Post in here if you may be interested.

I understand that they are on Facebook as that’s where I get my stuff as well. If you post them up here as well, maybe we can get more Texas bolters to meet up with us!
Eventually, I’d love to have a weekend of wrenching, good food, and memories with a bunch of bolters.

Chris Agree with Chris. Bill, that link has a whole whole bunch of events.  I was amazed. At least one thing every day. Much more on weekend. The website has cool pictures or maybe flyers for the events. All Central Texas. Lots of doings pardner.  Maybe someone(s) will pick out something that has potential for the group to meet up, or something. At least post. The Rocky Mountains Bolters has a sticky with "Upcoming Events." Maybe something like that? Maybe too much work??

Someone with the ability to do so could clean up past events. | | | | | Joined: Jan 2013 Posts: 2,232 Moderator: Interiors, Texas Bolters, Name that Part | | Moderator: Interiors, Texas Bolters, Name that Part Joined: Jan 2013 Posts: 2,232 | I agree, consider making an events folder for shows, etc that are not “bolter” organized. If it starts to get too busy, we might consider breaking it down by major cities. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 5,066 Authorized Pest | | Authorized Pest Joined: Apr 2004 Posts: 5,066 | That's how all this (getting social) started: The easiest way for a successful get together, is we target a good show to piggy back on... These would be good to piggy-back on. Lots of reasons Stovebolt doesn't need to set something up, other than to post an event(s) to let people know it's out there. Then find out via the post / thread to see who may be going and a way to recognize each other. If it's a total bust, the Moderator(s) can purge the post. If it had some response, always good to get some "hot wash" with story and pictures. That's how most Side Lot regions have been doing it. Key is to do all the contacts via the website so when someone is searching, they can see it here and respond. (I do the searches for keywords and it's amazing how people have found the Bolt with some very simple key phrases or words.  )
