Here's how: Buckeye Classic Model Car Contest Sponsorship Buckeye Scale Auto Club is having a model car contest in Columbus. We are a well established Columbus area model car club with 30 years of modeling excellence. Now is your opportunity to get in on the ground floor of what promises to be the premiere model car contest in the state of Ohio. We have several members that compete in contests regularly and have appeared in national publications as well as having put on shows in the past. This event will take place on March 27, 2011 at the Ramada Plaza Hotel and Conference Center 4900 Sinclair Rd. There will be a contest judged by participant vote with a vendor area in a 4000 square foot room. Both national model car publications have been invited to attend as well as some model manufacturers who have accepted our invitation. Well known resin car and parts manufacturers and other accessory retailers will be present. This is adult run contest for what is mainly an adult hobby. Most of the participants are 40+ year old males with discretionary income from the local area. We expect a minimum of 70 participants, 50 vendors, and at least as many shoppers as participants in the vendor area. This is an opportunity to bring your business to their attention by sponsoring our event. There are several levels of involvement for you to choose from. A full event sponsor allows you top billing on our flyers, banners, posters, and a class sponsorship. It allows you to promote your business 100% at this venue. For example, the contest would be “The Buckeye Classic Model Car Contest presented by your business†in all references to the show. Your company’s name would also appear on the coveted “Best of Show†trophy. The cost for this is $600. An associate sponsor would receive second billing to the club in all references to the show. For example, “The Buckeye Classic Model Car Contest presented by the Buckeye Scale Auto Club and your business.†You could post banners and include flyers for your business in participant “Goodie†bags. You will also receive a class sponsorship described below. This level of sponsorship would require a $250 commitment. A class sponsorship would allow you advertise in the area where the class you are sponsoring is located and will put your company’s name on the trophy. For example, if your business were to sponsor the street rod class, the placards for that class would read “Street Rod Class presented by your business†and the trophies would read “1st place Street Rod presented by your business.†You would also be able to place a banner advertising your business at the edge of the table where the cars for that class are located. Class sponsorship is a $25 commitment. You can sponsor on multiple levels and multiple times to maximize your opportunity to promote your business. This promises to be the beginning of the premiere model car event in the state of Ohio and you can be in on the ground floor. Let us promote your business to potential customers through our venue, on our flyers, as well as local and national media. See the bottom of this page for sponsorship opportunities!

Ramcharger Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 I understand there may be some representatives from some model car magazines to photograph models for publication. That will be sweet to get some of these fine model cars in print. See you there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

59 Impala Posted March 3, 2011 Author Share Posted March 3, 2011 I'm glad that you can make it Donn. I really enjoyed our talk at the IPMS national show we had when you were there. I don't know if you remember me but I do remember you and Kathie. Looking forward to you being here again for our first show and hopefully we'll have a lot more shows in the future. Your more likely to be bright tailed and bushy eyed instead of bright eyed and bushy tailed tho. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flamefink Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Is that Ramada the old Mid West hotel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
59 Impala Posted March 19, 2011 Author Share Posted March 19, 2011 Brett, sorry it took so long to respond, but I'm not sure if it was or not. I'm not from here originaly, I'm from Akron, so I don't know what it used to be if anything else. It is very easy to get to though. When you exit I-71 on Sinclair (the Morse Rd. exit) you turn right at the light and the hotel is right there on the right. You can see it when you get off the highway to the right. I hope this helps ya or maybe someone else who is more familiar with this area will respond. Hope to see ya there. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you come up with something let me know or we can all just take over a spot somewhere in the hotel. Tom.. You know you want to come out.. Nothing like doing shows every weekend..

Tom, it is right next to the 71 at the Morse Road/Sinclair off ramp. It is about 6 stories. From your area should be about 3 hours I am thinking. Look forward to seeing you there.
