Pismo13

I haven't been posting to my blog for a while. Typical excuses. well I want to start it back up because many members across the country look for event blogs

Tim and I set out for the Pismo California event on Tuesday October 1 making it to the Park at around 4pm.   Tim set us back with a repair he decided to make on the bus just befor we set sail. We both worked on putting it back together and were on the road within the hour.  Tim and I dont have a good history of working on equipment together so I just kept my mouth shut knowing we had a 4 hour ride ahead of us.

 Once at Pismo I hit the ground running with Phil helping me round up the first 10 of 52 tables we need for the group. We need to throttle taking tables as we learned in the past because this park stays full and new arrivals pre event are some times regular park visitors.  We also need to get the tables off member sites so we will not need to ask if we can use them.  gathering all the tables take quite a bit of time.  we keep the time to under 6 min per table. 6 x 50 = 300 /60 =5 hours. 10 man hours is an effort but the reward is 300 people breaking bread together.

Here is a pic of Phil.  I usually push but we do switch up.

You guys did a great job! This being my first event it was a very good experience. Everyone was so friendly and helpful from day one. Me being a little on the quiet side everyone made me feel welcome. I met some great people and plan to make a few more events this next year. I will be traveling the country next year and this event really made me comfortable with this club. I look forward to meeting more people and next year I will get there early and volunteer some man hours myself. Great event !!

Wow thanks for the kind words everyone ! I am not going to lie, but it does take alot of organizing and planning when putting on a Rally as big as the Pismo Event. We really could not do it without the enthusiasm of our Volunteers who share our vision when we arrive at each rally. The Decorations and Lighting play an important role and is truly a labor of "LOVE" and is one of my favorite parts when putting a Rally together. "EDITING" doesn't have a place in my vocabulary as you can well see, it just adds to the atmosphere of "FUN" at all the events.

Hugs, Tim
