This is something that we have talked about doing for years, a proper annual national UK based ElgrandOC event.
The cogs are turning and we're going to try and gear up to bring you something in 2023. With that target in mind, we need some questions answering so we've developed the below survey that we would like you to complete.
TO TAKE THE SURVEY AND HELP US ANALYSE IT, PLEASE COPY ALL OF THE BELOW TEXT INTO A REPLY AND DELETE OUT THE OPTIONS ACCORDINGLY, LEAVING ONLY YOUR ANSWERS. DO NOT EDIT OR CHANGE THE FORMAT OF THE TEXT OTHER THAN DELETING AS APPROPRIATE. DO NOT ADD EXTRA LINES OR SPACES. LEAVE ANY AND ALL COMMENTS TO THE LAST QUESTION.
This is going to be a very manual task to analyse the data, so please help us to collate the data by following my example in the first comment below.
INFO REGARDING THE EVENT:
We are aiming to plan a 4 day event, Thursday to Sunday. At this event, members will be able to come and go at any point whether you only want to stay for 1 night, or 3 nights. You will be able to come and go as you please during the day, it will not be a car show (for now at least).
Basic facilities will be provided in terms of toilets and showers etc. Whether that be via the location we choose, or we will look to provide them for the event.
Initially this is to be an ElgrandOC only event, but we may open it up to friends of the club. Ultimately, this could develop into something greater, so this is your chance to be part of the foundation of something bigger.
Insurance, licences etc will all be researched and present at the event.
The club is NOT looking to make money from this event. This will be a break-even deal to make it as fair as possible to all those who attend.
INFO REGARDING THE LOCATION
I've had to send a number of messages out to people who have asked for the event to be planned closer to them. This will NOT happen. All four locations have been picked as they are the most central to all members. What we are aiming to achieve from this is the North/South bias of the central location. We will not move the event to Devon (for example) as that will make it unfair on anyone travelling from the North. We will not move the event to the lake District as this will make it unfair on those travelling from the south. Please do NOT request for the event to be placed more local to you for convenience. It comes across as selfish and that's not what this club is about.
If you want and event planning in your local area, please feel free to speak to regional members in the appropriate chat section and organise something yourself. Everyone is encouraged to organise events if they would like them. We as an admin team cannot organise events in every region to suit members unwilling to travel. All locations for this event are 200+ miles for myself, so it's not like I've chosen them on my own doorstep for convenience. Thank you.
INFO REGARDING THIS THREAD
Please do not enter into discussion in this thread. This has purely been designed as a way to get feedback to the questions below. Any conversation posts or replies that do not meet the required format will just be deleted.
It will remain open until we've had enough replies to get a good baseline understanding of your collective requirements.
The results of this survey will be used to determine whether or not it is worth investing our time in such an event, where the event should be held etc. Your feedback is important and will help us to develop a tailored event to suit as many as possible. But please bear in mind that the options you choose will only influence the decisions made, and they may not necessarily conform to your answers.
with respect to Question 3 - if you aren't bothered how much the event costs, choose "over £50". That doesn't mean we'll target that, it just means we know that you don't mind paying whatever it costs for us to throw a great event. But we will do our best to keep all costs down as much as possible. The more people who attend the cheaper it will get effectively.
Lastly, your participation in this survey is appreciated.
