Risen

[ybnrml]

Hey guys we're putting together a benefit show for Bob's family to help out w/ their needs. He left behind a 25year old wife and 3 kids. She was a stay at home mom who homeschooled their kids and now she has to find a job and take care of a mortgage and all of the other bills life has in store. The show is called Risen...a show to honor the fallen. This may be an annual event as well, it just depends on the response we get this year and the turnout. So far we have sponsors and donations for an incredible raffle from...AVS, Graphic Disorder, Layed Out Video, Keg-Media, KingPin Customs, RF Customs, The Kustom Edge, Crime Pays Video, HTownShowScene.com, Weekend Celebrity Productions, Surface, DFWMinis.net, WhataDesigns, B2D Customs, M.A.S.S. judging system, EastTexasMinis.com, Waylayed Inc, Big Johnson's Pinstriping, Kinetik Batteries, Deranged Rides, RPM Graphics, KIK, Braggin Rights Clothing, The Little Shop of Horrors, Ekstensive, and STATUS!!! Going to be some great items to be raffled off!!! There will be a top 25 or a top 50 w/ several Best Of Awards. Also MiniTruckin' magazine will be there shooting coverage as well. The show will be held on Sept. 11th in Carthage, Texas at the Baseball/Softball park off of the loop. I will post up directions soon. It's going to be a great family friendly show w/ some good times and some fun events as well. I hope everyone can come out and show your support to a family in our scene who has lost a fellow minitrucker. Every penny made at this show goes to the family, so please come and enjoy a fun show while blessing a family at the same time. Be sure to bring the kids too, b/c we have alot of fun stuff in store for the kiddos! Don't worry guys, we've got some stuff activities planned for ya'll too...should make for some good times/memories...lol:lowrider::02redxblaze:

We had a great time at KillSwitch this past weekend and just wanted to post a big Thank You to Abel. He waved our vendor fee and told us to put it toward the proceeds of our show Risen which goes to Bob Field's widow and 3 children. How awesome was that guys!!! Thanks Abel and looking forward to seeing you at our show bro. I love our scene...

[ybnrml]

Hey guys, we decided since our show landed on 9/11 that we are going to have a little something special for all of our veterans, police officers, and firemen in honor of ya'lls sacrifices for us. We're going to sell all of our merch for $10 (hats and shirts) to anyone with ID that proves they serve our country. It's not much, but it's all we can do this year. I hope this helps a little and it's our way of saying THANK YOU. I wish we could do more for you guys b/c of ya'lls sacrifice for us...

[CLOVERDRAGGER]

Looks like all this rain may have pushed my work schedule back and I may be working on saturday....

[Jmew]

working inside ftw!

im gonna have my vehicle packed with my crap friday at work if they ask me to work saturday (which probably wont happen anyway)

[ybnrml]

Looks like all this rain may have pushed my work schedule back and I may be working on saturday....

[CLOVERDRAGGER]

Man I hope not. Looking forward to seeing ya there...

[ybnrml]

[ybnrml]

[ybnrml]

I don't think I saw it mentioned here but no alcohol is allowed at the show. Carthage is in a dry county and the ball park is city property so by city ordinance you are not allowed to have alcohol of any type. Sorry guys, but that is how it is and since we want to be able to make this an annual event we have to play nice with the people in charge.

[Jmew]

no worries. plenty of drinking time after the show!

[goin on]

After my garage door breaking, the rain storms, and insurance totaling out my roof, I'll still be able to make it out to the show. Sucks I gotta work on Sunday to fill in for a guy who at the last moment requested vacation.

[Swapmeet]

There's a 20% chance I'll make this. I want to go, and haven't shot a show in awhile.

It would be a real long day with a newborn. :yes:

[Deviousb2200]

as long as my wife can get her check in time we will be there.

[goin on]

[Swapmeet]

Still on the fence. I'll decide by 5:00 today.

[ybnrml]

Looking forward to seeing everyone there! You def. should come Swapmeet!...and to Goin On...that's dedication brother! You've had a heckuva week! Thanks for the love man...see ya tomorrow!

[ybnrml]

Looking forward to seeing everyone there! One more donation came in...B2D Customs sent 4 AirLift bags for the raffle!!! Thank you John and the whole B2D Customs CREW! INSANE raffle!!!

[Swapmeet]

It'll be a miracle if I get there. I've been fighting my trailer all night. Still have a brake light out. Anyway, what time are ya'll cutting off registration? I'm gonna try to be there by 10:00 or 11:00am.

[Jmew]

Im already in Carthage. Eating some Mexican food.

[David76008]

Im already in Carthage. Eating some Mexican food.

Wish I was next to you. That sounds good :(

[Swapmeet]

It sounds great, but i've got some serious acid reflux/ heartburn kickin already. Thinking about messcan food and drinks hurts. :puke:

[Deviousb2200]

Just got to carthage about 15 minutes ago. i dont have a clue where anything is and im hungy.. Im already in the motel and didnt see a food place one near me.

[IH8YOU]

should be leaving dfw in about an hour!

[Swapmeet]

Great show, great turn out given that they had 4 (!!!!) months to promote it and get sponsors.

