Dear All
As both an AROC Scottish Section member and regular contributor to AlfaOwner, I feel I must step forward as many people, both on this forum and on others, seem to be coming up with their own ideas for exhibits etc on the day.
We have had issues in the past with regards to other parties doing this and, although we applaud everyones enthusiasm and contribution of ideas, we must ask everyone to run ideas past the organisers in the first instance. If not, then we have people from all sorts of forums inviting people to the show and promising areas in which to exhibit and demonstrate their wares/services without the knowledge of the organisers. As you can no doubt imagine, it is then that the whole thing becomes a bit of a shambles.
I am glad to act as a point of contact for these ideas and I will gladly make contact with those people who are recommended to us. If you have anyone in mind who might want to attend, then please PM me their contact details and I'll gladly speak to them.
Forgive my forthright approach, but as I said earlier, we have had issues such as this in the past where companies and clubs have turned up demanding areas in which to exhibit without us having prior knowledge.
Thanks guys - hope you understand our situation.
