Hello Everyone,

For the 10th anniversary of Van-O-Rama, I thought some advance planning was
in order.
At this point, the plan is to hold on the Saturday after Labor Day. It needs
to be a special
day for several reasons:

1) It's our 10th year!

2) In falls on the 25th year of the Syncro

3) It is on September 11, 2010 (i can't get into the significance at this
time)

Anyway, we can have it at Alta Loma Park in SSF, where we held it the last
few times. Or we can have
it in a parking lot near a group of restaurants in the area. Your VOR
organizer happens to know the
owners of two of the businesses in the complex and can get their consent to
use the parking lot.

Here's the thinking. If we use the private parking lot, there should be no
hassles from the Park & Rec
people who do not like automotive events. Plus there is a possibility we
might be able to do a vendor
both or two once more of the tenants in that center gives their consent.
There is even a possibility of
letting a Westy or two stealth camp in the area. The main potential
sponsor is open 24 hours the Friday
before and the whole weekend.

There is a plan on sell T-shirts to commemorate the event. A vendor has been
chosen and art submissions
are now welcome. Winner gets a free T-shirt with their creation. We may just
get my guy to design one.
His work has been on a evrything from rice rockets to Lambos and Porsches.
No VW's yet but he may
soon own a Vanagon (if i have my way).

Suggestions are very welcome at this early stage. Have not discounted the
idea of holding the event in
other locations as long as it is close to San Francisco.
