stevasaurus 22,741 #1 Posted June 18, 2012 No one has said anything about the group picture yet. I propose we do it around 11:00/12:00 on Saturday right across from the food building where we have done it in past years. Could do one at the same time on Friday also. :) :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have a safe trip and see you in Aug. ~Duke Duke, We have a new banner, so Steve won't need to stop by for yours. But on the other hand, maybe a couple of jars of Apple Juice for the campfire... Yeah Steve, maybe you should stop by. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rmaynard 15,461 #11 Posted June 20, 2012 Speaking of group pictures, for the last two years, I have taken the responsibility of being in charge of the group picture. I gather the various photos that are taken, edit, match faces with names, and produce a final Friday & Saturday group picture. This year, I have a lot things going on, and don't have the time to devote to the editing, name gathering, etc. Do we have any volunteers who would like to take on this task this year?

Sparky-(Admin) 21,318 #18 Posted June 25, 2012 I think the parade was the issue Mike. It was huge on Friday and went into double overtime! Mike........... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fun Engineer 859 #19 Posted June 25, 2012 I never heard the announcement on Saturday. At least I made the photo Friday. Glad to have met such a great bunch of guys and their wives. 1012 miles. 19 hours of driving. $80 in toll fees.

rmaynard 15,461 #20 Posted June 25, 2012 Since there is no one person designated as the RedSquare official at the show, the picture just sort of happens when it happens. The WHCC runs the schedule of events, and the announcement via the public address systems is done as a courtesy for us. This is only my third show, and the job of "group picture coordinator" has seemed to fallen on my shoulders since the pictures are taken in front of my and buckrancher's red canopies (thought by some to be the official RedSquare area). There is NO official RedSquare area, but we don't mind that our canopies are used for that purpose. There were several RS members that expressed a concern that some other members had not gotten to the show yet at 11:00 am when the we wanted to schedule the shot. So I asked Bill Pearson to announce that the picture would be taken immediately after the parade. Little did we know that the parade would last as long as it did. On Saturday, only one announcement was made, and unfortunately many missed it. I have some thoughts on next years show, and I will post a thread later to see what the general feeling is of the RedSquare members that actually attend or plan to attend the show. So, if there are any complaints about this years group picture, you can address them to me... Here is Friday's picture. I am still waiting for the other pictures that were taken both Friday and Saturday to get the best one to use for the final picture with names. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
squonk 41,118 #21 Posted June 25, 2012 I guess I can understand the time change. One of the guys with me has his anniversary on the 23rd so we have to get back early. I was lucky they were able to come on Thursday so I could spend more time there. Maybe I can convince the wife to come next year so I can stay longer. I really want to be there for cruise night.

varosd 1,185 #22 Posted June 25, 2012 No worries Bob! It does seem that RS folks congergrate around your tents! Sat was busy with the parade starting late/ raffle going on /folks packing up and leaving/ a lot of T-shirt announcement/ tractors flipping over on the balance thingy! It all works out in the end Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coadster32 793 #24 Posted June 25, 2012 Dam!! The group keep getting bigger and bigger. Nice to see. (Hard to remember everyone's names when seen only once a year though.) Looks like I missed out this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fun Engineer 859 #25 Posted June 25, 2012 Hey Bob. It's not your fault. You and the rest of the group do a great job. I didn't realize there were so many people in the picture when we took it. I'm going to PM you. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
