Vancouver Island 2010 Poker Run NSX & S2K

A&J Racing is now onboard with sponsorship. They are donating some "swag" for the Poker Run auction. Richmond/YaleTown Auto Spa as well is throwing in some full detail coupons worth over $300.00. Island Honda Dealers have thrown in some GPS and some Blue Tooth units as well. I will be posting the items on the poker run web site as well as the rules for the run. Hope to see more of you NSX Prime members out there.

For anyone other NSX Prime people that were attending, although payment is not required until the end of May, I would appreciate it, if at all possilbe, that you pick up your tickets early. I need to pay for the food and staff still for the event. I have already paid for the facilities and other things but we need to firm up the numbers and the best way to do that is to receive payment...,

Thanks again for helping make this event a success !!!

For those of you that have pre-registered, I need to start collecting entry money. I still have a lot to pay for including food, and staff, not to mention we have to start firming up who is actually attending and who cannot.

I realize that most of you are looking at at least a ferry ride and a night stay on the island but I have done all I can to arrange for inexpensive rooms at Mt Washington. Please also remember that every meet I have attended in Vancouver, I have stayed over night and caught a ferry. :-)

Anyway I will be posting up the rules of the poker run and all of that this week. I am still attempting to nail down one more checkpoint making it 7 all together. Maps are being put together as well in the next couple of weeks.

Again please help me to make this a memorable event. Come out for the meet and poker run and cruz. I want to make this an annual event but it all depends on the this, the first one.

We have many sponsors and the prizes and gifts are listed on the Poker Run web site located at: http://vipokerrun2010.elocas.com
You can also pay online at the web site so the cost isn't so big as you get closer. That is part of the reason I started advertising this event so early was to help with payments. Only $50.00 from each ticket is going towards the Charity, the remainder is food and prizes.

Thanks again and please get your money in if at all possible. See you at the event!!!

this is a Sk2/civic cruise more than an NSX I don't see see one NSX going?
Click to expand...

Only two months away. WE need payment by the middle of June.

We have 10 NSX's pre registered..., we only have 4 civics and 53 s2000's. It started out as just S2000 and NSX but to send two kids to camp I need to raise about 5K so I extended the reach to Honda and Acura (S2000, NSX, Integra, and Civic). Mainly though it is S2000 and NSX.

Check the pre-registration and you will see the NSX's that have signed up. I color coded the cars so the NSX's are in RED.

Are you in? Of course the NSX's and the S2000's will steal the show but hey I'm bias...., Hope you can make it. Can I put you down?

Posted to S2Ki Poker Run thread today...,

You are being contacted as you expressed interest in the Vancouver Island Poker Run for Charity on July 24th weekend.

It is getting closer and for those of you that have not paid you will get more and more of these notes, sorry.

As stated in my previous notes I have to start breaking up the prize money and the prizes and auction items. I need to firm up the numbers for the dinner and for the starting times of the event. I need to get maps and starting envelopes together for every participant. Our checkpoint spnosors need to know how long they need to supply volunteers for and how long they need to maintain the checkpoint and what times to expect cars to start rollinging in, I need to purchase supplies such as cards. Basically it is time to start thinking about paying for the event so I can get a good idea of how many participants we are going to have.

I realize that it is still over 2 months away but I hope you can appreciate the planning and coordination that this takes. The price that we got for the facilities and dinner up at Mt Washington depended on attendee numbers. We took the early registration and guessed that we would have approx 100 guests in all.

Here is what I need you to do if at all possible:
1) If you're for sure not attending let me know and I will remove you from the list. Sorry to see that you can't attend but perhaps next year if the first one is a success.

2) If you're coming and just can't afford the cash right now, well we need to have the money in by latest July 1st. We can only have a handful of late participants after that date. The very latest date for payment would be July 10th. After that we will have to change the entry fee (to cover late costs) from $75.00 for driver and car to $100.00 and for driver car and passenger from $110.00 to $125.00. Also don't forget that if you pay after June there is HST to be added. If this is the case then at least fire me a PM stating that for sure your coming and the money is coming and give me a rough idea of when. I may be able to cover your costs as long as you are absolutely sure you will make it here.

3) Pay ahead of time to get it out of the way and REALLY help me out. You can pay via Cash, Snail Mail, or you can go to our online payment site (thanks to the BlackMarkers) and pay with PayPal or Credit Card. The site address is: http://vipokerrun.elocas.com

Thanks in advance and thanks for helping me make this event a success and one we can do yearly, and lastly thanks from the kids that you will be helping send to camp..., putting a smile on a childs face.

Remember also this is all about getting out for a cruz and getting together for an event other than standing in a parking lot. Lets really do our best to make it out to this event and making it the success it can be. We have loads of sponsorship and everyone has been great. Go to the web site to review the prizes donated so far.

Thanks Again

This event is one month away. I need to have the final numbers and payment for the dinner (food and staff) buy the first of July. Beyond that we can only adjust the numbers slightly. We cannot accept payment for the event at the event because some things need to be ordered and paid for in advance.

Please it is time to commit and pay for your tickets. If you can at least confirm attendance for me so you are in the count please do.

I have already invested in non-refundable deposits for the facilities..., please help me to make this a successful event for all especially the kids we help send to summer camp. This event is a GO no matter what due to the commitments I have already made. Please purchase your tickets as soon as possible.

I will be posting the schedule of events and all details soon. Check the web site for payment options and latest details.

Thanks!
Dave

It has come to my attention that participation is down because of the costs of coming over to the island. Let me say that if you are really stuck for cash you could easily make it over on the Saturday morning without issue. You could do the run and then have dinner and leave shortly after dinner. There is about 2 hours between arrival at Mt Washington and when dinner happens. This is the auction/reception time and as such you can all get rested up. The Duke Point Ferry leaves at 10:45 and the Ferry to Horseshoe Bay leaves at 9:35 and both of them are about an hour from where we will be so it is completely possible to make either one.

I am more than willing to rush things along once we get to the mountain. I could even ask that dinner be served maybe half hour early at 6:30-7:00 or even a bit earlier than that once I figure out the staggard start times.

Something to think about ...,

Dave
 
Anyone that was/is having any issues with accomodations, please contact this person:

[email protected]

She is head of reservations at the Mountain Resort and knows all about our event. Some people have told me that they have called Mt Washington to get accomodations and are being told that they know nothing about the event and that you need to book at least two days or you would have to pay a one day penalty..., This is not true.

There are many accomodations on the mountain that have nothing to do with Mt Washington itself. You may have contacted one of those. The email above puts you in touch with head of reservations for Mt Washington and they have offered us deals starting at $119.00 per night (based on the type of room), and they have waived the "two nights only" rule for us.

I am sorry for the confusion and wanted to straighten it out right away.

Dave
