How many fieros show up last year? I'm thinking of coming down in 2014

If you have it, they will come.

I have missed it for a couple years due to conflict. Made it this past March and really glad I did. I enjoyed seeing old friends and making new ones. I plan on going this next spring if they have it.

Greetings fellow Fiero enthusiasts. Please allow me to introduce myself as the Events Coordinator for the Central Florida Fieros car club.
On behalf of CFF as well as the other local clubs, we welcome you to Central Florida for the 2014 show.

From what I'm hearing there will likely be some major changes in the management of the Fiero gathering in Daytona for 2014.
That's not quite final yet. Time will tell.
I plan on doing EVERYTHING in my power to see that the 2014 gathering is just as much of a success as any of our shows have ever been.
Am I taking the lead role in planning and organizing the show? Not at this time. Am I opposed? No I'm not. There may be others that can do the job better than me though.

What I CAN tell everyone is that there will still be a gathering. We will still have events and door prizes, etc....

So mark your calendars. Get your rooms booked. Get your Fieros road-worthy. And get your butts down here!

If you have any ideas for new stuff or requests for keeping old traditions... speak up.
If you'd like to get rid of something let's hear about that in a PM so that we don't hurt each other's feelings

Thanks and we hope to see everyone in March!

As discussed in another section, it's official that Daytona will no longer be promoted by Frank or Marc.
I won't throw a link to that discussion because it's talking about an event but not in the Events section. Plus discussions in that area of PFF have a tendency to turn ugly. So for the record civilized HELPFUL discussion is welcome here. All the drama crap, there - as always.

Here's where we stand.
Looks like I'm the guy to step up to the plate and organize this endeavor. (unless I hear another volunteer - please???)

First order of business, if you are able and willing to lend a hand with anything at all, send me a PM. I don't care if you're from Florida or not.

Second order of business, let's get a list of cool stuff to do, in the track as well as outside.
Once we have that list volunteers will be required to sign up and sponsor that event or activity. No sponsors, no event. If one person signs up for an event I'll see to it that you have help to make sure your event is a success. I'm not saying you have to pay for it. You will just be responsible for running the event, day of - usually just making sure business owners know we're coming and then get the info to participants so they know what to do. It ain't that hard.

I have already heard from a few that want to help. I've heard from a couple that say I'm crazy for taking it on. So be it. One thing's for sure, I won't be sitting on the sideline whining about not having a Fiero presence at the Daytona show in 2014. If we don't succeed, at least we tried.

I just spoke with the Main event coordinator and he said we'll still be in the same spot as always. We spoke for a while because I wanted to make sure that any of our little side events weren't going to cause them heart burn with their insurance agent. Unfortunately the blind man slalom is a no-go. Anything that involves moving cars would be a no-no. Racing tricycles or pushing gokarts is all good.

So what do you think about tricycle races again? Different clubs from around the world can build their own tricycle and complete in various events. For that matter he thought it would be fun if we threw out a challenge to the other car clubs to build their own tricycles and have a main stage event that they would publicize in the flyer they hand out during the November show. I thought that sounded like an awesome idea to me. What says y'all?

Have some ideas to share and encourage others who also have ideas no matter how out of the box to jump in also !
