Do other dealers do this? Annual owners reunion?

The last weekend in July every year is the annual Wakeboard & Waterski Specialty Tige Owners Reunion and every year it's a blast. Us Colorado Tige owners look forward to two events every year, the Mile High Meet and Greet and the WWS Tige Owners Reunion party because they are both great events put on by great people. Tige sends Tony Fussel, director of sales, up with the next model year's boat and basically hands the keys off to the owners and let's them drive it around as much as they like. Besides a great party with some fun people, there is also a giveaway, trophies for best stereo and for best rig (truck/boat combo). The giveaways include wakeboards, tshirts, life jackets, ropes and handles, Wetsounds WS420, etc. After the general prizes are given away, they do a drawing for the grand prize donated by Tige which is $2,500 to Pimp Your Tige or take that money plus some as a discount off of a new boat. This year I was lucky enough to win the grand prize!!! I am still stoked and planning my new boat purchase for next year.

Our other boat dealer's doing these kind of events? Ours has gotten a little smaller due to some of the private lakes having restrictions on the boats leaving due to zebra/quagga mussels but we still had a decent turnout.
