If I hadn't have just gotten a new dog, would have been a really good excuce for a road trip. I know, long, long way but I's write it off as a vacation, Got people I'd like to see in CO. WHAT is up with it being stuck for so long? DG made a darn good job of getting it moved down South.

I'm not sure what the plan for the banner is once it hits the Canadian side, but if it's in Calgary before August I can drive it from Calgary, AB to Nova Scotia(the complete other side of Canada) as I'll be moving back home there middle of August.

Id' drive to Provo myself if I could, but I just can't swing it. I thought about it though. From Sacramento to Provo is 692 miles.
692 x 2(round trip) = 1384 Miles
1384Miles / 15MPG = 92.27 Gallons
92.27 x $4 = $369.08
Just in gas. Then I still gotta get from Sac. to the coast, which is another 200 miles(round trip)
Hey Ryannn, go get it and bring it to me.:thefinger:

A volunteer!
Maybe the guys in each state could pitch in some gas money together for one individual/passengers could travel to get the Banner....that way everybody saves on gas/cash....the member who gets the
banner brings it to his group to get signatures.
This way.....long distances can be covered without a couple members bearing the expense.....Somebody work out the details....my little brain hursts!
EDIT: Jim O.............I looked at Part 1 of the Banner Trip........GREAT JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
RE-EDIT: I just read Part 2.......double great job!!!!!!!

if it comes within a houndred miles or so i will pick it up if needed and drop it of with jester in sacto
I can take it all the way from Utah to Ft. Lewis washington in a couple weeks. I leave Ft. Polk june 2nd... I will be wheeling moab on the 5th... should be up in provo that night.
If someone wants to meet me along my path... just look at mapquest. From Salt Lake I'll be shooting over to Elko, NV to wheel with a buddy, then from there I think I head towards winnamucca (sp?) and head up. If people just want to meet to sign it and cannot carry it, I'm cool with that too. This is the best I can do though.

POST YOUR USERNAME/CITY/STATE/TERRITORY IN THIS THREAD SO IT CAN BE ADDED TO THE MAP LIST!
well if everyone is cool with it, it sounds like I could easily take it in provo, meet up with those two other guys along my way so they can get pics/sign it. Anyone else along my path that wants to meet up is welcome. Hand it off in washington, and then it can make its way down the coast/pacific for more pics/signatures.

We were thinking about doing this on the 10th and 11th of June due to the fact that we have school and work.

well, beings it showed so much interested up in washington/oregon. I figure if I take it all the way to lewis with me, there seemed to be enough people to drop it down oregon and along cali. so we can get more people involved/signed/pictures. I will meet up with anyone along my way if they want to, just let me know!!
I will be rolling through wennemucca on the 7th or 8th I think. I will PM you when I get to Elko. I will be staying in Elko... so I wont be much further to meet up with anyone that wants to meet up. I'll be out there wheeling:icon_thumby:

canadian leg: Kirk, i honestly think it's best to have it go up north first, as getting it up there from anywhere is going to be difficult as hell, and edmonton NEEDS to get it, if we get it here in calgary... there's 3-4 members in edmonton, and possible one more in red deer?
i may or may not still be in calgary when it hits here, i'm just waiting for selection for the armed forces, and if all goes well, i will most likely be in eastern canada for basic training in the next 2 months, will be there for 4 months, then a different area of eastern canada for about a year and a half...
yukon and alaska are going to miss out alltogether, if this doesn't go north from calgary... as i highly doubt that it will make it back up here, and they have already worked out the logistics as far as i know, so it would be a shame to miss that section of the journey... eastern canada is close enough to where the banner needs to finish that it can make it up there pretty well...

Maybe the guys in each state could pitch in some gas money together for one individual/passengers could travel to get the Banner....that way everybody saves on gas/cash....the member who gets the
banner brings it to his group to get signatures.
I'd contribute.

Someone that meets up with NMB2 should have him come over to there place and let his use there computer and get his current pics uploaded to the thread. where is he anyway. has he been outside Humboldt National Forest for the last 6 days?
haha... no secret mission. We just met super late at night, and I still had about 2 hours of driving left, so it was a fairly quick hand-off. I am at Ft. Lewis now, staying in a hotel in Tacoma off exit 129. I told Black B2 to pass my number onto anyone that would potentially be near me in NV that wanted to meet up as I had no internet access.
I'm going to be really busy this week in-processing post, but I seen up above that there were several members in the area, and I figure most also work during the week, so if we could get a little meet up going this weekend and a hand-off to the member(s) that were going to make it hit down to Oregon, that would be great.
Just PM me to exchange phone numbers/plans.

