Wow, what a weekend for the LX community!!!
We want to thank each and every one of you for coming to
Columbus, Ohio and making the
1ST ANNUAL LX & BEYOND NATIONALS event a success. It was a pleasure to finally get to put so many forum names and cars with the faces of the people behind them. This event was all about the people and Chuck and I want to thank all of YOU for taking a chance, coming out to Columbus and believing in us. Mother nature put some obstacles in our way but the determination and heart of the LX community prevailed. We sincerely hope that everyone has added some good memories and built upon some friendships that will last for many years to come. Thank you for letting us be apart of that.
Please join me in thanking all of the
MANY Forums owners and administrators for allowing us to post the event and help us to bring together so many LX owners and enthusiasts from across the country. There are far too many to list, but if you are reading this post then this is one of the many that helped spread the word to all of you. Thank you!!!
Absolutely, without a doubt we would like to thank all of the sponsors for helping the idea of the
LX & BEYOND NATIONALS become a reality. Some of them were able to attend in person and some where not, but
let us make it known that without them this event would not have been possible. Hopefully, everyone was able to pickup some goodies and meet the vendors in-person that were there and thank them for their support of the event and LX community. If not, please send them a PM, e-mail or letter and thank them for their support.
They deserve it and should be recognized for their support. Thank you!!!
Next, we want to thank the
CASUAL CRUISERS CAR CLUB that helped to keep everything running smoothly and were our eyes and ears throughout the day. These ladies and gentlemen helped out more than most of you will ever know and were invaluable to making the daily activities go as well as they did. Hats off to Gail (President), Dave (VP), and the rest of the group. It was our privilege and pleasure working with all of you. Thank you!!!
Last, but not least we would like to thank all the forum members and volunteers that stepped up to help out as well: Jim (
4DOORZ06), Beth (
Mrs. "CHERRY"), Sam (
OMSRT8), Alice (
Challenger Lover), Tim (
GoofyTimL), Hank (
B&G Banana), Ron (
Rodie), Golden (
Grey1), Chris (
ChargerChick), Duncan (
TTMR), Chris (
KRYPTONITE), Nick (
wickedchargerrt), Dana (
DanaM) and many others. My head is still spinning from the weekend, so if I forgot to mention anyone please don't be mad at me, its not intentional.
Don't forget that there will be a DVD of the entire weekend Friday thru Sunday, that also includes the behind-the-scenes footage of the Makeover. (Details to follow) Thanks to those of you that stepped up and supported the camera crew with the additional footage that was missed on Friday and throughout the weekend. The event was so big that it proved to be a challenge even for a 4-man camera crew to cover!!!
We will be taking a few weeks to relax, evaluate the weekend and gather some thoughts. Anybody that has any suggestions, or critiques (good or bad) please let us know via PM or e-mail.
Congrats again to Brad (
4DEATER) and Nick (
wickedchargerrt)!!!
Take care and look forward to seeing all of you for the
2ND ANNUAL LX & BEYOND NATIONALS.
Sincerely,
Anthony Carter & Chuck Green
