UPDATE (please read from bottom up if this is your first time):
Hi All,
We simply wanted to let you know that we are ready to rock and roll for this Saturday :) If you haven't registered through meetup to attend and you are, please do so now. Though I have my check off list of things to do still, I know it will all come together for when you arrive. So without further ado, we wanted to give you the latest updates of who has stepped up to plate to be a sponsor for give away prizes and to also to let you know about the car class competitions. I'll summarize the day of the agenda to make it easy.
Smart Madness would like to thank our wonderful partners aka our prize sponsors with more to come:

... and more to come!
Kick off is at 10am with registration, coffee and donuts
Then Car competition, with trophies and prizes.
BBQ with live band/ Risky Note/ entertainment/ The Sound (local radio station is coming out too!)
Time to let the games begin!
This time we'll fully dominate the Traffic Circle (aka 1 of SoCal's largest round about) with our smarts to play a game of Poker Rally.
We'll circle back to the shop to see who has the best hand to win the game and to close out our day.
For the smart competition, you will be able to participate in the following classes (our smarts excluded):
Best Theme/ Decoration (This is you and your smart decorated)
Best Custom Paint/ Graphics
Best Interior
Best Modified
Longest Distance award
Crowd Favorite
Here is the list of things you will want to bring:
Foldable chair per guest
Make sure your smart has a full tank or close to it!
SPF
Bottled water for throughout the day
A pen or pencil, preferably a pen
Light jacket/ sweater
Camera and or video camera
Those who have so kindly volunteered to help, I cannot thank you enough. I will contact you within the next few days via meetup or SCOA to let you know. For those that I have seen or spoken to, yes I would love your help at the BBQ and Registration tables :) THANK YOU SO MUCH!
We still need to recruit a volunteer who is able to video our smarts going around the round about. If you've got that talent come on down! :)
I think that's it for now. If I think of anything else I will let you know. We are looking forward to seeing everyone and thanks again for all of your support. OH! We will be selling extra raffle tickets. All raffle, extra ticket money will be donated to meetup.com/socalsmarties so we can keep this site alive. Also, don't forget, the registers will be closed. If you would like to pick up product for your smart, please make sure that place your "WILL CALL" by EOD Friday, 10-6pm :)
Thanks for hanging out to the end and for all the fantastic support. We are humbled :)
Sincerely,
Rachel and Boris along with The SM Team

Due to another committment I won't be able to make it. I hope everyone has a fantastic time! Weathet will also be great. Enjoy!
Nice group of people. Once the ice was broken, everyone had something to share
I wish there had been name tags, there were a few people I would have liked to meet and talk to personally. Not a deal breaker, met a lot of new smarties...
What a blast! It was great to see all the smarts and get to know new people. Completely worth the drive from San Diego. Very fun. Rachael & Boris are awesome!
Thank you everyone for all your support, friendly attitude and company. It was a pleasure have you all there. We are very thankful for all the kind words and cannot wait to do it again. :-)
Log in to Meetup with your Facebook account.
Seeing this announcement made my day! I know that it will be worth the wait and will be the meetup of the year. Boris & Rachel rock!
