NYC - 2011 Ford Explorer Reveal Event


As you all know, on Monday, July 26, 2010, our club had the chance to be part of a publicity event in NYC - the world wide reveal of the new 2011 Ford Explorer. It was an early start to the day (don't you hate it when the alarm goes off at 4 a.m.?), but it was a fun chance to see how one of these events work from a "behind the scenes" point of view. As you would expect, there were a lot of "hurry up and wait" ...






as well as a constantly "changing vision" of the event -




but it was fun to watch unfold and be a part of!





It's taken a few days to gather and edit our photos and video, but here they are - here are a ton of photos from the day, courtesy of Mary Beth Van Wart, and here is some video, courtesy of Mike Moskowitz. Special thanks to Heather Kahl for taking the email offer (which was mailed out to a few local clubs) and running with it - gathering photos and bios, selling our club as the best group for the event, and even finding parking for all our oversize vehicles in NYC!
