Hilux4x4.co.za - National GTG

HennieJ2 · Post by **HennieJ2** » Tue Sep 08, 2009 7:30 am

Guys from the 4x4Comm are having their 1st GTG at the end of Septemebr and I am sure some of our members will be there too. Let's see how it all pans out and then maybe we can try again. I think their's are at Colesberg or in that area - hence being the most central GTG area which suits most.

Further to some suggestions made by OOOOMS, HennieJ2 and Hentey, the purpose of this thread is to discuss the possibility of organising and having a national Club Get Together somewhere in the geographical center of the Republic of South Africa... let rip guys...

Thys, if we get good feedback from the above exercise, I second you to be the organiser.

They might be a much bigger group, but we are suppose to have trusty vehicles, so we should be able to make the long journey down to Colesberg

Natuurlik hoe meer sentraal hoe beter vir almal. Reken ook mens wil dit in die lente / somer tyd reel. Hoef nie noodwendig 'n trail te wees nie maar dit sal so half die "object" defeat. As mens dit 'n ordentlik wil doen sal mens probably 'n dag se verlof ook moet insit. Volgens my is min of meer enige tyd fine en is ek sal ek 'n dag of twee se verlof ook insit om daar uit te kom.

Hier is die thread op die 4X4Comm:
http://www.4x4community.co.za/forum/sho ... hlight=GTG
Daar is pryse reelings, etc Vir die wat dink dis maklik - sien hoeveel bladse se gesprekke is daar al....... ook, die feit is daar - dit kan tog gedoen word, al is hulle ook oor die hele land versprei.

Mag miskien n stupid vraag wees,maar is daar n plek in Colesberg wat n groot groep mense kan hanteer?Die ding het die potensiaal om groot te word(dink ek)Weet julle dalk iets wat ek gemis het?

Die plek waantoe die mense gaan is langs die Gariep dam naby Colesberg. Dis 'n groot kampterrein/ontspanningsoord plek.

HennieJ2 · Post by **HennieJ2** » Wed Sep 09, 2009 8:00 am

Ook het al gehoor van die bikers wat ook in Colesberg self saamtrek, maar soos Thys se, dis die kampterrein by/naby die Gariep dam - redlik sentraal vir die Pretorianers en die Slaapstadders

HennieJ2 · Post by **HennieJ2** » Wed Sep 09, 2009 8:11 am

Ek twyfel of ons enige iemand sal uitlaat - the more the merrier!!

En dan dink ek ook sommer hard-op - hoekom nie 'n ieder en elk met 'n Hilux bakkie te nooi nie? Op die ou end betaal elkeen tog vir homself en dit kan sommer 'n "marketing exercise" wees, vir almal om die club te join

HennieJ2 · Post by **HennieJ2** » Wed Sep 09, 2009 1:34 pm

Dankie Pieter, maar ek moet bietjie bieg hier - dis eintlik Mark (OOOOMS) wat met die idee vorendag gekom

het met Kaspaas Hentey en Neil kort op sy hakke

. Ek blaf net saam met die groot honne om geraas te maak

. Anyway, ek sal definitief help en inspring om te help beplan, maar soos Kapaas se, kom ons begin kyk na datums ver in die toekoms. Het enige een van jullle al die amptelike 2010 kalener met goedgekeurde vakansie dae? As julle het, plaas asb. hier, sodat ons die dae kan beplan met minium verlof - op die stadium skuld ek al die baas verlof met al my galavanting....

Quick response from the men in Toyo steel - thanks. Now, let's debate dates. I see potential in the next:
1.) 22 March -Human Rights day

- Monday (bad to go back and work on the Tuesday though)
2.) 27 April - Freedom day

- Tuesday (might throw in a day's leave)
3.) 24 September - Heritage day

(nice - especially for us construction workers on a pay week-end, so the Monday off too)

The rest I have ignored as Easter week-end wil have high traffic volumes on the N1 and also due to the religious nature of the week-end. The others are during winter (16 June & 9 August) June also sees he soccer world cup and a lot of overlander are going to the neighbouring coun(trees) during winter for their annual holiday

Floor is open for discussions!!!!

