Hi Martin & Vicky
Love your trailer!
And yes we would love to have you aboard as B.C.Chapter Memebers of the Tear Jerkers.
Joining the Tear Jerkers is a free thing as Steve says. Just go to their website either thru google or directly from here using the "Frendly Links" at the top of thei TnTTT home page.
And sign up!
Once you are a TJ member PM me your personal information and I will add you to our official rosters.
We currently have 10 members around the Province, and our objective is to unite and inform Teardrop enthusiasts via a TJ Chapter.
There are no meetings, dues, or obligations! :)
As I have taken it upon myself to get this Chapter Officially formed with the blessings of Todd (Founder of the Tear Jerkers) and have accepted the roll of "Chapter Director", I am attempting to recruit new memebers and gather input from our members via an informal e-mailed newsletter.
e-mail seems to our official method of communication.
We look forward to hearing from you! :thumbsup:

Hey Al, welcome.
I'm building too (and it's not actually a TD - shhhh....).

If you're thinking of building, check out the 'Foamies' section : the builds are going together with all ranges of experience using a material that's lightweight, easy to shape, and doesn't rot.

We may need to unite!
Maybe a BC Gathering??
Lets hear from you guys!


Hi Brian and Sandi:

I am wondering how much one of those body rotisseries cost and where I might get one? Can you suggest any links and or technical info on such aminals? :R

Vicky and I are heading south to the Dam gathering but after that we are game and itchin for as much camping this summer as possible. . . I just joined the tear jerkers site.

Looking forward to see rig in person soon.

Hi Martin & Vicky
That sounds great as the Dam Gathering will be our first outing too! :thumbsup: And we also hope to be traveling most of the summer with Miss Piggy!
Please Pm or e-mail me so that I can get you on our official list of TJ Chapter members.
The Rotisserie that I have was built by a friend a number of years ago. Most that I know of are homebuilt.
Mine is industrial sized and I have turned a 1945 14 passenger school bus on it.
I use it daily for my business.
Look forward to hearing from you soon.
Thanks
Brian & Sandi

Hey Brian I might have to give you a different address as I might be moving here but it is still in BC :? too much crazy stuff happening as of late
There is a world, just beyond now,
where reality runs a razor thin seam between fact and possibility;

Anywhere I roam where I lay my head is home....

Weather has been great here! 8) Really making me think we might camp somewhere before May, as a shake down! :thinking:
Only have to install the headliner and door panels and do a couple minor things.
Also need to finish a couple accessories I am building.
Wash the dust off it and away we go!

Membership count. :?
I have been reporting the numbers as our chapter has been growing....but maybe not in a way that I should?? :oops:
As new members contact me I record their information and count them as "one" for each e-mail address.
But it just dawned on me that most of us are registering as couples, and if we were all to sit down at a campfire, there would now be
19 of us! :thumbsup:
