I'd love your input on how to make this work, so don't hold back.

I would like to build a few static pages (non-thread) that describe each event and have pictures. On those pages I would like to link to the different threads relating to that event.

I can easily pull the images out of the threads, so don't save each one.

We have two paths to go down right now.
1. Copy and paste the address of each thread pertaining to events.
2. Compile a chronological list of events.

#2 will need the help of the general populace. I would like to see us go back as far as we can. And maybe I'm being too ambitious, but it would be cool to include the other 'minor' events/drives that we have pictures for. But before we can fill out the details of all those events, we need to know what we're looking for.

Thanks so much! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smiley_notworthy.gif)

Is this for any 914 specific events, or just site Rambles? I've got some pics from some of the first few Midwest Renegade Festivals.

My pics from East Coast Cookout (ECC) 2008
http://www.flickr.com/photos/vacca_rabite/...57607559098366/
Synopsys: Torrents of rain, beer. Smaller turnout then usual. Many people do not remember parts of the event due to the increased beer:people ratio. Too wet, drunken for a drive - which is a shame as the roads were twisty and the trees were starting to change. Several people camped on site or got a local hotel.

ECC 2007
http://www.flickr.com/photos/vacca_rabite/...57602036305263/
Could not ask for a nicer day. Not too hot, not cold, not rainy, but not too sunny either. Great food, a nice drive. Big turnout.

ECC 2006
http://www.flickr.com/photos/vacca_rabite/...57594287955829/
My first ECC. Drizzley weather, but as it cleared int he afternoon more people started to show up. This was where I started to meet some ove the local members.

Hershey Swap Meet, 2006
http://www.flickr.com/photos/vacca_rabite/...57600151947841/
Leo grabbed a few spots and we converged there for an impromptu meet. Money was spent, wives and girfriends were chilled in the cold, good food was eaten, and DrEvil decided that he wanted a camper bus (Tranny Wagen).
