ezapar Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 Ken and I will be taking a trip to Hood River to talk out the details with the Fairgrounds people. Please speak up with questions you'd like us to present. Any suggestions? Anything you'd like to see happen? ie: stereo competition, beer tasting, etc. . .? On topic stuff appreciated.

GeneralDisorder Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 Bugaru and I have found some wonderful trails down here about 1.5 hours from hood river..... we would love to show you all around up in there. We can go in search of closer stuff to the event location, and have a good knowledge of what's around that area too. Since hood river is so close for us, we would be happy to assist in any way we can. On another note - Bugaru and I are planning to go mudding this next weekend - if you guys are comming down anyway - maybe you would like to play too? Maybe we could organize something....

ru4x4ever Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 A Beer tasteing booth would be cool for all the areas brewerys!! Someone should look into that. Especially for us dark beer people. -Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soobme Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 A tug of war comp. with the 4x4 cars would be cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flowmastered87GL Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 A stereo competition may be cool, BUT if this is at the fairgrounds where the rallycrosses happen there ARE neighbors. Would it fly ok with them? I just wanna see Subaru Styles beat out all the guys with Imprezas The beer tasting would be cool if it was organized, but then the OLCC would be there possibly (and you dont want em there!), so maybe that part is just best left unorganized and a bunch of us just show up with what we want Friday night. (I found a new beer thats $9.50 a bottle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NV Zeno Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 This isn't really meant to be directed at the fairgrounds folks, but could you see if there's a nearby coin-op carwash? Also, camping availability, showers, etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edrach Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 This is the closest link I could find to the Hood River Fairgrounds. http://www.hoodriver.org/HRCCC_MemberTemplate.asp?MemberINDX=68&CategoryINDX= There is camping available at the fairgrounds. There's certainly a car wash available in nearby Odell (I think). You'll find this a great site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddcomp Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 how much will camp spots be or even shady trees to park under and sleep in the car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qman Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 Costs and fees will be discussed. I think what Eric was looking for was other ideas for things that can be done at/on the fair grounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSubaruJunkie Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 Is this place like olympia was? Where we had to drive 20min to the nearest mom & pop corner store for the nearest bite to eat? Seems like everything is getting summed up. I might have to get an RC car to join the fun, would probably be alot less messy than the RallyX we had at WCSS3. I assume there are trails nearby? Off-Road fun could include things like Hill Climb comp's, mud drags etc. If there is a nice large mud pit, we could have Tug-o-war competitions in the mud pit -Brian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edrach Posted March 11, 2004 Share Posted March 11, 2004 Nearest town is Odell about 10 minutes away; Hood River is about 25 minutes. Fairgrounds has a building with real bathrooms and a snack bar possible; not sure if we can arrange that as yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope so. As for food on site, there will be consesions and possible meals available. We'll tell everybody with plenty of notice. If there is not, we'll advise everybody to bring food ahead of time. There are pay-showers and nice bathrooms. Sunday or Monday we'll have a much better idea of how it will go down. We'll promptly drop the old sticky up top and put up an official thread with proper details and stuff. EZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
