Why doesn't the concourse team use something like this at the next SAAC?

Wouldn't it make life so much easier for you guys?  I'm sure if it was a financial reason it isn't used, charging a few extra dollars per car would fix that.

This was just discussed...

They would need more than one and...
Who is going to store it...and haul it around the country to each convention
(it would be cost prohibitive to ship)

Good idea in concept, just difficult to execute.

It might be possible to approach Bendpak to donate a lift or two delivered to the next SAAC convention. Good advertisement for Bendpak and the lifts could be auctioned off or sold at the end of the event.

Great idea Steven.  Does anyone know any of the execs at Benpak?

What some clubs have done is purchase and assemble lifts on site then sell them at a discount to a member after the show so the new owner can disassemble and pack off their "new" , slightly used lift and the organization doesn't ahve to worry about long term ownership, transportation and storage between shows

Works for some.
