Erik and I will not be able to attend this Monster Jam, we will be in Curacao scuba diving.
Maybe an experienced board member or regular member could step up to be the group leader/liaison between the event coordinator and FingerLakes 4x4

It would be really great if the liaison could be someone who would be able to work the entire time... If we as a club are going to try to make the Syracuse Jam help happen, I\'ll need to save my vacation time for that...
If nobody who can work Thurs-Fri is willing though, I certainly am.
And I\'m in for Friday afternoon Saturday and Sunday of course, as needed.

Since the event is not during RIT break this year, I will not be able to help with setup Thursday and Friday. I will be available Saturday and Sunday, though.

As discussed at the meeting last night, we\'re asking for some additional help from nonmembers. Thanks to Eddie\'s relationship with the Barnyard Boggers we should have plenty of hands for this.
Club members who can commit to working will have first priority but both this and the Syracuse show will be open to others beyond members in good standing so we can help out with these great events and spread the opportunity of standing next to 1500hp monster trucks a little further.

I\'m handing over the reins as the contact person for Monster Jam events to the President, or to whom ever wants the job. I\'ve emailed the show directors with Smike\'s contact info, and he should be hearing from them soon. Good luck with the Rochester show!

Count me in!!! I\'ll be just getting done with work @ 7:30AM, but I get to sleep Friday night before going to Navy Drill Weekend Saturday & Sunday. I\'ll be there by 9AM. Anne can\'t make it to help set-up but she can make the show (she\'ll be working with me Thursday night & she has to work Friday night)

I\'ll be taking Thursday off to \"lead\" the Thursday crew, and Chip also volunteered while on the poker run yesterday. I just talked to two guys from Barnyard as well, Jason is going to ask around for a few more hands Sunday but other than that I think we\'re in very good shape.
Thanks everyone!
Saturday - Chris, wife Wendy & Norm from Barnyard Boggers ~8:30 arrival Friday - Jason +3 from Barnyard Boggers, 5pm or a bit after

I can only make it on Friday, sorry if I wasn\'t clear. If I worked the set-up Thursday and Friday I\'d be up for over 2 days straight.

I hate to say this with such a tight crew number but you may want to make me a maybe. I picked up one hell of cold or flu or something, so I\'ve been couch-bound the last 2 days. If I wake up feeling better I\'ll definitely be there.

We\'re hurting for parade/pit party rigs. Chip\'s bringing a clean XJ, and I\'ll have my Dakota but at this point that\'s about it. And I don\'t know if I can get my Dakota clean for tomorrow\'s show.

Roadblock is clean. Has a hose, soap, buckets, sponge, couple towels in it. Couldn\'t find my nozzle...
See y\'all around 4:30-5. I\'ll get there as soon as I can.

10:00-10:30 arrival Saturday. No more help needed. Probably 9:00 Sunday and we could use a hand.

I am going to have to back out today. I must have either eaten something bad or got a stomach bug as I am sick as a dog this morning

Ended up working today. Pretty tired, but let me know if you\'re short handed.

Thanks again, everyone. Couldn\'t do this without all your help, and I think we really did a stellar job - and the crew agreed :)

Best part of the pit parties was talking to people about Smike\'s buggy.. well talking to the dad\'s who were interested and wanted to know more while the kids were dragging them to see GraveDigger.
