It would be great to see a big 'ol bunch of boxes show up for our event, therefore:
Hello fellow Scion owners!
It is my great pleasure to invite you to the ScinergyIA/Wilson Scion All Scion Show 3.0 to be held May 5th, 6th, and 7th here in Ames, IA!
This will be the first ever NATIONWIDE meeting of Scion owners open to EVERYONE! Truly this will be an historical event.
My name is Alex Millen and I will be the primary organizer of this event. I am a Scion owner, Scion salesman, Scion parts guy, and a proud member of ScinergyIA, Iowa’s first Scion Owners’ Club. I have had great fun hosting the first two shows here at the dealership this past year and would like to amp things up for this year. To do that, I need your participation.
I am not going to put a huge hook on this show because I don’t have those kinds of resources and I don’t think that it will be required. This, like every other event I have planned for Scions, will be an event FROM Scion owners FOR Scion owners. What I can promise is a great time, great people, great Scions, and a little piece of history.
Here’s what we will be doing. As mentioned before, this will be a three day event. We will start things on Friday, May 5th 2006 at Old Chicago Restaurant here in Ames. Starting at 6:00pm, Scions will roll in, take their place in the parking lot, and join us inside for a classic meet and greet to build friendships, finally meet face-to-face, and fuel those classic rivalries that make our shows exciting and worthwhile. To get the juices flowing we will award the “Night Rider” trophy to the Scion with the best night time display at 10:00pm (or so). You will NOT want to miss out on this prestigious award!
The following morning will start the main event of the meet, the All Scion Show 3.0 on the Wilson lot. This will be our third (and by far our biggest) Scion only show at Wilson’s. The entire lot will be handed over to our Scions for the day so that we may conduct our car show, play some music, and have some fun. This will be a judged show with trophies and prizes. There will be cash up for grabs as well as parts and gift certificates given away. Categories will include best xA, xB, and tC as well as Best Rims, Best ICE, Best Presentation, and Best of Show. There will be other highly prestigious awards as well from Fujiz.com and my personal favorite, Grizzly’s Choice. The winner of Best of Show WILL take home the tallest car show trophy ever (this will be certified by Guinness). Judging will begin at noon and trophy presentation will begin at 4pm. After the awards are all out we will give everyone a short break before putting together the biggest Scion caravan ever on a scenic drive down to Des Moines where those who like can join in the Scinergy Family Dinner! All others are welcome to explore the “Des Moines Night Life” (it’s more fun than you think!) and generally have fun in Central Iowa on a Saturday night.
Those who are so inclined will be welcome to join us on Sunday for “Brunch and Lies” at Olde Main Brewery in Ames before our tearful good-byes.
So, why should you slog all the way out to Central Iowa in early May? To meet your old friends, to make new friends, to show your love of Scion, to show the strength and solidarity of your club, to have your shot at the tallest car show trophy EVER, to brag that you showed at the first open NATIONWIDE Scion car show, and to be part of Scion history. All Scions will be welcome at the meet from stock to mild to wild to freakin’ nuts.
Many more details will be announced as the show draws closer. This is primarily a notice so that you have 6 full months to plan your trips!
If you have questions, please contact me via PM or email at
alexm@wilsonofames.com. I will be more than happy to help in your planning.
I look forward to seeing EVERYONE there! Thanks so much for your time thus far.
-Alex
