JAE 2009‏

Hi,

Wow July already! And only two months to go to JAE at it's new bigger, better, busier venue!

For 2009, we have taken all the good things from 2008 and kept them but have now added even more for you to do! If we can keep the weather (minus the midges) we should have a really great show.

The date is now Friday 11 September to Sunday 13 September with Thursday open for clubs who want to get there early and set up. Thursday will be an all ticket affair however to prevent too many gatecrashers and let the club people do their thing and get everything organised. By the way the 10th is my birthday so make sure you bring lots of presents if you?re coming early! J

The venue is now Wicksteed Park, after M.I. and another venue found they could not accommodate us. Wicksteed is a fantastic venue and has a lot to offer (http://www.wicksteedpark.co.uk/default.aspx):

Lake
Go-kart oval
Fully stocked fishing lake
Fairground
Roller coaster
18 hole crazy golf
Putting green
Playground for younger children

Add to that all the things we have arranged for you:

Five-a-side football
Tug of War
It?s a knockout competition
Easing competition
Karaoke
Live Band
Disco
Sake Bar
Show n Shine for each manufacturer
Show n Shine for Classics
Show n Grime for 4x4s
Time Attack Kart Challenge
Launch of the Z LEJOG!

Then add the new stuff that we are still working on and this promises to take JAE to yet another level!

Booking forms will be available on line very soon and will be emailed out to you. But until then just get it in your diary, book the time off work and start organising your club stands!

PLEASE NOTE MY NEW EMAIL ADDRESS: [email protected]

See you at JAE!!!!

Did everyone enjoy the show and all the booze etc supplied by Richardk out of member fees last weekend?

Club stands at car shows in a proper Marquee
Track days
Professional entertainment at shows (Pro DJ, sound systems, lighting, lasers, etc.)
Provide a nominal amount of drinks at events for members
Develop a proper website, rather than just a forum
Arrange local & national club meets
Arrange discounts on products, insurance etc. for club members
Join forces with other Jap car clubs
Offer members club branded t-shirts, hoodies, fleeces, etc. at subsidised rates
Run the forum carefully. With the help of the moderators on the forum side and my office staff on the membership side.

Again, many thanks to you guys who have become members and hopefully we'll see lots more join soon!
