Once the rally became a "thing" (2009 ish), our overriding thought was always to make it something that everyone could enjoy.
If all you want to do is sell stuff, we've tried to encourage that by intentionally never charging for vendor spaces. Wanna' bring a 53' tractor trailer? You'll have...
You know, I've never really considered this aspect of the rally. Because I'm so close to it, I think maybe sometimes I see it in a different way than participants.
So, when we started, it was a cookout in my backyard. No swap meet, just come hang out, talk army trucks. Second year, or the...
I forgot to say this:
Much, much thanks to our friend Hill (HROT here on SS). As soon as we met Hill, we tricke......... he volunteered to help us with the rally. He helped shoot the convoy before we had a professional and this year, he met us at D-town at almost 8 o'clock at night and he...
I'll be honest, I've worked 7 days a week for the last 6 months and I was still a day late to my own rally. If I wasn't obligated to be there, I wouldn't have made it this year.
We talked about this some at the tent and we think it's just that the economy is humming along and people have a lot...
Multimedia thread is up, so add all your pictures and video here: https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showthread.php?172846-Official-2017-Ga-Military-Vehicle-Rally-multimedia-thread-17GMVR
It is absolutely, 100% acceptable for folks to bring their civvy vehicles.
I haven't had a chance to go out there. I'm trying but I'm working 7 days a week right now. Just no time.
To be safe, I'd say no later than about 9:45am. You will need to check in at the registration tent and let us shoot a picture of your insurance card and then get in the line for the convoy. I think we begin lining up at 10:30.
Alright everyone, we're a month out now. The rally officially begins on the 18th of October so a month from now, many of you will be on the road, headings towards Durhamtown Plantation.
I want to take this opportunity to issue a few pieces of advice, reminders, etc.:
A. Make sure your vehicle...
We have a very big announcement today: For 2017, Memphis Equipment has agreed to sponsor our event. We're very happy to be working with Memphis again; they were one of our primary sponsors in 2016.Memphis Equipment has been in business since 1946 and they are one of the largest, if not the...
The rally attorney is on vacation, when he gets back in a couple weeks, I am going to schedule a sit down with him and see if we can post the forms online and let people do them ahead of time. I'll post in this thread when I get an answer.
If we can't do this, then you'll fill out the...
Ok folks, sorry this took so long. I like to try and put these threads out about 6 months before the event, but it just didn't happen this year. Also, yes, I will pressure our videographer to finish editing all the 2016 footage. He does this for free and it's hard for me to really lean on him...
