I need a catchy title for a "cruise in" I am organizing, any ideas?
 
We have a thread going on the NC page about an event that is coming together during the Good Guys weekend in Charlotte (Oct 28-30), but I thought I would post on here to get some feedback.

I have been organizing a Cruise In / Drive In Movie event in Mooresville, during the Good Guys weekend. You can read about the event on the link provided below.

Not only would I like to invite everyone down, I need a catchy name. Something for marketing and t-shirts that conveys the uniqueness of this event.

Most people haven't been to a drive in movie in over 20 years... we are bringing one back for a one time event.

Read more here...

The only thing I've been able to come up with so far is "Flashback to the 50's"
and I guess you can call that the 'working title'. You can see the event page on my website here I have put some info on there as well as a temporary logo.

But, there has to be someone on here who is more creative than me. Give me some thoughts.

haha, Motors and movies made me think of "Hot Rods and Reels" ... although, with technology today, there ain't no reels. :)

Hey, by the way... I finally got ahold of Hailey at Duke today via email. She said they cant help us out ... BUT! (maybe I should quote her on this one)
"Unfortunately, I can’t secure any funds for a sponsorship of your event. However, if this is an event that requires volunteers and manual labor, your Duke contact might be able to secure a company grant for your organization. It is certainly worth looking into. Every Duke Energy employee has the opportunity to apply for grants for projects. The grant money is dependent on the project, which must have “sweat equity” – meaning there needs to be something physical the employee/s can do for the project too. Try reaching out to your Duke contact (you can even ask him to call me and I can advise him on how to apply for grants). Typically, the grants are for projects like serving people at a soup kitchen or building shelves, but I know they have gone to help support events as well, like the Special Olympics."

Are ya busy Saturday, October 29th? :devil: Do ya wanna help out :D Maybe earn some "sweat equity"? You're my only Duke contact!

I would love to...but I have a outage at Oconee and our son is in bootcamp in Fort Leonard Wood, Missouri and will gradute sometime in October. I have already been told they will let me off for that so I doubt I could get another weekend off. I will see closer to the time how things look though!
How about "Cruisen to a Movie"

"Flashback to the 50s" makes it sound like only 50s cars are welcome...but with that said, I don't have a better suggestion...

What movie is showing? Without knowing that I'll offer "Flashback Theater","Mooresville Drive-in Classic",or maybe the best and most simple,"Cruise-in Movie". Maybe "Mooresville Cruise-in Movie". If it turns into anything big the town would sure appreciate the props.

The movie is yet to be determined. Maybe I should be asking for feedback on that too. It's a family event, but I also want a movie that will keep the audience of older car guys around. Perhaps something nostalgic, but kid (ages 8-12) oriented too.

The name is turning out to be a tough one. I want something that sounds unique.
Only other thing that has crossed my mind is ...
Maybe a fall or Halloween theme, since it is a few days before Halloween

HalloWheels and Reels
Harvest Moon Drive In & Car Show

or maybe just:
Wheels and Reels
Hot Rods and Reels (sounds a little fishy though)

Personally, I'd show CARS. Kids love it and as an adult, I love it. Maybe a modern day cool car movie like the Gone in 60 seconds remake. If you want to piss off a lot of the older car guys in the crowd show The Fast and the Furious :lol:

And maybe a double feature; "Cars" as the early show, and something like "Bullitt" for the late show.
