Maybe you could send them a PM invite...

I can't believe that there is only my son and I from northeast area of MA..
Good idea, Don, checking the member list shows that there are approximately 2600 members from MA, 450 from RI, 300 from VT, 1600 from CT, and 850 from NH
I don't know how many of those are active on various threads, or how many are members of the NE Chapter...don't have the time or energy to manually check ...but it shows there is vast potential to breathe some life into this chapter. Everybody who posts needs to "Birddog" for new members...flush them out...encourage them to sign up and participate!!!

I tried that already for the Greenfield. And I think lot of these guys are not into it or have bought Chevy's or what ever the case is..I can try to it again. But it takes a lot of time and I will have to do a little here and a little there.

Ok everybody if we can all get back to business at hand here. Lets all pull together and plan a meet.


How about Mohegans. Maybe someone can hit the jackpot and buy a new truck afterwards..

How about ideas from other members..

What about a girls in bikinis truck wash meet? The only problem is I don't know any hot chicks to do the job.

I wonder if Hooters does car wash events...

I was pretty bummed that I couldn't make the Greenfield meet. As long as the next one's not on a training weekend I'll be there. I like the idea of a BBQ at a state park. Mohegan sounds good too, but a state park doesn't have the risk of someone driving away broke.

The car wash wouldn't be a bad idea for smaller local events. Take donations and then pool it all together to put towards another big meet.
