... Jan 21rd 2012 we will be having our first Crawling for a Cure planning meeting

Location is TBD, but I'm thinking either Worcester or Sturbridge MA. This is the BSJ sponsored Breast Cancer Charity event that was proposed at our Fall meeting. The idea is gestating and we have been doing some brain storming with people on and off the BSJ forum that know how to plan these things which looks to add a lot of weight and scope to the event. In the next few weeks we will pin down the actual meeting location but we will most likely start at 10am where-ever it is.

At the meeting we will review the results of the survey monkey survey and see what ideas resonate with the group and begin to develop a task list and assign people some responsibilities ranging from promotion, fund raising, raffle donation seeking and most importantly event planning. We will also look to define the scope and size of the event at the meeting.

We will be sending out an evite invitation with all those that have left contact in the survey monkey survey or people that respond to the If you want to attend the meeting please send an email to events @ baystatejeepers dot com questions can be posted here or asked on the BSJ email address.
We will continue to collect and compile survey results up until the meeting so feel free to spread the word:

http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/MDYGB39

If the webpage asks you to sign up for something it means that the survey was already completed on that computer as the link should lead directly to the 8 question survey. Feel free to cross post this on your forums. As the sayign goes many hands makes light work and this event is likley to resonate with the non-wheeling public so it can potentially put the NEA in the spotlight in a very positive way. :)

thanks
Jeff and the rest of Baystate Jeepers and NEA affiliated members

Below is a mock up of a potential logo if anyone wants to try their hand at doing better please feel free to share it with us at the events @ baystatejeepers dot com address and we will be able to publicly share and select one for the event.

Outside of the above post I want to thank all the folks at BSJ that have helped in the development of this event as well as Mike White and Jonfund for all of the ideas and thoughts they have shared with us. I think this event has the potential to be a block buster and I already have a good number of people volunteering to help out outside of BSJ representing something like 10 clubs including NEA BOD members. Thanks for your support and I look forward to working with all of you to making this event a success!

Cheers
Jeff :hello:

At long last an update!

A church in my town (Westford MA) offerd up free space and free is good as we have zero money to date LOL. The meeting will be at 10am at the First Parish Church United in Westford MA at 10am on 1.21

if you wish to attend please email events @ baystatejeepers .com
and we will add you to the evite.

Please email if you plan to attend. I will be sending an updated evite on a regular basis. need to go thru the SurveyMonkey Data tomorrow to invte people from there but we need to know how many to expect etc. I should be sending out something tomorrow to a bunch of the folks on this board. Just work is crazy @ the moment...


Thank you for your interest in assisting with the Breast Cancer Fund Raising event. This event was first conceived of by Baystate Jeepers in the Fall of 2011. Since then it has been greatly influenced by a number of people outside the club and we welcome input, feedback, and assistance from anyone in the 4WD community as well as people from outside of our niche.

We are planning a fund raiser for the summer of 2012 and this meeting will help focus the scope, size, and content of the event. We will be reviewing the survey monkey data that has been accumulating since October 2011 ( http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/MDYGB39)
as well as selecting a location and feasibility of various ideas for a number of ideas. This will likely be a "round-table discussion" with a moderator.
The meeting is set to go until 2PM but it’s hard to say if it will go that long or not as this is the first such meeting. An agenda will be created prior to the meeting and there is a public discussion thread in the BSJ forum. Refreshments will be served and lunch will be provided. http://baystatejeepers.com/forum/viewto ... 133#p19133

Just a reminder we are having our fist planning meeting this Saturday. So far I have about 10 people from at least 4 clubs planning to come. many hands make light work and all that. If you would like to help please let me know! We will be coming up with a task list and looking for people to contact vendors and such in the early phase and as we get closer we will need more folks to help with the actual day of event and setup stuff.

thanks for reading!
Jeff
