Not sure if I will make it or not. Next weekend is kind of busy for me already. I wish Mopar Alley was better about communicating this stuff so those of us with a lot going on can plan for these events.
I use to be an officer in that group many moons ago and remember introducing a few detailed written proposals re: improving and streamlining the annual show/misc events and increasing communication internally & externally. I handed copies out to each officer at the officer’s meeting. As I began going through them, I could see smoke coming out of several people’s ears. Very shortly after, I heard some group speak basically saying that my proposals were too complicated and that they liked doing things the way they’ve always been done. The club has always had a difficult time evolving. The times they are a-changin’ but not so sure if MA is changin’ with it. Hopefully, they can and are.
In Northern/Central CA, there use to be four main Mopar clubs that held annual shows: Mopars Alley, Capital City Mopars, Wine Country Mopars & San Joaquin Mopars. It would be interesting to look at the membership, annual shows and overall health of the clubs today vs 20+ years ago.
