Delorean Car Show Inc. 2014 Dayton, OHIO

[Jonathan]

Is there someone in the Dayton area that might want to organize a fundraiser car wash for this? I have seen high school sports teams do it to raise money as well as other clubs or groups going on trips somewhere or needing cash for equipment.

I would imagine there is a hose around back of the hotel somewhere or in a neighboring building or business. I know we are all really cautious of scratches and abuse to our cars, so maybe there is a self-serve option too?

Might be too late to get it organized, but at $10 a car or something like that, you could put a decent amount of money together in a short amount of time for a worthy cause. I can think of a few good causes right within our own car community that could benefit.

I know Ken K. is extremely busy right now, so I thought I would post this "room" reminder in the DCS 2014 thread.

If you need to cancel a room reservation, please contact Ken K. first, either by email or by his cell number (preferred).
Ken still has a few outstanding room requests and if you do not let Ken know when you cancel a room resrevation, the
room will go back into the "general room pool" and not the "DCS room pool" (for Ken to be able to re-allocate, if needed).

Even if you cancel a room reservation and you tell the Marriott folks to release the room back to DCS, it does not always
happen correctly, so it's best to contact Ken K. BEFORE you cancel a room reservation, so he can "watch for availability".
So, if you have decided to share a room and you now have a room reservation freed up, please contact Ken K. first.

Thanks

I saw on the dcs website *Celebrity signatures extra Does anyone know how much they will be? I don't want to bug Ken by asking as I am sure he is busy enough.

thanks

IIRC, the extra cost may only apply to the folks without name-tags (the folks who only come for the car show on Saturday).

I believe this was the original intention, but as the weeks and months go by, there may have been some additional changes.

I am sure Ken K. will clear up any confusion during announcements Thursday night and someone can post the details here.

I'm working on something locally for car washes, with excellent references. Hang on !

I'm tentatively joining another room, so I'll likely be cancelling my reservation (double, non-smoking.)

I'm first posting here in case someone needs to share a room and hasn't found a roomate, or needs a room of their own and wasn't able to get a reservation.

PM me if interested in either of the above.

As requested, I'll let Ken K. know in advance before I cancel.

Would someone consider reposting the text of these messages on the forum here for those of us not on Twitter?

I have a Smartphone that can receive texts or get online, but the cellular piece will get turned off upon crossing the border. Out of Country rates for data aren't exactly attractive for Canadian plans. I can use WiFi at places I stop, but won't do any data roaming on the way. Thanks in advance if someone could do this.

EDIT: I don't really have any idea what the format is for getting to the dinners or events or agenda I need to adhere to, so any help would be great. I assume I'll just figure it out when I get there, but wouldn't want to miss something for not knowing I needed to be there/hear a set of announcements. Cheers.
