    what needs changing? what issues were there? i want to know to make it a best as possible.

    things i saw this year that need work.
    -parking lot got a bit messy, we will work thru that better next year
    -show field filled up too fast and cars weren't all in thier classes together, BUT thats cause we grow almost double! so we have ideas to help that next year as well. we grew too fast haha-good problem!

    anything else? and don't say judging sucked, cause you guys did it haha jk.

    thanks for everything guys.....info? feedback etc?

    YOU SHOULD DIAL DOWN THE SUN loljk I remembered sunscreen

    I noticed towards the end of the day, most of the trash cans were overflowing. Not sure how people feel about having a couple cans on the showfield, but it may help the lazybones to properly dispose of their trash!!

    I really had to think hard about what I would change about the show. The only thing i can think of is signs for where the rest rooms are. I noticed a lot of folks confused and thought the one portapotty was it. I directed a few folks but some signs might help next year.

    my van didn't quite fit in a class. watercooled vanagon. i parked next to the aircooled vanagons. i guess you never know how big the aircooled section turns out, but if there are enough ghias/beetles for an airooled class, maybe seperate the busses/vanagons/eurovans into a seperate class?

    in the end, i don't really care. i'm not building a show van, it's just a place to park and chill.

    great show as is

    Lol. Shaggin' Waggon class. The only thing I would say is to have extra garbage cans/boxes. They were placed everywhere, so people did not have an excuse to leave trash, but they did get full quite fast. By what I saw this weekend, Classic is gonna grow even more next year.

    I am still trying to figure out how you guys put on a great show with such minimal staff.

    strippers are people too... wait, nevermind.

    I think if the dunk tank is done again, it should be closer to the food line, this way more can see/participate.

    correct. andrew is a HUGE help each year.

    but thats about it.....each year we don't change to much, just grow. we just know what needs to be done, we all work super hard to make it great because we all love what we are doing. i think next year i may need a few more to add to the crew. i think we may have been at our crew limit this year before we'd go insane.

    I only have a couple things. The trash cans, def need more! Maybe bigger signs for the classes on where to park and what charity you're covering. (i work at The UPS Store, so I can help out in that department!) And when I got to the show I was told that they merged together the Passat class with All Euro. Then when awards were announced, there were winners for Passat class.

    Awesome show, yet again! Had a great time, and got my usual first sunburn of the year.. I actually have zero legitimate complaints.. Maybe a stupid complaint, but the del sol in the mk2 section made a really bad back-drop.

    Awesome show, regardless! It didn't seem to really bother anyone. I liked the grass height too. Made all of our cars look even lower.
