A UK MEM Display Day?

(1/38) > >>

Ramon Wilson:
Hi Guys,

Some of you may recall that sometime back Jo thought we UK based members could perhaps get together on an occasional basis but unfortunately there was insufficient uptake to make it worthwhile.

Musing on this I wondered if that was maybe just once a year and possibly at an event already being held that there might be sufficient interest to make something happen.  I suggested to Jo that perhaps we could put on a display at the Guildford show and asked her to see what the response would be from the powers that be.

Today I received a very positive email from event 'co-ordinator' Bryan Finch indicating that he can provide three to four 6ft by 28" tables (inside a marquee) one of which would be used by Jo should she wish to follow on from her demo of last year - Jo? If there's enough response I'm sure we could make that the four  ;)

So - here's an opportunity to get together to talk engines and display our wares to the public and help put MEM a bit more on the map.

The event takes place this year on July 5th and 6th. It would be nice if you can make both days but that's NOT a prerequisite - if you can only make one of them that's just fine but we do need to know what kind of input we could expect. Please, do be realistic - don't just think that sounds like a good idea and say you'll come then decide otherwise later. If you really would like to be part of it though just respond to this in the first instance so we can gauge the kind of response - we can decide on space requirements a little later.

I think it should be made clear that this is very much about MEM members - all of them, whatever their skills and level of expertise - if you are a member but feel a little reticent then don't be. A display of what we are about needs to include every level so don't be shy.

Personally I think this would be good if we can make this happen so I look forward to hearing from at least someone  - now, don't y'all rush at once  ;)

Regards - Ramon

I'm interested in this - probably can't make both days but no reason why not one of the days.

If I were there...I'd go.
Videos and pics are obviously a must.
I can suggest a model to attract attention and show off those engines.  :naughty:

Johnb:
I can be there on Sunday.

tangler:
Good idea.  I'm available both days and can do some preparatory work as well.  I might even have a finished exhibit by then  8)
