Items to bring to Spyderfest, ADD to the list.

[Cruzr Joe]

Over the next week or so i am going to add items that would be good to bring with you for Spyderfest, Please post your suggestions also.

1) Introduction cards

This is a picture of my old cards, you can make up 500 from Vistaprint.com for about $15.00, great way to help folks remember who you are and how to contact you.

2) Rain Gear, never know when it will come in handy in Springfield, MO.

3)Warm and cool clothes, weather in Springfield changes often.

OK throw yours out here.

#4 - money to shop with at Vendor Village

#5 - soap to wash your Spyder with. Last year I had to beg dish soap at the hotel office. The camp host graciously provided rags, though. Also, consider bringing your favorite detailer for touch-ups.

What to bring?

You! Lots of folks wonder if they should go. GO! They wonder if they will fit in? GO! Will people be friendly? GO! Will you have a great time? GO! Will you spend lots of money? YES! Will it be an absolute ball? YES!
We ride hard for nearly 3 days to make it. Worth every mile! GO! No regrets, no remorse, no excuses: GO!
See you there! Joe

$$$$$$$$ & then somenojoke Its a trip so be sure to have fun Lot to see, more to Farkle:helpsmilie: I see where others washed the spyder...? Not for me ill do that when I get back thank you. & probably with Lamont's black diamond cleaner if I can catch in time at auction Other thing to note is extra room for the farkles that you acquire in addition to what you had packed & used. Glad I got a Rivco sissy bar bag for my extras, otherwise I'd have to mail them. Hoping for trailer in time for this years. GONNA BE GREAT!!!!!!:b2b::yes::yes::yes:

:agree: Whoopie cushions and Clown noses... Check! :thumbup:

 

[Trbayth]

Laundry detergent pods if you're traveling from a long distance. They don't take up very much room and you get to pack less if you plan to do a load of laundry at some point.

 

[Bob Denman]

Orrrr...
Bring old clothes, and throw them out as you get done with them. Re-Stock your wardrobe as needed.
Another option: mail the dirty laundry home! :thumbup:

 

[Tango]

We ran out of cash last year. :shemademe_smilie: So bring more than you will think you need. :hun: Paying cash helps greatly at the vendor village! Didn't wash "WALL E" till we got home. Got rid of my old undies along the way. :yikes: Pay your credit cards before you leave. :thumbup: Tom :spyder:

 

[Bob Denman]

I almost forgot...

[Bob Denman]

I've got to look nice... :thumbup:

Back to Joe's original post: I have tried to work out a design for some cards through Vista-Print, and I just can't get it to come out the way that I'd like... :banghead:

Kris will bring her singing voice. I've never been able to find mine.

...and for those coming from overseas:

A couple of tips....Two bags as big as the airline will let you get away with. On the way in last year I put one inside the other.
The bare minimum of clothing. Plenty of good looking T-shirts etc. will be bought anyway! Don't eat for a week beforehand!
If you can get a cheap fishing vest/gilet to wear on the flight, like the one pictured, you can get your carry-on stuff and flight docs.
in it and it won't be classed as luggage.....
