Annual Jeep Show > 17th Annual (2012)

Just wanted to voice some anger

<< < (2/3) > >>

I am not trying to be selfish.  I was unable to make contact with any of the coordinators that afternoon since I was upset with the issue.  Like I said I have been to every Show here in York since the first.  I am sure since I am local that I will continue to attend.  Although I do believe that the tone in which you responded Rick is kind of uncalled for I was simply trying to bring it to the attention of the staff so that it could be addressed.  Maybe from now on it could be advertised as raffle immediately following the parade.  I am thankful to know that I did not miss any of my numbers since I was there by the first recall.  Hope to have a good show again next year.

Perhaps you might want to join PA Jeeps and help volunteer at the show next year?

That would be especially awesome, since you are local. Most of the volunteers travel quite a way, take days off from work, and camp on site in order to provide you with an awesome weekend. If you experienced all of the (totally volunteer) work first hand that takes place before, during, and after the event to make it a success, perhaps you would not be so fast to complain about a 15 minute inconvenience.

As Rick stated, any missing numbers were "re-called."

Yes, I am challenging you to join PA Jeeps!  ;D

I appreciate the challenge to join the reason I do not is I am unfortunately too busy to enjoy any of the rides or meetings.  I have to take time off work months in advance just to be able to make it to the show.  I would not mind helping out next year if I can do so without joining since I usually take the weekend off anyway.

first off sorry about the misunderstanding, and as it was posted there were still many pajeepers either dismantling the show or attending to the four wheel drive convention (agm). and 2nd were not sticklers that you have to go to any meetings or on any rides. we have many members that only ever come to the jeep show. and besides if youre a member jeep show rate for both days is half price for preregistration. ;D

I don't think Rick meant to offend anyone. I think he was just trying to make the point that there were literally hundreds of people waiting so we wanted to get things rolling so folks didn't get restless. If we had waited people would have complained that we made them wait. You can't please everyone with a crown that large. Anyway, it's really hard to interpret someone's exact intended tone in forum posts. Sarcasm, frustration, and passion can easily be mistaken for something else. One might have thought that your tone in this post was uncalled for:

But let's all give each other the benefit of the doubt and assume there was no ill will on anyone's part and continue to support each other in our Jeep family. Thanks for coming out to the show for so many years and we look forward to seeing you again next year.
