Event dates & locations are tentative and only as good as the information received. If you have a Cruise-In, Car Show or other event planned and would like to have it posted. Please email madbatten@ec.rr.com and I will try to post it. Ensure that you have contact information included.
UP COMING EVENTS
Here we go again for another year and hopefully we will be able to see as many of you as we can and as always we hope that the hard work that you put out for your events enable you to meet your charitable goals. For some of our charities every little dollar helps and if not for the generous people in our hobby their dreams would not come true.
ATTENTION CRUISERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! look at the bottom of the page and see if you know the answers! Well, either no one read this page or else you just couldn't find the answers. Since no one had all the answers we will try it again later, better luck next time. Roger
