If you need some of any of those things done with DDK logos, I can get them produced down yer, but you may want to have em done up thar if you have others contributing (Kwolitee Kontrole, etc.)
Happy to muck in as you see fit. like if someone wants to do so many stickers and I do Balloons, coo-ell. Whatever.

DDK Balloons would be great. if you could sort this that would be great. Bootsy really needs to approve the design but i would have thought

would be good ???

Nick your help both financial and otherwise is more than welcome and i fear its us taking advantage of you rather than the other way around.

if you would get togeather with Ferryman and help cover the costs of the promotional displays and leaflets, (you could add your company logo as sponcers) that would be great.
also maybe do some freebie badges or keyrings or something ??

Helen, meant to say if the NEC require you to do any sort of floor plan just say and I will sort that as well.

I have some of those ramps you get from Halford if this makes putting the cars on more interesting ( at an angle ) rather than parking them up flat..just an idea.. I have two sets..

I also have a roll of plain black fabric in the workshop I am sure I can lose. make a quick frame work out of basic wood stretch the fabric on and staple in place..

Also have a sign cutter to make up any signs.. like " HELEN's Chair "

if no one else will offer a 912 then I am sure I can send one up 65 or the 69. offers out to other 12 owners.

are we going to have to nick more Porsche tape from Classic Le Mans this year to put round the cars!!

Helen, I'll cover the cost of the stands and leaflets as my contribution.
If any reputable trader offers to sponsor the stand then you can use that money for other expenses (like giveaways?).

How about DDK branded car air fresheners?
Or sweeties? Or sticks of rock with the logo through it?
Button badges?
Or postcards?
Or posters?

I'm happy to print 1,000 posters and you could give them away for donations to the charity.
We must have some good photos between us. We could picture a selection of cars.

Or what about a raffle? Maybe a track day or similar as a prize. Then the monies raised go to MacMillan.

Just an idea and I have no idea of cost only as we were speaking about some of the great pictures members have taken over the years. what if we could print some A3 poster of some of the cars and sell them for charity to people with the ddk logo on the bottom. Like the mags give away when you take up the 12month offer.. you can choice a poster.. excpet we can fleece the public for some money and show what a great club we are for raising so much for chairty!! and put a total of how much we have all raised in the short period of time..cos it's been alot thanks to the likes of Phil

fantastic.
Mugs, Beer mats, T-Shirts, Pens, Notelets, sew on badges. (you name it)

i'd be happy to run DDK goodie shop with all money going to charity. i could have a board showing a running total of money raised.
