    Fri-Fri would work, and then ppl could come whenever their schedule will allow, with the main events happening during one of the weekends??

    I'm figuring, assuming we can get vendors on board we'll plan on having the fest on the first weekend followed by trailing and truck fun the rest of the week!

    @Jsena it's over 6 hours for me. We can facetime the entire way if I need to sweet talk you out of panicking during the "long drive"

    I gotta say that this Toyota's in Moab could be a huge success like Tundra's to Sedona. There were so many vendors and they all donated A LOT of stuff each. It was frickin' awesome.

    You should call @KevinK and see what he did to get so many vendors to give away all that. He's a cool guy and would def give some pointers to you.

    The way he set it up was a raffle we bought tickets for. All proceeds from the raffle tix went to charity. Each participant placed any number of raffle tix into the bag of each item to be raffled off. We had lights (every different kind of light and many of them), Grille, tons of stuff. I wanna say Kevin set it up that way so the vendors can donate as if it was going to charity and write it off on their taxes. This is just the beginning.

    WE should also set people up with the opportunity to be able to communicate while doing trail runs. SDHQ sells these great little HAM radios that work awesomely while trail running and they are only $40 each. I would advise ppl who want to run trails to get some radio's if they don't already have them. SDHQ may even donate some, although I would hit them up for other donation stuff.

    I think this ^^^ is a great idea and if @KevinK wanted to throw some ideas out we can work to handle the communications. As a matter of fact, I would throw my hat in the ring as support towards moving towards making contact with vendors....IF that's where we want to go with this.

    @FlashCulprit started this idea. Let's hear if his goal is something to that scale.

    Back in Arizona. Again.
    Vehicle:
    SGU - Speed Glampers Uberfahrt
    Tundras to Sedona
    I'll sub to the shenanigans. I'm not sure we can pulloff another week this year, but what the hell. We're thinking of heading to Denver from Phoenix in July on (as close as is possible) all dirt roads. Then we have an Uberfahrt Moab trip in October.

    This could be a good addition to the schedule.

    The more vendor support we have the better turn out for Toyota's we will be able to turn out. The better the odds of someone winning something the more will show. In a way this thing could be way bigger than Sedona. Sedona was Tundras only, which is cool, but with Moab if we did do Toyota's our market is much bigger now!!

    So @KevinK is what you are saying that the vendors will have a hard time supporting something or you yourself have a hard time supporting another event?

    I agree 100%. I'm certainly not opposed in any way. With only 2 month lead time I wonder if we have enough time to promote enough to round up the number of Toyotas to get to that level.

    I've certainly been wrong before though.

    Here's where I'm at with that:
    Being a new meet i'm trying to keep myself grounded and push the envelope as far as I can. I want this to be on scale with that of Jeep week; cause lets face it... We have the numbers. Just no one organizing such an event.

    I'm currently working with some friends in high places that support organizations like Jeep safari week that have very very similar set ups and a lot of success from them (even to the point of having Jeep give away 3 wranglers a couple years back). I think it's very obtainable to have around 10 larger vendors and a handful of mom and pop shops that are willing to pitch in and show off... I do strongly feel that we could work in charitable aspects as well (this is perhaps the most important part in my eyes).

    @KevinK I'd love to have your input on how we can make this THE offroad toyota meet to be excited nation wide about. I've organized car shows before but nothing off road (mostly bmw meets with >300 participants) @Almaboy @TruckinIt seeing your enthusiasm makes me even more excited and I think I could really use your input and assistance in getting the ball rolling on the odds and ends if you're up to it. Currently... There are no major all toyota meets that fit this criteria. This could be the big one we've all been waiting for assuming we can get the numbers, the vendors, and a really strong plan to accommodate as many members on and off the forums as we can.

    I'll start a PM for us to chat on and iron out some of the details. :thumbsup:
