Make the show a more important and organized part of the event, rather than just "every man for himself" like it seems to be now.
Phil, I do not mean for you to do all this yourself. There are plenty of people willing to help that you can delegate these roles to.

Kevin, All have been thought of... I actually took one step back and realized what the issue is and already talked to NVNC owners about this issue.. which is lack of parking and lack of place to get great photos.
I'm not just thinking of car show issue but also why we had to drive to Fontana second day. So, I'm working on it to fix all this, which will fix not only the car show issue but other issues as well. This year was bit different as I wanted a magazine worth group shot like 2007 shot at the Dam. But that also didn't work out as TVA didn't let me use the 1st parking lot.
Either case, I do appreciate the input, but I'm really thinking how I could make the event better for everyone... including parking, car show, better photos, etc... Only thing I haven't thought of at this point is the stupid food issue and award ceremony. Also, how I'm going to get Blount Co. to help us out
And Yes, I'll be honest with you... the big problem to car show was that we didn't get the judges to start voting until close to the end. Its not the judges fault, but really the time and us (I guess me?) But again, all this because we had from 9-12 and most of that time people are still checking in and parking.
Regarding 1st gen... as I feel like this thread just took a dump from congratulating people who won to lets complain about the show... The 1st gen guy who won, registered at the event and we didn't have his name on the master list. Also the guy who tallied up the car show results was sleeping during award ceremony so he could help me drive back to Bham... Again, its all my fault and I admit it was bit crazy... and not on my priority of things