NOTICE:
We are very close to the Pacific Ocean. This has been a major undertaking, and we should seriously consider getting media coverage. Especially since social media is such a hot topic today. We couldn't have done this without it.
I think the person who dips it should be the one who's willing to contact the media, explain it, and see if they will cover it.
Here's a email I sent to Scott Monty at Ford:
Hey Scott,
Here's something you might find interesting.
In 2010 I set out to see if we could move a banner from the Atlantic Ocean to the Pacific Ocean using only the members of our forum. The members use the forum to coordinate hand off's and meeting locations, and everyone who comes in to contact with the banner signs it. It can't move forward unless it's physically given to another forum member and they drive it.
It started out on May 20th 2010 being dipped in the Atlantic Ocean around Worcester MA. From there it travelled across the country getting signed, and even got dipped in the Gulf of Mexico. This past winter slowed it down, but it finally made it to Ft. Lewis (near Seattle) Washington where it's very close to achieving its mission. I've thought about getting the media involved when it happens, and explaining how this all happened from a group of Ford enthusiasts using a message forum.
Here's the whole forum thread:
http://www.therangerstation.com/forums/showthread.php?t=81304 (mhtml:{36402152-5003-4CF6-864B-A5FE78D6F437}mid://00003095/!x-usc:http://www.therangerstation.com/forums/showthread.php?t=81304)
Here's some articles I've put together with group photos:
http://www.therangerstation.com/Magazine/Summer2010/TRS_Banner_Across_America.htm (mhtml:{36402152-5003-4CF6-864B-A5FE78D6F437}mid://00003095/!x-usc:http://www.therangerstation.com/Magazine/Summer2010/TRS_Banner_Across_America.htm)
http://www.therangerstation.com/Magazine/January2011/TRS_Banner_Across_America_A2.htm (mhtml:{36402152-5003-4CF6-864B-A5FE78D6F437}mid://00003095/!x-usc:http://www.therangerstation.com/Magazine/January2011/TRS_Banner_Across_America_A2.htm)
I'm working on a 3rd story right now that will bring it up to its current location.
I know your profession evolves around social media, and figure you of all people could appreciate what our members have put in to this. It's a big task to be undertaken using nothing but a forum to coordinate it and post photos. The banner has been to some interesting places.
Thanks,
Jim Oaks
TheRangerStation.com
I think this is a bigger deal than any of us realize, and the right people trying to push social media may want to be all over it. Hell, I wish I had the $$ to be there.
Remember, the mission is to get it dipped in the Pacific. That doesn't mean it can't still go up or down the coast.

Those times arent going to work, because I'm at work. I start my permissive TDY thursday so I'll have some spare time between then and next week.
I'm thinking I may be able to go dip this thing also.... would like some people to join me though. I think Racinndrummin is in

I'm in too, Sundays work best for me. I was thinking maybe the long beach or ocean shores area might be a sweet place to dip it.

Take the banner to work and go over to the RANGER BATTALION and get the CSM to sign it -that would get some press :icon_thumby: the newspaper on Ft. Lewis just happens to be called THE RANGER ! RANGER BANNER-RANGER BATTALION-RANGER NEWSPAPER- ONLY IN AMERICA

I hope nobody gets upset about it being dipped??? Its not the end of the banners journey, its not going to disappear, it will continue traveling guys.
As far as a day, I'm sure a weekend would be best, probably best to coordinate with each other through PM/text/phone so we dont have to rely on checking here if there is a last minute change.

How long it gonna be held up in wa now?? We have greater potential to move this thing alot now.
NMB2 can meet one of the guys from PDX halfway to allow the numerous Portland guys and surrounding area sign And then I can meet one of them half way say Albany to pick it up and bring it to Springfield/Eugene. Then i can have a meet and greet here then meet CHANCE from Roseburg half way then he can meet one of the many boys from Grantspass and so on.
Now that we are on the West coast there is alot of members to meet and pass it on.
I do second that maybe we let the Socal boys dip it

Im sure we could wrangle a few bikini clad hotties...:beer:
How does the 10th sound? Not to make it convenient for me or anything, but Ill already be in ocean shores that weekend...and that will give everybody enough time to make plans...
Also, I said it in the NW section, so Ill say it here, Im headed up to Vancouver BC sometime next month'ish, Im up for a weekend in the summer every year, and I would be more than willing to setup a meet and bring the banner up with me, as well as bring it back down so nobody gets worried and it makes it way to cali. I was thinking meeting up at the white spot for lunch and getting a good photo op at stanley park... Weezl, can you get the canadian guys together for something like that??? Would they/you be interested??

i'll see what i can do, though i'm nowhere near vancouver right now (that's where i'm from) but i'm about 10-12 hours away from there right now... (but like i said, i've got a buddy out there for the next week) though that won't really help... next time i plan to be in vancouver is for my sister's wedding in august? so i can't really help much there... i'll do some digging for people in vancouver area though, and i'll send them some pm's to check this thread

He probably means Chance's final resting place, and meet his family, too.
A cruise sounds fun. Weezl, can I go in your place? :icon_idea:
Whoever is able to dip it first, then sobeit. However, I vote for the bikinis and multple TRS members first!
I think Weezle can be trusted, DG. Canadian thing aside, I think he's worthy, eh.
You get bonus points since you will be traveling by ferry to GWAII.

ok, first, i'm about 10-12 hours from the closest ocean, on top of that, there is a probably 20 hour ferry ride to gwaii (if they even run up there) i've got a route planned that will take it to samsquanch ryda, mougal mark, kidney beans, gweilo, and original warden, who are all up north of the major cities in western north america
met up with Jake, aka endoverend47 tonight at my new house.

depends where. i travel to warrenton(check the banner map) everyday for work. longbeach isn't too far from there, but a 120mile hilly commute per day is raping me on gas money so i can't afford to go much further than that.
im off work on the weekends
needs to be a weekend for me as well. We just need to pick a weekend and roll with it.
BRUTUS_T_HOG
06-29-2011, 01:47 PM
i'll set aside some gas money and then i'll be ok with any weekend probably. now to figure how far everyone wants to travel
stiluv
06-29-2011, 08:11 PM
let me know im willing to travel
alright, I've spoken to numerous members here personally on the phone or through PM and the general consensus is that it needs to be a weekend. I am currently on permissive TDY and I come off of it after this weekend. This weekend is probably not a good weekend for most, and I know that I am supposed to go to the field soon. As soon as I get back to work next week and find out when I am going to the field, and for how long. I will choose a weekend, expect to have about 2 weeks notice, and then we will just roll with that weekend. I think this is the easiest way to do it. So we are looking at around 3 weekends from now is my best guess, including this weekend.
