Subject: Syncro de Mayo Fiesta at Hollister 2002: Event Update
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
We still need to fill some committee chairs for the
2002 Syncro de Mayo Fiesta at Hollister. Or should we
call it SyncroFest 2002? HA! We need a naming
committee.
Anyway, the following Chairs have been filled:
Event Set Up & Coordination Committee: Steve Schwenk
German Beer, Sausage & Bier Garden Committee: Peter
Buettner
Menu Planning and Food Acquisition Committee: Brent
Christensen
Kitchen Equip. Acquisition & Set up Committee: Mark
Drillock (tentative)
John Wessels
(Co-Chair)
Swap Meet Organization Committee: Tom Neal
Local Premium Winery Tour Committee: Candy Neal
(tentative)
Kids' Pool, Slippery Slide & Sprinkler Committee: Seth
Kids' Entertainment Committee: Steve Schwenk (Co-Chair
needed)
These Chairpersons may need to call upon you for
equipment or assistance in order to fulfill their
important duties. Please support and help them by
volunteering what you can when they call.
We still need Chairpersons for the following
Committees:
Multimedia: Digital and analogue VCR projector equip
and set up for showing video on the camp stage screen.
Recorders and camera persons needed for filming
footage. Syncro videos also welcome. A PA system would
be fun, and music. I nominate Coyote, if he is willing
and able. This committee needs one or two Co-Chair,
too.
Event Logo & Nick Nack Committee: We need a logo, tee
shirts, maybe some signs and/or a banner and maybe
stickers, or even beer mugs. We would be honored if
someone with appropriate skills would step forward for
this important Chairmanship.
Fri. Night Dinner in San Juan Batista Committee: The
Friday night dinner was great last year. This was easy
to set up on the phone, the restaurant was very
accommodating and the food was great. We had our own
room and a huge table. Light lifting here.
Search & Rescue Committee: These Committee members
need to pre-tour the trials, note obstacles and rate
the trails so people are more willing to venture out on
the trails without fear, or in order to better
experience fear.
This committee requires people with exceptional driving
skills and an off-road worthy syncro as you may be
called upon to assist others and traverse black diamond
terrain. It might also be helpful to have a person who
scares easy to ride along so the screams can be
factored into the rating system. I nominate Tom, Adam
and John Wessels, if willing and able to serve.
Tequila & Fine Spirits Committee: The title speaks for
itself. This will not be a drunken event, but it is
nice to sample some fine spirits before the pot luck or
around the fire. I nominate Pensioner.
Hospitality Committee: Do what's necessary to get
Derek, Tim, Michael, Tom or any of the East Coasters or
Canadians or other non-california syncronauts out for
the event. last year, we even had westys lined up for
them to camp in, airport pick-up, accommodations, etc.
None came! Maybe you can do better. We did have
several people from Seattle, and from Oregon and
Nevada, though.
That should about do it. It is looking like the event
will be held either May 16-19, or May 23-26 (Memorial
Day weekend). I need to see if Memorial Day is even
available. If you want to vote for either of these,
please do. P-mail is fine.
