November 22, 1-4ish, Save the date

Location: Shrewsbury Lanes

There will be food, the Mishifts will be providing Pulled Pork goodness, we are looking for others to help with a signature side dishes??? There will also be dishes for those whom do not eat meat, ideas wanted or if someone wants to handle this task would be fine as well.

There will also be some acoustic music from a band that Bobby Carver is in, kinda Bluegrass / Americana, we are encouraging anyone that plays a to bring an instrument and sit in if they wish.

Sheila will be bringing her sewing machine to sew rally patches etc...

We are looking for ideas Idea Question . But thinking a some sort of bowling challenge between different clubs???? There has been talk of some wanting to play poker??? Possible air guitar or guitar hero contest???
So we need input on what may make this fun for all.

There will be a raffle and possibly a 50/50 raffle as well. Anyone with anything to offer for the raffle, it is for a good cause.

While all the details are not sorted out, input please. We do know we have a local rider who needs the hand in his time of need. We also know that together we can all have a great time coming together to help.

I look forward to seeing SLSC, 30 Day Scooter Gang, and the Mishifts coming together to make this a success.

Thoughts, comments , and ideas please..... Save that date!!!! For those who may not attend please donate what you can...

This fundraiser is a great idea. Very thoughtful. Let me know how I can help.
I guess maybe we should all meet up sometime in the near future to discuss this in greater detail.

I have things to put in the raffle as well.
Otherwise, all I have to say is Embarassed Very Happy Embarassed Very Happy Embarassed Very Happy Embarassed
It's really nice to see the community come together to support any of us who have met extremely difficult circumstances, whether it's MJ, myself, or whoever else needs support next. No way in a million years would I normally think that I've got such people behind me who would step forward like this, and it's very humbling to realize that I do. Thank you.
I look forward to seeing everyone there. It's guaranteed to be a rad time. Smile

That sounds great, one thought might be on stuff that only fits certain model scooters would be to list it in the for sale area and then donate the proceeds to the cause, or we can just add then to the raffle???? just a thought to try to maximize the value and get exposure to the right folks...

Had a lady from modern vespa ask me if she wanted me to sell her things and give the cash to Myke or send them for the fundraiser I told her to send them to me and I would bring them for the raffle the things that she is giving us are things like jackets and apparel so I thought it would be nice to have for the raffle. For things like julians windscreen I could see being a better idea to sell first than someone winning that could have no use for it.

This event is coming up quickly. Anyone have a Rock Band game set-up. The Mishifts challenge anyone to try to out-rock us.

I will plan to bring some homemade deliciousness, like cookies, that are easy to eat and won't mess up anyone who intends to bowl!

Julian has already given me some good recipe ideas... Wink

Yes, I had to add my input. She loves to bake and I love to eat. I'm quite sure that plate of cookies will be visited by quite a few fingers during the event. In fact I may have to bring something myself.

Corazzo has sent some nice stuff, Fulmer has sent some good stuff, there will be some sweet Blues tickets among other stuff I will list as I can. St. Louis Vespa has helped as always. This will be an awesome United Effort from the St. Louis Scooter Scene for a fallen rider. I encourage folks to stop on by, even if it is for a quick bite while you are getting your Sunday ride in. Even if you do not know Myke come by see friends and meet new ones too...
