Time is getting closer.
See if this helps get the mood going. We have at our disposal 8000 acres of trails, obstacles, and such.

For the most part, I will be printing nametags at the site. I pre-printed a bunch last year at work, this year I have my own printer. I'm also considering having the 3 Level Logo stickers at the entry point for purchase. A suggestion was made to have Steel Soldiers in smaller print and making the screen names more prominent. I think I'm going to do that. I'm also going to try to incorporate the new artwork into the printer but no promises. CARNAC, what is your position on using a different color headlight dot for each day? I'll bring them as well.

75 powered vehicles ( meaning we didn't count equipment or trailers) last year.
We are estimating 85-100 this year.

These are one of my contributions to the rally. I will print them for anyone in attendance. Right now the plan is to have my laptop and printer at the entry point as long as I can keep it powered.

I plan on attending for the first time, thought I might bring my M816 wrecker, if there is a need for such a truck. We are about to disassemble it for a full restoration so scratching it up now won't bother me.

The wrecker would be a great help. 73m819, Ron, wrecked his wrecker on the way to last years Rally. It is not fixed yet. We have one other member with a knuckle boom on a Duece that transfers all the goodies from truck to truck. I am sure things would go a lot quicker with another wrecker and maybe the guys loading could enjoy more of the Rally.

I think that's an excellent name tag Kenny!
Do you think we will get confused if everyone wears a "Clinto" nametag??

Looks very good! What about putting complete names in addition in smaller font at the bottom, except for people that don't want it?

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This would be a tremendous help.
Every year, several of our swap meet sellers/buyers have something BIG to move and it's always been an adventure. One year we had to borrow a tracked skid steer from Durhamtown to load a trailer into a dropside deuce and another year, the guys managed to move a canned multifuel from one deuce to another using broomsticks and grease*
We have one heavy lift vehicle coming (PB's excellent Deuce with knuckleboom hoist) but we'd like to have 2 lift capable vehicles confirmed so that we have a backup. If PB is the only guy bringing a lift truck and he has mechanical troubles, then we're high and dry.
If you end up using your truck for lift ops, I am sure we can get rally attendees to donate some fuel to your thirsty 816.
<-some of that as well.Thanks for the offer
*I can not verify this really happened this way.
