Respect the location. Every location we visit is a privilege, not a guarantee. Public access does not automatically mean permission for organized events. When appropriate, organizers should coordinate with property owners, local businesses, municipalities, or law enforcement to help ensure events are welcomed and successful. We encourage every member to help preserve the future of Wisconsin's automotive community by: Respecting businesses, employees, and customers. Following all posted rules and local laws. Keeping entrances, exits, fire lanes, and traffic flowing freely. Controlling unnecessary noise, excessive revving, burnouts, and reckless behavior. Cleaning up after ourselves and leaving every location better than we found it. Treating fellow enthusiasts, local residents, and law enforcement with courtesy and respect. Our goal isn't just to host great meets—it's to build lasting relationships with the communities that welcome us. Every respectful event helps create more opportunities for future gatherings and strengthens the reputation of Wisconsin's automotive community.
