My post rally thanks list goes far and wide and I'll certainly forget some folks. I spend almost all of my time at the corner of campground and vendor field doing my quirky, self appointed registration tasks. This was the first rally in years where I could just get up and walk away and the registration function just keep on clicking away. I was pleasantly surprised to have so many folks just hang around there and mingle. Folks that I can remember assisting were Phil2968, Wheelspinner, Clintogf, SWBRADLEY, Microjeep and I would guess a few more that I can't recall. Spicy and Streamline stepped up in a big way again. Despite all the flak that Spicy gives me, she did provide us with the first hundred badge holders. I think I'm going to try to up that amount to 300 next year! She and Streamline also made a nice banner so folks would know where registration was. Each year they provide whatever signs we need at their expense. Thank you!
The folks that work behind the scenes to make this event premier exceeded expectations again. Those involved worked masterfully at their task to make each attendee feel at home. Durhamtown threw in a few extra challenges and we were able to work through them seamlessly.
SCSG-G4 and Wreckerman893 worked their fingers to the bone to provide meals starting Wednesday eve right through Sunday breakfast. Their staff of dedicated volunteers has exceeded expectations again. Some of the names that come to mind are; Pam, Spicy, Poppop, Bamalady, Microjeep and a host of others. Besides his very busy position as paramadic, Tigger also was the Chief Head Counter at the MKT.
Dangerfiled Inc (Jason) did a low country boil Wed eve to supplement the MKT and it was quite a spread. I was tickled to see so many folks scooping up so much shrimp. Left plenty of potatoes onions and sausage to be consumed by folks like me who aren't a seafood fan.
As usual, Tigger was our on site paramedic. Not only did he provide that service for us, he did so for the entire off road park and was kept quite busy. I think he is one of the reasons that our relationship with Durhamtown stays in good standing. Thanks Matthew and take a break.
It was another great rally for all to enjoy. We learned a few things and found out that most of the changes were positive.
Now it's time to call someone out. This rally was the first time I met Microjeep. This guy couldn't volunteer enough. No matter what area of the rally you went to, he was there working. I'd say he had a great time but that will be up to him to confirm. When he wasn't working he was helping other members do stuff. Thanks Mike for all your assistance, you have been noticed.
Until next time, thanks everyone!
