This is just a thought I had. I think that it would be cool if we had a DSM/Import
swap meet and cook out. I'm sure that many of us have a lot of stuff we don't need that other people might. And a swap meet would be a good way to buy, sell and trade things. I have always had more success selling thing at the snowmobile swap meets i've gone to so I think it would be a good way for many of us to get rid of stuff that we aren't willing to throw away but don't need.

It could also just be another time to hang out, bullshit, and checkout cars.

Different shops and Venders could have a stand and represent themselves.

Just wondering if people would be interested in this type of thing? Maybe someone has some good ideas for this type of event also.

Sounds somewhat similar to the annual Mitsu Cookout, but I'd deffinately be up for something like this early in the summer. May/June?

I brought this up to Honda guys a couple of years ago and they liked it as well. It's good to do it early in the season (at least when it's warm out) so people can get rid of old stuff taking up space and buy the stuff they need for the season. I'm all for it. It's a shame we couldn't rent a small place, like a small armory or something, so we had space to spread everything out.

Or if someone had a large garage or something. If we had the house that we've been looking at, we could have it there. But I doubt that will happen.

I talked to alan and it sounds like we'll try to get something set up for early this season.

I say all we need is a nice day and a field. Everyone shows up, sets up shop and we git er dun.

Actually, this sounds like a really good idea to me. Sell some parts, eat some food, meet some people, and of course drink some beers. I would be in.

If it's in a field, it better be someones private field and not a park. They frown upon drinking in public parks. If someone has a field or a large driveway area or something else that they would let us use, then it would be perfect.

This week im going to talk to some people and see what I can find.

Im going to talk to my work and also the people at medina ballroom.
In the summer they have a swap meet type thing already. Maybe on the same day as one of theres we can use the top parking lot. This way we would have even moor people checking stuff out and we could shop the other areas if we wanted.

Please let me know how you feel about the Medina Idea.

Owatonna has a small armory if everyone wants to drive an hour south of the cities.
