Organizing Local Powerlifting Meet

A few friends and I all train at different gyms and through our trash talking we’ve decided to hold a gym based power-lifting competition. It will basically be 4 gyms invited, and the event will be an Open as well so anyone who wants to show up and lift is welcome to join the fun, but its mostly a “my gym bro’s are stronger than your gym bro’s blah blah blah” a pissing contest.

We plan on doing $30 entry fee, winners get cash and supplement prizes, 2 weight classes 200 above and below, who ever has highest accumulative RAW SQ,BP,and DL wins, free t-shirt for all competitors all that fun stuff.

My question: Got any great ideas on how to draw in a lot of competitors, we’ve got a local GNC to sponsor (the supp prizes) but we want more sponsors just don’t know who to ask, any input would be helpful. As power-lifters would you find this interesting to go to?

what part of Cali ? I am south of Reno so if it is NorCal it sounds kind of cool !

Central California, in between Fresno and Bakersfield sorry.

as long as it is NOT OILDALE, ha ha hah. Is there not a gym real one in one of those citys that does not already hold a once or twice yearly powerlifting meet ?? ? I thought a buddy of mine had travelled to one of those for a meet last oct. Maybe I am mistaken ?
