Thread: Early-Bird Track Purchase Program

Happy New Year!

Details here: http://www.nissan-infiniti.us/registration/Early-Bird.pdf

Most of you know me at least in name. Some of you have actually met and know me. I am co-organizing the 2011 Nissan-Infiniti National Convention. This convention has evolved from the SE-R world to try to include all Nissans and Infinitis (and Datsun as well). You can take a look at the link below for all of the information (we will be updating the site periodically as we get more information).

Website: 2011 Nissan-Infiniti National Convention : Registration

The reason I’m writing though is to let you know of an early-bird track registration program. We are accepting registrations for this early-bird program through the end of January. The details are at the link up at the very top.

There are a few reasons for this early-bird program:

- Plain and simple, we need money in the coffers. We need to put deposits down on things, we need to pay for supplies, we need to be able to pay for online registration/paypal fees

- See the attached document for details but there is a potential discount to early-bird registrants. In short, if we hit our target, we will be refunding a portion of your registration. We’re hoping that this will help us market the event. It gives you, the registrant, a vested interest in promoting the event and getting more people registered!

- We’re looking to generate interest early on. The convention is “only” 8 months away but that time will fly by quickly. We want people to get interested and we want to maintain that interest

For anyone worried about not knowing me and sending me money, I want to assure you that I have nothing to hide. My username is my name; Kieran Lavin. I don’t want people posting it publicly (if you feel I have wronged you, please contact me... if I absolutely positively don't respond to any form of communication (which will NOT happen) then I would have no problem with my information being posted publicly... but, like I said, that will NOT happen) but, if you did a simple search, I’m sure you could find my home address, phone number, employer, whatever. I’m not going anywhere.

Check is in the mail...

Sending a check right now, on the way to the Post Office.

It says to send the check or money order to Ray Kawski.

Do we also make the check/m.o. out to Ray? To Kieran? Doesn't matter much?

...Made the check out to Kieran.

Yeah, we're a bit clusterf'd with our organization and that's part of why weren't doing it this way as opposed to an online registration to complicate things... at least for the early-bird.

The Post Office has recently rejected stuff *NOT* addressed to Ray so that's why I said to send it addressed to him. The checking account (he reminded me the other day) is still under SE-R Club of America so technically the checks should be made out to SE-R Club of America. So whether you make the check out to me or Ray or whatever, we'll do what we have to in order to get the funds into the right place. This month of early bird should give us a chance to see and figure out where our kinks are. Thanks again for the support

While I'm responding, the interest we're getting from the various models of Nissan/Infinitis is overwhelming. While people may not be AS willing as some of us to put their money where their mouth is just yet, we should be very well attended. Those who wait will just have to pay more

Sent email. Will send check tomorrow.

You shall have to personally cash the check that I sent to Ray.


Least I could do. Thanks for busting your balls to make this event happen.

Actually, come to think of it, I think my name is on the SE-R Club of America account that we'll be depositing it. So technically I guess I could just sign and then we can deposit it. I dunno... I've been doing all my banking online so long I don't know what the inside of a bank looks like. Do they have robot tellers yet?

No problem on making it happen... the enthusiasm from everyone we're experiencing so far makes it well worth it. We just need to keep that level of enthusiasm up

banks have insides??

I think it is safe for me to say this for Shawn and myself.... Enthusiasm will only go up as the day gets closer.

what does this mean

The purchase price for HPDE1 students shall be $225. The purchase price for HPDE2, HPDE3, and HPDE4 students shall be $200. As is standard in NASA Northeast, the HPDE1 students pay more money to subsidize the instructors that are there, committed to servicing the HPDE1 students

does HPDE1 translate to inexperienced competetors??

will be sending payment tomorrow

cant wait!!!!!!