These are probably the 2 best options, as Sept is too far into the future, and a lot of water will flow under the bridge from now to then.

2.8 d/cab SFA · Post by **2.8 d/cab SFA** » Wed Sep 09, 2009 4:11 pm

March, before school holidays when families go away. Things won't be fully booked, off peak rates

ThysdJ · Post by **ThysdJ** » Wed Sep 09, 2009 5:46 pm

Agreed.. March sounds the best option to me too.

hentey · Post by **hentey** » Wed Sep 09, 2009 5:50 pm

Maart klink reg.

HennieJ2 · Post by **HennieJ2** » Wed Sep 09, 2009 6:14 pm

Allrighty then - it looks like this date is suitable for most - lets wait app. 2 more days and if no other suggestions are comming forward, we fix the date and start selecting the organising chair person (could be woman folk too) and committee? My suggestion would to have a chairman with a Northern and a Southern co-ordinating team. Any other suggestions?

Hmmm .... like the Colesburg idea. March also seems to be a good time .... not too cold yet either.

HennieJ2 · Post by **HennieJ2** » Thu Sep 10, 2009 8:56 am

While we wait to fix the date, we might as well start thinking how we want it to be:
1) Are we going big with all possible bells and whistles with sponsors and exhibitors?
2) Do we keep it small and personal with a couple of new friends and family?

The 2 options above is what dictates the amount of effort required.

ThysdJ · Post by **ThysdJ** » Thu Sep 10, 2009 1:04 pm

Hennie, ek dink vir 'n start moet ons dit eers klein hou... net vriende en familie..

hentey · Post by **hentey** » Thu Sep 10, 2009 2:48 pm

Ek dink ook n klein begin is beter..........gee die lede kans om mekaar beter te ken.Ek self het nie die ondervinding om so iets te reel nie ,maar as ek met sekere take toegedeel word sal ek dit uitvoer.Miskien moet iemand wat dit al gedoen het,net die punte op die forum sit en dan kan ons mos elkeen vir hom n taak vat en deurvoer.Die groot vraag is gaan ons elkeen vir homself cater of gaan ons n prys per kop maak en die etes gesamentlik voorberei.Hoe dink julle?

ToyX4 · Post by **ToyX4** » Thu Sep 10, 2009 3:10 pm

Ek is 100% vir so n aksie.

Enige van die eerste 2 datums is reg.

Oom Hentey, ek reken elkeen sorg vir homself. Minder potensiaal vir probleme

ThysdJ · Post by **ThysdJ** » Thu Sep 10, 2009 3:12 pm

Jip ek is met Riaan op daai ene. Ons kan saans groot vure maak en saam braai, maar elke ou sorg vir sy eie spyskaart.. Dan hoef niemand te worry oor die feit dat ek nie brusselse spruitjies eet nie...

OFF TOPIC
En elke ou braai sy eie vleis, want ek bring my lekker superlam loinchops en dan moet ek n ander ou se lieslappe eet.

Het daai een al paar keer oorgekom.Die mamma's skep die lekker klein choppies vir hulle kinders los dan die groot en taai boudchops vir die ooms

Ek dink as iemand net die bookings hanteer dan sorg elkeen vir hom self vir die res dan kan niemand mos kla na die tyd nie

ThysdJ · Post by **ThysdJ** » Thu Sep 10, 2009 3:44 pm

Nee Hentey, elke ou braai vir homself op 'n gemeenskaplike vuur het ek eintlik bedoel. ek is te bang om iemand anders se vleis te vat, nou net is daar een of ander Brusselse Spruitjies vulsel ingestop...

Gelukkig lyk dit of die manne in Slaapstad nogal aktief is en hulle speeltyd tussen die duine geniet.
Ek is skoon jaloers - Ek vlieg more Kaapstad toe vir 'n troue, en daar is nie genoeg spasie in my bagasie vir Caleb nie,
so hy sal by die huis moet bly.

Mark, especially if it appeared that the venue that the 4x4comm used is quite a popular venue. We might have to book way in advance.
