Kate , I don't believe anyone was apposed to the idea. It seemed people were in support of the plan. I suggested it was perhaps a bit late to try and organize anything on a large scale. I also suggested next year might be better, with a parade, involve the police for an escort and invite anyone with wheels so to speak! Lots of things would of course be brought up at meetings before any final decisions were made.
Several people including Joc and I indicated they already supported different events IE: empty stocking,wish tree's, food drives etc.
Now as for the idea that you are not at any level in the club, thats not so. Every member new or old is vital to the growth of the club. The club was formed by people interested in Jeeps, thats our common bond. The club has an executive but it's run by the membership! If you like an idea and want to see it happen, then jump on board and make it so. There is nothing written down that says you have to be an executive to make stuff happen. There have been numerous times that members have created an idea and gotten the full support of the club. Some of the best plans come from idea's presented this way.
I think you would do a great job Kate! Grab it and run with the sucker!
I can get involved, but not this year! Would Joc and I donate an unwrapped gift for a child, dam straight! We do need to make sure we are getting children items they require. Thats why our family buys gifts indicated on our local wish tree.
