Whiteout

Post by Matt »

It was nice to to see everyone this weekend, old friends Rainville, Kenny, & Nick, and new friends Mike, who bought my JDX8, Adam, who sold me a track, and hardcore JD sledders Joe & Tom who had 4 mid-mount JDs in the show yesterday, and two of them on the vintage ride today. The vintage ride went well, for almost having been canceled. The only failure was the trail leader's Cat, which just blew a belt.

Tickets sales could have been better. I think the distance of the raffle was scaring people.

That was a problem for alot of people at waconia also. I could see it being a problem when you start to get over 12 hours driving, or more for you easterners.

Matt,

Great to see you at the Whiteout. Thanks for all your help with ticket sales. To try to entice folks to buy, I offered to haul the sled back to NY from Waconia for half price. Sales were below my expectations, but we were not in the best of spots either. Funny, but I've sold 4 more since the show, so Cari will have a bunch of tickets to fill out for other guys when we get there. (So maybe giving Matt all my tickets wasn't such a great idea)

Hopefully we can move some at the HOF before the drawing...