Bruce said it best at dinner last night. Minitruckers will come together and really pitch in when it comes to helping a family etc.

[s13_project]

Any pictures from the show?

[Swapmeet]

of course

[Swapmeet]

Just a few and some outakes. I'm convinced that ny camera hates mews truck.

Anyway, the rest will be on Socal Tomorrow probably.

Very good show in memory of Bob. He had alot of good true friends that really worked hard to put this together. His wife and parents were very touched from all the support from this event. I hope this event will be back next year. It was cool to let a little boy with a mohawk hit my remote switches and see the look on his face. I had no idea at the time who this little boy was only to find out that it was Bob's son.

[Rojo]

Nice show. I enjoyed it for the little time I was there.

[Jmew]

It was a great show and I had a lot of fun. Had excellent cajun food and got to hang out with some friends.

Of course the best part was rollin past Robin on 59 after the show!

[Deviousb2200]

I was only there for a short time and it was early. There werent alot of people there yet but my kids loved the hell out of the bouse house, couldnt hardly get them out..

[ybnrml]

Well Risen '10 is officially in the books and was an incredible time. Thanks so much to all of our sponsors, clubs, and spectators that helped us raise over $6000 for Bob's wife and children!!! She was overwhelmed and so blessed by the outpouring of our minitruckin community. I hope everyone had a great time and we'd like to thank all of our trophy sponsors as well. The Best Of trophies were insane and really made a nice ending to the show. God Bless everybody who was involved in this show...;)....we had a blast putting it on!

[Swapmeet]

Once again, great show, great cause.

[Deviousb2200]

Thank you for putting on a great show, I would love to see some things from your show carry on to other shows, for example:

-The lack of train horns all day was wonderful
-Not hearing every attendee's stereo blaring different and inconsistent genre's of music was a very welcome difference

I think you did a great job relaying the true message and meaning for everything that you were trying to accomplish with the event and it was really touching seeing the children Bob left behind enjoying the show and participating as well. Keep up the great work and I hope to see this show return to support another worthy cause next year.

[LayNLow92Chevy]

Nice pics Swap. I had a gret time. Hope it comes back around next year!

[LayNLow92Chevy]

my kids flipped when the green VW rolled in. the hot dogs were hella good to. they tore em up faster than i have ever seen them do.

I was in the passenger seat, so they might have been just been pointing and laughing at me lol.

[ybnrml]

Thank you guys for the kind words. It's exactly what we wanted to hear from ya'll. It was our goal to honor Bob, raise money for his family, show them our love and support, have a fun family atmosphere, and honor God with our message. Thanks everyone for helping Risen be such a success to Courtney. Her family told me afterward that this was the happiest they had seen her since Bob passed away.

[hotrodyota]

man guys thanks for all the kind words... ill be the first to admit i had no idea how stressful it is to through a show and i didnt have half the stress that shay did. but on a good note we have alot more time to plan out risen '11 and will do every thing we can not to have it on a date with other shows. the local people of carthage really have never seen our scene in full force like this and they loved it and have asked if we could make this an annual show so if you have any input or opinions we are open to hear them all. thanks to everyone for coming and proving you can come to a family friendly show and still have a great time! we loved hearing it from everyone that told us this. our awards ceremony was awesome for bobs family and his wife was so happy with all of the support thanks once again to everyone

[Deviousb2200]

I was in the passenger seat, so they might have been just been pointing and laughing at me lol.

haha my son took my wifes phone to take pics of it too. I had to take pics with my camera for them too. Saw it again today at TIAO and they were like whoA there it is again. haha. hopefully the next show you guys have I can spend more time out there.

[SaltineKracka]

[Deviousb2200]

[sideshow]

My coverage is up on www.damageincclub.com

I didn't do the awesome show justice because I'm a tard and I forgot my camera when we switched rides on the way to the show. I took these with my phone. Sorry.

[Billy Taylor]

I had a great time, enjoyed the location and the atmosphere... it was a great cause..
Can't wait to see what "RISEN" 11 has up there sleeves....

[ybnrml]

Also THANKS to Robin and Edward for their footage of the show! I appreciate it guys!

[JETSETTER]

I enjoyed going to this show! It was a very pleasant change from your typical mini truck show that we attend today. There were no belligerent drunks, no obnoxious antics, no one doing burnouts, no loud music wars! No disrespectful people.... I loved it! I will be back if they have this show again! It was great seeing Bob's kids enjoying the day, and I don't think anyone that stayed for the raffle & awards will forget that experience. I just have to give you guys props for making it one great day for us to enjoy our trucks and friendships. I know that it was worth the 9 hours on the road and the $150 in gas!

Agreed 100% :02redxblaze:

[sideshow]

Here are the pics of the trophies I took to the show.

Bayou City Baller hooked it up and painted another deck for me to give out at Risen. I didn't get any good pics of it out in the sun because I forgot my camera when we switched rides on the way there. Here is what it looked like. Believe me pictures do not do this board justice. I was also asked to pick up and drop off the trophies by kingpin kustomz and the kustom edge. The kustom edge was the best of show trophy and kingpin was best interior. Kingpin made theirs look like Bob. It was a hit with Bob's family and everyone loved it.
