Since Navy has resigned as President of the Great Lakes Chapter, Strobin is willing to take over the Chicago area, and I am willing to get something going in WI, if any body wants to. I would still like to continue meeting with the Chicago Chapter once a month or every other month, in addition to local meets. Any suggestions, ideas, feedback?

Mdz66 - I would like your input. And if there are any other youppers out there that might be interested, please let me know.

Hi Jen, I would love to help or even be a part of the Wis group. I think I could even get a couple others to bring down. I am not a leader but a damn good follower (not 85 mph in snow and slush) ha ha ha!! With spring just around the corner, lots of fun to be had. Let me know what I can do besides tag,tag and tag some more. I have seen lots of Avs in Green Bay, maybe road trip to tag is coming soon >:D >:D Thanks, Matt
 
Tagging is good. I have already advised many interested Chicago Area members to start taggin, as their contribution to the club. Many have done so and I greatly appreciate all the effort.
 
I may do the tagging on sunday in Green Bay I will hit the malls,Home Depot, Menard's, Fleet Farm and the Casino. If you live in Green Bay and don't have your ambers in your getting tagged!! ;D ;D So wash your Av!! :cool:
 
Good luck! I'd say I tagged about 25 AV's so far, and only 1 has joined the club (that I know of). Very depressing. How can they not want to be a part of this?

I may try and set up a mini-meet the weekend of the 29th. I am thinking Brookfield. That's pretty central.
dhaluzak & RsqAV, could you make it? If so, give me a day/time
 
Hey fellas. We have had a member or two from Wisconsin take interest in the Twin Cities (Minneapolis/St.Paul) contingent. Since we are on one side and you MI/IL folks are on the other and there doesn't appear to be that many Badgers in the club yet, should we slice the state down the middle? It doesn't make sense for Eau Claire folks to head East nor does it make sense for Madison/Milwaukee folks to head West.

I know there's about 4 of us in the Milwaukee area that may be interested in a Chapter, and Mdz66 who is just across the MI border. I have not heard from any Madison AVs. We currently hang out with Chicago, but I thought maybe a few more would come forward if there was something a little closer. I agree, Eau Claire is a lot closer to you! As long as every body knows they are welcome at both, I think the members can decide which way they want to go. They pretty much do that already. If we do get a Chapter together we will be really small, and I still planned on heading to Chicago once and a while for meets. It might be fun to head out by you guys once and a while too. You know, the more the merrier. And a lot more MOD ideas!!

I'm going to give it a week, and see what kind of response I get. Otherwise, we'll leave it as is untill I see more WI AV's on the board.

If you have any suggestions on getting things organized, I would appreciate them.

Thanks!
Jennifer
 
Jennifer - I am very new here, but for what it is worth would enjoy becoming active and supporting a WI group. I have spoken to Jaime and expressed the same. I live in the Eau Claire area and of course would like a group close by - but a road trip once in a while is appealing since buying my AV !!!!!!

You are welcomed to come our way anytime. Looks like we are actually going south for our next get-together. Going to Iowa for an event Ahhyeah is planning.

hsesupv, Welcome to the club! I am happy to see another WI AV. I would like to make it to Avalanche, WI this summer, which is right below you some where, and might be fun for a meet. I have some research to do on that first. If we get a Chapter going, you are welcome to come to any of our meets, as all AVers will be! As for now, you can always stop in to a Chicago one... that's a 5 hour road trip at least, hey?

jamie, I wanted to go to Iowa's GTG but the 15th I just can't get out of my plans. I can live without the indoor go carts, but can you imagine the cool pics with a bunch of AVs on the bridges? Dammit! Oh, well. You guys take lot's of pics! I will try to make it to Iowa if they do something in May with the Living Farm thing.

I know Jryther is cooking up something good for the Spring in the Twin Cities area so watch for that one.

I think a WI Chapter would be a great idea.
I live in New Berlin and would like to meet some AVers in the area.

I am so happy to hear from you! So you have been sneaking around since October, hey? ;) Well, welcome to the club! You don't by any chance have a red AV... do you? Is this you? I am waiting to hear from a few more locals before I set up an unofficial meet. Keep your eye on this thread. BTW, Rsq_AV is also from your area.
Hope to see you soon!
Jen
 
Well Jen they are coming out, Mcauto for one. I am doing my Green Bay tagathon sunday and see what happens. How many do you think I can get?? 10? I will bring 15 brochures just in case. I think I got us a new member tonight.
 
Matt, That's cool! WOOOOO HOOOO! I think the most I tagged in one day was 4. I took a day off of work and drove around some business and industrial parks in the neighborhood. MEDICMAN is the only one we tagged that joined, and that was at a bar in the middle of the night. ;)

Jen
 
Yeah I didn't tell wife why I am going yet. She did buy my new billet grille though for Valentine's Day. My printer is now making funny noises on the 15th copy. :8: :8:Oh well time for the 3 in 1 or 4 in 1 ???
 
The red AV is not me, I own a Indigo Blue one.
But I have seen a red one parked in the front lot at work and I don't even know who owns it. Thats preaty bad hay ?
Gona tag it Monday.

dhaluzak? ?Rsq_AV? ?Where are you! ?Opinions?
Here I am. Sorry, didn't know about this thread. If I don't see something on the start up page, I usually miss out. Found this one by accident. I would be up for something more local. I don't mind driving down to Ill., but local would be better. Brookfield sounds great, 15-20 min from my house. Heck, I might even have you all over for a cookout this summer. It would be nice not to be the only AV in the subdivision. (for just a couple of hours)

Hey Jen, If I don't respond to the thread right away, throw me an e-mail at home and at work. Work will get you a faster reply......usually.

Hey, the warm weather the last couple of days gave me a chance to put some of my Christmas presents on my AV. Ventvisor window vents, Stripeman inserts, tailgate letters and windshield decal. Still waiting on my stainless bug shield. Still have an insert for that.

Let me know what is going on. See everyone then.

OK, Since it's not you, there is another secret member out there! ;) ?Maybe it IS the red one in your parking lot! ?I have PMed Strobin' about one last GLAV ?meet at D&B's in March. ?I will contact you all about something up here. ?Any objections to Sunday, 2:pm March 2 ChiChi's on Bluemound?
 
Fantastic! Did you get to talk to any of them, or just drop off a flyer? Hey. You have any interest in coming down next weekend if WI has a mini-meet?
jen
 
Sounds good to me.
I know the manager at Burger King on Moreland & Coffie and he let another car club meet up there once a week. I don't think they would have any problem with us meeting up there. He even let the other club put postings about there meets in the store.
Just a thought. I could talk to him if you want me to.
