Whats The Best Way to Start a Club?? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

turleylox · 01-25-2010, 10:34 PM

I'm from central Kentucky and would love to have a local club to meet and correspond with other Camaro owners in my area. As far as I know, there are no Camaro Clubs around here. Any ideas or help would be appreciated.

Go to the regional section under the main forum homepage scroll down and you'll see links to access regional forum pages. Don't see your local? Make one :-) good luck

Start hiring all the local hipsters to pass out fliers adorned with words such as "Da bomb" and pictures of the hottest new rap stars getting dow....... Wait, not that kinda club?

Seriously though, I'd say a great place to start is right here. From what I can tell Camaro5 members come from all over the place. I am sure there are a handful of us from your neck of the woods. Put the word out here that you're looking to organize something and go from there.

Just throw a UK sticker on the Camaro, those fans are everywhere.

I just joined this site. I have a 5th gen 2SS Inferno Orange. I just transferred over from a Harley because of kids and making the wife happy. I am used to getting together for meets as we do it all the time on bikes. I live in Hudson, FL which is on the west coast about 45 min NW of Tampa. I am definietly up for some crusies/get togethers. Hope to hear about something soon!

Starting here is a good place, read the threads and hunt down the folks who are from your area. Another good way to start and I've done it in conguntion with using this site, is to go to your local chevy dealership. If you don't have one, then go to the closest one to your town. Get friendly with whoever owns a 2010 Camaro at that dealership, talk to him/her and find out if he/she would be interested in participating in a Camaro Club. If there is any interest, get the dealership involved. Why? They have a list (albeit mixed in with all the other cars sold) of all the 2010 Camaro's sold since last spring.

Through a lot of visits and a lot of talking I got our local dealership to sponsor the first Camaro Meet / Club Meet and they are going to send out flyers to all the folks who purchased 2010 Camaro's in the name of getting us all together to Celebrate this great car we all have in common.

I too have never started up a club. So be patient as it will take time, it took about me about 4 months and it is just now finally coming together. The dealership has signed off on it, they have given us the back lot, a large conference room in case of bad weather and they are providing refreshments as well.

PM me anytime you need anything for ideas, to unload your frustrations about stupid people, etc... I'll be here to help. You're welcome to come down for our meet and see how it turned out if you like.

Cool guys, thanks for all the insight. I'll get started.

Dforce0990 · 02-01-2010, 03:14 PM

Good luck! I know it seems like a huge task to accomplish but I started a bike club here in town with two members, now we have over twenty. My camaro isn't even here yet but I have already been in contact with people in the area and they are all for it. So if ya want it enough it will happen.

Cool, Do you have any ideas? I would like to get something started soon so we can get together in early spring if thats possible. Where are you from? I'm close to Bowling Green. PM me and I'll give you my number so we can talk about it more. I was thinking maybe Elizabethtown since its right in the middle of the state. That way maybe more people would be interested in coming down for a meet. If anyone else might be interested in this, please PM me or post up on here to get the ball rolling.
