We could schedule on last meet up / ride / photo shoot for some of the key shots
Fill in the rest with shots supplied by members to far to come.
I bet some SS dealers would join in might be worth something to them to have their dealership name / sign in the background - could offset cost
I am going to reach out to a member who may know someone else that could help.
2017 Slingshot Calendar

I would definitely buy one also.

I'm down for one...... Love seeing the family on my wall...

I don't mind assisting in this project, as long as you all liked the last ones.
We would have to agree on what pictures/people get each month and I would need good hi-res photos for editing.
I would try to get a printer to help with the printing and possible distribution. It's very time consuming, as you can imagine.
Maybe @Uglyrider954 could help with the printing and someone else could tackle distribution with me.
I own a print shop here in Boston and my close to direct pricing is as follows:
11" X 8.5" - 24 Page Saddle Stitch Calendar On 100LB GLOSS BOOK with AQ on both sides + 1/4" HOLE PUNCH
1000 calendars = $1650 (not including delivery) -
What happens to the price when you cut the quantity down to 250 and 500. Just curious.
-
everyone needs to get together on events and have them on the calender. Also the back could be the logo of vendors.

100 Would be $750 as the job is run on an offset press and not digitally. We soar in the larger quantity numbers. Difference between 500 and 1000 is only about $100 as well.

@rabtech, you worried we wouldn't be able to sell 1000? Take 'em to events, sell 'em and put profit towards one of the charities we talk about on this forum - bet we'd be out of calendars in the first quarter of the year.
We could have a few of our more prolific members take 100 or so each to some of the bigger events to help sell and get the word out about the forum. With our logo on it, vendors with logos and ads interspersed throughout, and killer Slings all through it, they'd sell like crazy.

I'll take two, I'd like to see members with their slings in the pics. Heck, I might enter and be in uniform. Plus, keep it close to events,... like SSITS,.. May or June,...SSTIA,... Sept.. Dec. could be a photo with Santa or with snow.

Definitely want a couple pictures per month, get more great Slings in there. Maybe a centerfold page, and we definitely need to decide on the right cover
girl...I mean....Sling...Wait, I'm confused, what's the subject of this calendar again?

So are we doing this, or what?

I am in for 3 or 4

Put me down for atleast 3

Ok guys and gals, I can't make it through 2017 without another Slingshot calendar... what are we gonna do about it??
Also, I don't want one of a bunch of random Slings, I want one that features the Slings of my Brothers and Sisters from the forum. To me that is part of the cool factor, to look up at my calendar and be like I know that Sling, it belongs to @WOLF or @V-SHOT or whoever! What are you your thought? Is there a demand for a 2017 Calendar??
I'm not a graphic designer, but I can assist with the pre-press using Photoshop and InDesign.

Someone needs to do it. I just don't have time to help with the first part of the calendar project...
But if y'all want to ship me some of the finished product I will put them in the forum store and all I want to cover is the actual cost of the product and shipping. I will gladly mail them out to people that place an order.
