cmcveay Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 Well, it must be time to start thinking about the 10th Anniversary of MINIs on the Dragon 'cause here we are, talking about events! This year, DCMM will be leading one of the drives at the Dragon and we'd like to reach out to the club membership that's going to Fontana for help. We (DCMM) will be leading a drive to visit Briday Veil Falls and Dry Falls and we are looking at doing this on Thursday (May 3rd) at 7 a.m. We'll head over to the parking lot for Dry Falls where the group will stage from and then, we'll have 5-6 cars make the short trip to Bridal Veil falls for a kodak moment. Those waiting can take the short walk down to Dry falls for another photo op. If anyone is willing to help with this, volunteers are greatly appreciated. Please RSVP if you are going to the Dragon and would like to lend a hand. 2014 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon "Homer" 2012 MB/CR JCW R55 "Merlin" Sold 2009 LB/LB R56 "Archie" Sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kgdblu Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 (edited) what will you need help with? If you need me, I'll be there... I'm going to lead a Cherohala run on Fri. or Sat. after the panoramic photo. I need a sweeper....more details will follow.

TGGRRR (Ali) Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 We will have to figure out the volunteer jobs needed. The event is listed as max 30 MINIs, but the staging area parking lot by Dry Falls doesn't have 30 spots. So we'll need people to help coordinate the moving of the MINIs to Bridal Veil Falls and back to Dry Falls. I would guess, that is where most of the work will be. Barry wanted us to finalize the details which meant basically picking the lunch place. He gave me 3 suggestions in the area, I picked the BBQ place.

TGGRRR (Ali) Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 In case anyone is curious, this is the restaurant we picked for lunch at the drive (the Franklin location) http://www.fatbuddiesribsandbbq.com/ Tigger 2006 the cabrio and Riversong the 2014 Countryman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dallas Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 I used to live in Mills River, NC not far from Bridal Falls. If any one remembers Alton Brown's Feasting on Asphalt on the food channel several years back. He stopped in a place called Cashiers, NC at Carolina Smokehouse and had what he called one of the best BBQ. Cashiers is a short but twisty drive from Bridal Falls. I will be in DC for your Beltway run and will bring the DVD if someone has a computer, and I have a large scale map of the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poison Ivy Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 Yippie! I'm going and signed up. If there's anythign I can do as a volunteer role and need to relinquish my spot on the registration, please let me know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 (edited) We should probably do a volunteers role call to be sure we know who is planning to help out. I know I'm missing people but I'll start it and then as people respond I'll edit this post with all of the names. So who else was planning to help out?

GreenCactus Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 I am happy to help with logistics before the actual event. I didn't sign up for the run, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SbNimble Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Ali, I am available to help. Btw, do the volunteers participate in the run at all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGGRRR (Ali) Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Ali, I am available to help. Btw, do the volunteers participate in the run at all? Thanks Sherm Oh yes, volunteers will be on the run We'll need to organize the run itself, will probably need two leaders (in case we get broken up) and two sweepers. We'll need people in the middle of the pack to relay on the radios. Once we get to Dry Falls we'll need to organize sending a few cars down to the falls and back which is going to be interesting. The reason for such an early start is we want to get to the park while things are still quiet.

carman63 Posted January 15, 2012 Report Share Posted January 15, 2012 Is DCMM involved in this? http://www.cafepress.com/motd_store.605690424 Just wondering if this will supersede the DCMM MOTD t-shirt we've had made up the past couple of years.

Yes, DCMM was involved with that. We are still going to do DCMM MOTD shirts as we have in the past. I will be posting them here in the next few weeks.
