Confusing contest instructions
I'm sorry.. but I've read this a hundred times and I still can't figure out what it means.
Are we suppose to find an EXISTING post and reply? or begin a NEW post in the appropriate regional section (like this one)? And are we suppose to add a photo?
HOLD IT... I think I found the answer.....
Okay, so we need to PROMPT the right person (somehow).... and THEN add a reply to their posting.... hummmm....
Follow the on screen instructions and post a response to an authorized CORVETTEFORUM.COM Sweepstakes forum post and you will be automatically entered in the drawing. The entry must include a suggestion on a regional thread in the events/discussion section.
HOLD IT... I think I found the answer.....
If you don’t see a thread for your area, look at the sticky thread showing the list of regional events coordinators. There is one posted in each regional section. Contact that person and ask them to go ahead and post a contest thread

Now I see the REAL PROBLEM.
There is NO REGIONAL REP for the Pacific Northwest!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No one on the list from WA, OR, ID, AK or HI.
Take a look.

Looks like we need a volunteer to serve as a regional events coordinator in the Pacific Northwest. I hope one or all of you in this thread will volunteer your services.
If you will agree to volunteer as a regional events coordinator for your area, I'll add you to the list. Then, you can post a Fikse wheels giveaway thread for your area, so you and others in the Pacific Northwest can post suggestions for activities in the thread and become eligible for the giveaway on the set of wheels.
The primary duty for RCs is just to make sure there is a thread in your regional section that lists activities and events available for people in the area.
If you have the time to go beyond that, you can plan and organize some events -- maybe just inviting people to rendezvous at a restaurant or park for a meet and greet some Saturday or Sunday afternoon.
If you have the time and inclination, you can coordinate with other RCs in your region to set up a larger scale regional event.
Let me know.

Well, I suppose I could help...I've been co-admin for forums and have ran my own in the past. (mostly Gaming related) But know I am new to the PNW (moved here mid June for new Boeing position-my 26th year with them, SoCal) and just moved into our new home over the past 2 days in Sammamish, WA. So don't expect me to be organizing things much!

Haha.
I don't mind helping out. I've been in Washington for...my entire life. Sheesh.
Just bought my first Vette a few weeks ago.
By the way, a great place for a meet and greet is the XXX in Issaquah.

And... I'd be happy to step down and free-up a WA slot and give it to an OR person!!!
By the way... thanks for the comment about SIS. It is hosted one exit from my house. I was at the Factoria show-and-shine.
Don't hesitate to post events about Oregon. I drove my '66 to the Oregon Gardens last summer. Spent five days there. Hope to visit "somewhere" in Ore-re-gone again sometime next summer.
