Exclamation Promotional help please

Hi guys

As you know we are holding the Shelbyfest on the 22 - 24th of March at Winton Raceway in the fabulous Benalla region of Victoria and we are keen to get as many Ford enthusiasts along as possible.

To that end I am looking for a little help...

If you know anyone that may be interested in attending, let them know that Saturday will be the main track day and they are welcome to come along. It is totally free entry to the track and the pits.

If they have a classic Ford ask them to bring it along and tell friends to come along with their classic cars also. Again it is a totally free day....

Classic cars can park within the pit area below the top garages....

Please let all your friends know about the Shelbyfest.

Importantly, if they want to participate and have a Shelby type category car advise them to apply on line on the a victorian Cobra Club site - Shelbyfest.

......

Shelbyfest

Saturday 23rd March

Winton Motor raceway Hume Highway turnoff Benalla Victoria

Free entry to track and pits

Bring your Classic Ford car

Starts 0900



Saturday the 23rd is the main public promotional day.

Bernie, would the local radio stations around Albury or Wang give it a free plug.I've been to the last 5 Shelbyfests as a spectator and i'm just curious if the car club has ever considered catering it themselves eg bbq and cold drinks, nothing to grand.

Sorry I have been talking with Peter H.

He just sent out a group email over the weekend to all GT40 club members.

Will chase him up.

Thanks

Bernie

Thanks mate, I have been in touch with the OMD media group whom are the advertising media agency for my company.

There have been both Press Releases and 30 second radio grabs prepared for the three radio stations at Benalla, Wangarratta and Albury. The releases go to the papers the first week of March with photos etc.

My agency guys will follow up with calls to the papers and the radio stations re the radio adds. My company is sponsoring this along with print and magazine adds, this is part of our community budget surplus.

What I need is some internal club promotion to Ford clubs and any individuals to either enter and compete or fire up their mates and club members to come along on the Saturday.

This individual follow up and club follow up is where I need a little help.

I was reluctant to respond on the issue of food until I could make a call.

Winton has a catering facility that provides very reasonable food at market prices. As they have a contract for food supply within the entire Winton race way circumscribe, we can only provide food and drink for free. Even then we would be giving them some opposition at no charge. As they open and look after us each day time and they are a commercial entity we try and support them.

Would be good to make a few dollars selling food..... I know a few people who know how to do this quite well..

Just looking for you guys to contact any friends you have that may be interested in attending.

Particularly, if they are part of a club, as I want to get as many like clubs along on Saturday....

They are obviously welcome on the Friday and Sunday. But as you know the main track day is Saturday, with us at the Wangarratta livestock sale yards on Sunday.

Thanks all..

Bernie

I have contacted a friend who is a moderator on "Ford Forums". He tells me that he will put the word out to the Ford clubs via that medium
