Show: FCS 2015 306oc WINS best club.......but how?

[Niall]

Not sure how health and safety works at car shows....but I'd be pretty sure they won't allow a tonne of metal to sit above peoples heads....

Correct Tom and I've been speaking to Mark the past few days with what we can and can't do and i think we would be pushing our luck with this. The club would need its own liability insurance which we just can't afford.

So you moan about the unrealistic and unhelpful approach some have taken to this thread, yet when i try to offer genuine help, you still rattle on about something that will frankly never happen.

Likewise I didn't mean to be whiny, just trying to be realistic.

I really think we need to be looking at maximum impact and originality for minimal outlay both in effort and financially.


I still think mad hatters tea party is an absolute winner and it lets us go mental with colours and balloons and stuff, It's cheap, it doesn't matter if a couple of people don't join in, financially its a really small cost.

Just for ideas balloons are about 50p each to fill with helium. Those balloons that are in the shapes of numbers and letters spelling out 306oc all over the shop. Could do 2 balloons tied to each wing mirror of each car and get them in colours that co-ordinate with the car. Actually we could probably get 306oc balloons printed really cheap. A couple hundred of them would look really boss.

I know this is gonna need funded some how and I'm happy to put in a fair bit of cash but as I assume others are going to help out too why don't we make up a little goodie bag for everyone that helps fund the stand like party bag style to give something back, just a 306oc balloon, special fcs15 306oc sticker, a sachet of lube and some other crappy trinkets to say thanks to people for putting the effort in.


Edit: 500 printed 10" balloons on ebay is £85

Like it Chris.
I was considering setting up a donation pot nearer the time for the stand. That way it can be as good as you lot make it! Im happy to do the organisation but as I'm sure you can imagine, the club isn't made of money seeing as we work on donations anyway so wouldn't be able to fund it out of the usual donation pot.

Balloons are a must. I was just thinking about a load of blue red and white ones in some bunches tied to a few of the cars but i like the idea of the "306oc" ones!
