As you all know, the Spring Showdown is currently seeking a new home for the 2009 show. I called the Salem Civic Center & actually spoke o someone who knew what they were talking about since everyone thought the quote given to me was a bit high. Here's what I found out:



Base Rental of Salem Civic Center: $2500 per day + 5% of gross ticket sales

Box office personnel: $150

Two (2) Ticket Takers: $200

One (1) Custodian: $175

One (1) Security Guard: $175



FREE STAGE (12x15)

FREE RESTROOM USAGE

No charge for concessions



Roanoke= Not available

Salem= ONE DAY SHOW, Local, Large Venue than Roanoke & Cost a Little More than Roanoke Civic Center, very limited events, more sponsors needed.

Motor Mile Dragway= TWO DAY Show, Bigger & Better, more events: Drop'n Drag, Burnout, Test'n Tune, Fun Runs, Camping, Cruisin, Motorcycle Stunt Team, less sponsors needed.



Is this what we want to do because if we do the Salem Civic Center... it's only a one day show again.... but if we do the Motor Mile Dragway.... it's a 2 day show & we have more events... let me know what you think.

My vote is for the Dragway.

Motor Mile Dragway!!!!!!!!
