The
mission of the National Biker Vendor Association sounds quite simple.
We want to communicate, educate and legislate. If we think about
these goals one at a time we probably wouldn't use the word, simple. Communicate - This must be done with each other and with the various venues we work in. We produce and mail a monthly newsletter that informs members of upcoming shows, keeps everyone abreast of important changes happening on the show circuit, and generally removes a lot of the questions and innuendo from our world. We hold 5 meetings a year;
Daytona Bike Week Laconia Myrtle Beach Sturgis Daytona Biketoberfest Educate - The association wants each and every vendor to be successful as it's not an easy life. It can be very rewarding however, and made easier. We also have to educate the towns and areas we travel to and work in. This is probably the hardest part as they have their own agenda and it's not always in our best interest. Legislate - There are times that all the education in the world won't help and we will have to hire attorneys to help us try and change laws and/or attitudes as they relate to a specific rally, area, or town. |
