DEC TOY RUN

Has a date been set for the Toy Run this year?

 

The 12th is a Thursday?

 

Our toy run is December 14 and we're working on the route now.

What she said!

S

 

I'm in. 2 cars, 4 people.

 

Which one, Tillman?

Seriously - do we need to do this twice in two weeks?

I have always supported Don and Carolyn and the great job they have done -

And yes, thank you for Ferrari of Dallas of Dallas -

But - is not this a time to get everybody together and work together?

 

Well, it is nice that Ferrari didn't choose to compete with the original again...

 

I'm looking forward to both events. I thought last year was perfect. I can't think of a better way to help out with two groups of kids. Plus, twice as many opportunities to drive some beautiful roads and exercise the car before the long winter months. We'll be there for both.

 

I would be available for the Toy drive on the 14th, but unavailable for the one on the 7th.

 

I could not have said it better Don. It's a win for everyone mainly the charities!!

 

I don't have the time to do both, will do the FCA event since I've only missed one in all these years. I'm personally glad they aren't competing any more!

 

Same here. I will see you all on the 14th.

 

Well said! I'm in for the FCA event for sure and likely the Boardwalk event.

 

I ask again - is it really necessary to do TWO events when there is already one well-established event that has been very successful in the past?

Sorry to ruffle any feathers, but that is the way I see it, and that is the way I call it.

 

I think it is a good idea for both of the runs to co-exist. It is after all for the local kiddos that will not have much of a Christmas. Carolyn and I will certainly try to support both of the runs, but we will probably be doing a trial mock run the previous weekend. Although we pretty much have everything "mapped" out you never know what will happen with the roads in the last week, ah hem as we all know from last year.

Two runs in two weeks, lots of gas, lots of miles, lots of toys, lots of smiles what a way to end the year.

 

Well said, Don.

 

There are people on BWF's email list who are not on the FCA's email list and there are people who are on the FCA's email list who are not on BWF's email list. It includes more people to have both.

This also allows people to go to one rally if they are busy during the other.

This also allows the kids to win more. Who cares if there are two meets? More kids get to have a better christmas as a result of having two. Of course we get to have fun but the really victory of these toy runs is the kids getting a present for christmas.

You don't have to participate in both but realize there is a huge upside to having both- more people get to participate in a fun rally and more kids get toys.

 

I think it's great to have access to two events on separate weekends, gives us an option if travel or another event gets in the way.

 

I'm bummed - outa town the weekend of the FCA Toy Run. This will be my first time to miss it since joining the club. Might make the BW run but not sure at this point... I trust the rest of you guys will represent

 

Don- Please mark me down for two people, one car.

Do I need to bring the bug and tar remover? Lol.

 

Don, I'd like first group departure again please!

 

All requests will be taken into consideration, can't control that nasty bug or skunk issue, however, no tar will be involved ! ! !

 

Is the FCA one still open to outsiders (Porschephile's)?

We would love to do both, but we're out of town the weekend of the 7th.

 

if anybody runs across a F430 red, with black interior stock 1/17 scale module, please PM me... All the ones I have seen have the tan interior OR has the challenge stickers all over them

Thanks in advance
