January 2024 - Overcoming Challenges
Looking back and reflecting on the year 2023, it became apparent to me that you may never know what life has in store for you. It was a year full of challenges, hardships, and growth in uncomfortable areas of my life along with LMS. Going into the year 2024, the vision for the brand has changed for the better and I am very excited to see the growth with the changes that are coming.
LMS has an updated event list for the 2024 show season which is jam-packed with some really sweet events. If you are planning to attend any of the listed events either as a spectator or an event entry, please don't hesitate to reach out and inquire about having your ride be a booth car for the LMS booth! Also, if you have any events that YOU would like to see LMS at, feel free to leave a comment on the blog post to let me know!
To start off 2024, the LMS Media Team Applications will be opening up again from February 1st-15th! If you have been honing your skills or have been wanting to join the media team, now is the perfect time to polish up your portfolio! There will be an official announcement on the LMS homepage banner, as well as the Facebook & Instagram pages! If you are interested in applying, feel free to do so here!
I am very excited for show season and warmer weather to make its way to the PNW. As most of us know, these events are a way for individuals to connect with friends that you may have never met in person before, or getting to see those iconic builds you see all over the internet and so many more great things. As of right now, LMS is planning to kick off the season at the Track Shark Season Opener in the Boise, ID area!
Spring time will be here before we know it, which means the LMS Cruises will be too! Dates are still being determined, and I will be coordinating with Casey (@Caseys_wrx) to get events planned for the Moscow/Pullman community. I am also going to try planning a rally style cruise that spans from Boise, ID all the way up to Lewiston, ID hitting all of the crazy fun grades such as Whitebird & the Old Spiral Highway! (roughly about 5-6 hours 1 way - this is still TBD and in the early stages of planning)
The biggest vendor event of the year that I am anticipating is StanceWars Seattle; LMS will be making it's way up to the rainy city to showcase our unique products, vibes, and community. I encourage everyone who is local to the WA state area to make it out to this event, it truly is like nothing else out there!
I don't want to put to much juicy information all into this one blog post, so expect to see posts regularly with updates for the brand, community, and vision. <3
Lastly, I just want to take a moment to thank EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU, YES YOU WHO IS READING THIS. Without your following, support, and unconditional love, LMS wouldn't be what it is today. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. This brand and community has been my passion project for many years, this year I am going to push myself and the brand to new limits and I would love to have you all along for the ride.
