CK5 - The Full-Size GM Off Road Community

Just wondering if there is any other Sponsors for the bash. We spend a lot of cash on our trucks with a lot of different companies out there and was thinking of how much more we would spend with them if they helped Sponsor the Blazer Bash. Just seems like it would be some good cheap advertisment for them. A little donation for a raffle etc. would be nice. I'd talk to some of them if I thought that is what we wanted. It would also be nice if the main page of the bash was a printable advertisment for the bash we could hand out to some possible Sponsors or other guys with nice blazers that don't know about us. I would have my company donate but it is hard to justify a plumbing & heating Co. donating to a truck event. The rock crawl in Kremling is Sponsored by Amsoil, Stage west, Bestop, Bose, Cliffside Inn, Rockcrawler.com, B.F. Goodrich, and more. Why not a few for us?? or do we just want it low key/fun event? anyway, just my $.02

purdy good point there... we need some manufacturers to come in and do some drawings to give away parts or something. /forums/images/icons/tongue.gif

On a simliar note.....has anyone invited Peterson's 4-Wheel or Four Wheeler to join us? It seems like those guys are always looking for an excuse to get out of the office anyway..... /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif

i think a while back StevO did mention that FourWheeler was gonna be there snappin pics....

Yeah, I have been slacking on this as I am under staffed, BUT, I just did get off the phone with Specialty Top Co and they are interested in giving away a new soft top for the rafftle. /forums/images/icons/grin.gif

We hope to have Kennedy from Four Wheel & Off Road magazine there.

Cool thanks StevO

well how about skyjacker or high angle driveline? or lyons design, they could sell TONS of stickers there.

Good call! /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif
I could use some more stickers...er...a...I mean horsepower! /forums/images/icons/wink.gif /forums/images/icons/smirk.gif
Let me know if I can help Steve, I know you are always doing your best. What about 4WPW? and offroad.com / Shawn?
Or maybe some local Moab biz want some of our bussiness?

I am pretty good friend with someone at 4wheelparts, If need I could talk with him in regards to this. If someone would be able to let me know what they might need, if it is just for the raffle or if they wanted them there as a vendor or both.

I could use all the help I can get, if you guys know of some potential sponsors, you might want to point them to blazerbash.com and see if they want to sponsor something for the rafftle.

Hope this works, sent a bunch out already....
I'm sending you this e-mail because with the products you sell, I thought this might be of interest to you.
I 'm a member of coloradok5.com (http://www.coloradok5.com )
We have over 5,000 members not only in the US but all around the world.
Most of our members are constantly fixing up there trucks and spending money on them.
I hope some of them are spending money with you also.
Next month, we are having our 1st annual Blazer Bash in Moab Utah and are looking for possible sponsors or maybe
just a small donation to our raffle that might help get your name out and show our members what you have.
I think this could be of benefit to you and also to us. I'm not asking for anything big but if I don't ask, we can't help each other. Please take the time to check our event out at blazerbash.com (http://blazerbash.com)
and let me or Steve Fox at coloradok5.com (http://www.coloradok5.com ) know if you are interested.
Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope we can do some business together.
Sincerely, Dave Godzak

Update:
So far I have a few companies that are willing to send us out stuff for goodie bags and a raffle. I'm waiting for more responses but I need more company names and links to ask them. Please list any links you have here and I will send them out. e-mail addresses would be best so I don't have to visit every site for them.
Here is a few that might help us >
ACC mats (http://www.accmats.com/)
Kevins Performance (http://www.kevinsperformance.com)
Actron Techometers and Gauges (http://www.actron.com/)
and possibly Coverlay Manufacturing (http://www.coverlaymfg.com/)
but I need more! /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif
Ravin, check with your friend! 4WPW parts would be great!
Thanks, Dave

This is great, it will make the event a lot more fun. Thanks for working on it.

Dam! "I suck!" /forums/images/icons/frown.gif
How did I get this job anyway? Oh well, I'm trying when I can. I just sent Dan a PM to see if he has a list.
It's been tough to get any time to do this. One of my guys that work for me is on vacation and the other one had to fly back east because his dad had a heart attack so I have been pulling some major hours and working all weekend long & late into the night. /forums/images/icons/tongue.gif
I'll keep trying when I can. I would like to see the guys that drive out so far for this go home with something. As for me, I could care less, I'm just in it for the wheeling, meeting everyone and maybe a couple evening parties /forums/images/icons/grin.gif .
Oh!, and trying to help Steve.

You'd be the only one that thinks that...I think you're doing an admirable job and it was cool to see someone step up and volunteer. /forums/images/icons/cool.gif I'm sure Steve appreciates all your efforts so far and I'm sure the people you've contacted will come through in time to make this event even better.

I wish I could be there this year... /forums/images/icons/frown.gif /forums/images/icons/frown.gif

David

DUDE!! You ROCK!
Thanks!
Oh man only 7weeks away!! Are you all READY?? I know I ain't YET, but I will be!!!
YYYEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAA!!

Just wanted to send out a HUGE "thanks!" to Dave/STrooper. Who knows which businesses will respond, but without someone making the effort, our raffle/event would be much less cool. Like heavymetal with the arranging of the group camp site... you've gone above/beyond and I'm sure BB will be that much more kick a$$ an event for it! Anyway, thanks again man!!! /forums/images/icons/laugh.gif

Thank's Dave, a few have already come in, the help is MUCH appreciated.

Sorry I don't have any more for you. The only reason I had that one is cause I won the 4 free shocks at Blazer Fest last year.
