    I was wondering if we were going to have a 2020 calendar?  I absolutely loved my 2018 calendar and is still the only calendar hanging up in my shop. 

    While going through all the work of a calendar, printing it off, shipping it etc is totally out of my wheelhouse, I am willing to step up and do it. 

    I would think I would need some permission from  @Cuda Cody Not looking to make any money or profit at all.  Anyways just throwing out a few ideas.  Unless of course someone else wants to step up and do it.

   Don't forget, the 1970 year might get a little preferential treatment because of the 50 year anniversary.

I really loved the way the 2018 calendars turned out.  The issue for 2019 and what will also most likely be the issue for 2020 is time it takes to do it and the cost.  We have a small budget to work with each year and we thought it would be best to focus our resources toward having a party / event at the 2020 Carlisle show.  If we re-direct those funds towards a calendar (which we can do if that's what everyone wants), we still need to find someone to make them and take the time to ship each calendar.  It's a lot to take on so anyone that is going to do it has to know up front that it's not just a couple hours of work.  It takes days to put something like this together and track all the orders.

I agree!  We can pay for Calenders... Spend the money at Carlisle.... Or piss the East coast guys off & spend it at Spring Fling!!! :haha:

I messaged @Swamp Donkey and suggested that if someone looked after the layout and sent it electronically to get printed somewhere near me that I could look after the shipping. I assume that this is doable in today's electronic age. I'm in NY state a couple times a month so I could ship from both sides of the border.
Personally, I think that directing club funds for a Carlisle party will only benefit 30-50 members. Using them for a calendar would give benefit to any member that wishes to get one.  :alan2cents:

Aside from the time of shipping and tracking car pictures and deciding which pictures to put in it what is the dollar value of getting the calendars printed? Approximate of course.

I too would be willing to pay for a calendar no problem  :takemymoney:

I believe they could be mailed under media USPS cheapest shipping Don't know for sure but worth investigating

I be willing to pay for one also.
I know it's a lot of work and costs a bit of money to do a calendar.

If there's anything I can help with also I'm in. A group effort would be nice.  :grouphug:

  I'm going to let this thread marinate for a few days, and see what shakes out. Can't wait to long, I guess if the calendars are to start shipping around the middle of November.

  As I start doing some research on calendars, the prices are all over the place.  Depending on size, type of paper, matte or gloss, the price changes dramatically.  Anywhere from $5 to over $20 per.  That is of course in my funny loonie money up here in Canada.

   I also know that I should not have any input on photo selection. I lean way to far to the modified pro touring e-bodies
