I'll provide the H20, hose,towels,soap, refreshments, etc...

Thanks for the invitation Jim and I'll probably take you up on this offer again this year. I enjoyed seeing you guys at the Dragon this year hope to see you there in the fall.

Hey, Gary, unless there is a change, I will NOT be attending Woodward this year, I am trying to get away for the Texas trip. I can't do both, and may not be able to do either. Harvest is going to be delayed because of all this rain, so I may be working....thanks, and if something happens at the last minute, I will let you know.

Well it seems the first decal design didn't go over well. Just messing around, I came up with an oval decal, 5" x 3". Here is a rough draft of it. Probably a buck more to produce. Let me know if you are interested. Of course both body styles would be available if you all want to go with this.

This is what I came up with for the patch image. Can be made into a tee shirt as well.
Without the rather dark "watermarks" Feed back please...............

I think the design is fine and of coarse I would get a roadster patch. I think its nice to have a patch for every year we attend with a different design, shape and colors. I wish we could get a patch for the year 2007 the first year we started attending Woodward as a group. Any chance of that Ann? Thanks, Pat

Pat- the cost of making up a patch for 2007 would mean enough people would commit to buying one. I'm not opposed to following through on it the members would have to let me know.

James give a shout out about Roy's question, I'd go for a static cling type too. I can check into it on my end, but you've been doing the sticker type things, you can be our "King of stickers that Cling"
-yes took a while to work that wording out

Ann
Looks good ,
Suggestion:
Relocate 15th annual above Woodward Ave and Dream Cruise under at the same angle

BTW I'll buy a 2007 if you make one

Pat keep a 2007 list-

I'm not opposed to the above change. I placed the words in order to have as much of the car images show as I could. Also, the roadster image is a stinker. As there isn't much to it, I had to be careful about which part got covered or it wasn't recognizable as a roadster. I'll tinker around with what your suggesting and post it.

Ann would it be easier and cheaper if we used the patch from last year and just changed the year and maybe the color of the border. I would think that your supplier still has the layout and setup from last year. What do you think? Thanks, Pat

Ann, the reason I suggested it was to have as much of the car show. Text would be above the car and at an angle. I know you don't have too much real estate to work with so whatever you end up with will be fine.

Gary, you can take me off the list for this year's Woodward. I'm not gonna make it - too much other stuff going on. See y'all at Carlisle & the Dragon though!

I checked with the vendor on the different type of material he had. He left a phone message that he can print them on "static cling" material. No details about price but if enough interest is there, I will proceed.

To have something made into embroidery the design has to be digitized, which puts the visual image into code that the embroidery machine can read. Different machines are in different file formats. To change the 8 to a 7 is the part that would require the re-work (a new digitized file). The color is not a big deal, just put a different color spool in when the patches are run. I'll contact the company that does the code/format work for me to see if they can make the change without creating a whole new file.

The suggested change to the design does look better, what do you think?
