Could us a little help here

 

We are considering hosting a motorcycle rally in Alberta and I am
scheming about a variety of promotional ideas. One would involve
participants posting pictures to an online picture hosting site.  

I haven't used these online sites before. Is there one that would
allow participants to post to the same site or folder or group or
however they have them set up?  The promo would extend for a full year
and I would like to have pictures posted over the course of the
promotion.

Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated.

 


Hope you have better luck than our HOG group os having with the
Prairie Regional Rally.

This one isn't a HOG gig, but they all take a lot of work and a lot of
help.

I just took a look at your site to see when your Rally is scheduled
thinking I might ride out, but we have a gig going on at the same
time:

I would have thought you'd have a ton of experience and assistance
within your Chapter for holding a rally. You seem to have a full
schedule and a reasonable registration fee. Are the registration
numbers not what you expected?

We will be building on a campout we do every year.  Having some
experience with a smaller event will help us with something bigger.
We have a terrific group of talented volunteers to help pull it off,
which is half the battle.

Our plan is to combine a campground and the host hotel as ride
centrals.  I like having a campground in  the mix. To my mind there is
nowhere better for a bunch of bikers to meet than around a campfire,
enjoying a cold beer and a smoky or two off the grill.  It's a pretty
simple recipe but it always seems to work.

Good luck with your event. If the timing was better I'd ride out and
buy you a drink.  It's been a while.

 



Numbers are down considerably from what they needed. The dinner has
been thrown open to anyone who wants to go.

Yup, sure has.
I'm not a chapter member although I am a National member.
I'm not that much of a joiner and they are a leeetle too organized for
me.
They have a lot of people involved but I think some have pissed off
others etc.
Typical organizational stuff.
I'll be working during the event anyway but I might go to the dinner.

We've always found the last minute registrations are strong. Seems
some bikers wait to see what the weather is like before they will
commit. Go figure.

I did the budget for our gig and we can break even at 150
participants.  We'll easily get 150. 250 to 300 is probably where we
will end up, if the weather is good.

Good luck.
