now that I have your attention. No. Homecoming isn't canceled.
We've reached the final stretch to the event.
We thought we had so much time. I can't believe this all started over 5 months ago. Finishing touches were part of our meeting last night. I was not able to attend, so Steve MacKay will have to fill in the details.
I do know that we still need people that want to do the track day to sign up by May 15th. My understanding is if we don't meet the 100 people by then, it will be opened to the general public. I hope it doesn't come to that, but I see the need.
Ride maps will, hopefully, be posted to our site soon.
For those not wanting to ride at nor attend the track day, we will have alternate plans in place.
Tee shirt sales are not going as well as we hoped. The Sign Shop has invested their own time for design and layout of the shirts. They also have other plan s for Homecoming at no cost to us (the committee).
If you're planning on purchasing a shirt, I wouldn't wait till the last minute. It's coming up on their busy season. Remember you can have them shipped or pick them up at Homecoming.
There are still some concert tickets left as well. Erik and The Thunderbolts are on the verge of hitting the big time! Don't miss it!!
Boy, the ideas we had. We tried hard to secure a 2010 1125R for a raffle. However, Wisconsin's Raffle Laws just made it more difficult than we though, so we had to abandon the idea.
We have our fingers crossed hoping for good weather and that everyone has a great time.

See ya in June!!

If it is still possible to pull this off, send me the law and I can have a lawyer look at the law and find a work around or loop hole!

Just google Wisconsin Raffle Laws. Pretty iron fisted if you ask me.

Hate to say it Tony but there is really no way that we could do it. We really needed to have are ducks in a row to do such a raffle legal.

send me the pm. Tony to be honest we looked at every option with the time restraints we have and keeping it legal. It can't be done and quite frankly sadly won't be done.
