Open Car Show in January 2008- FLorida

Hi all,
Would like to invite anyone interested to a open car show to be held in Clearwater, FL on Saturday January 12, 2008, from 10:00 to 3:00. to benefit the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. There will Awards for Best of Show, Engine, Interior, Sound System, Paint, Engineered, and more... There will be food and refreshments provided for entrants and available to the public, along with entertainment, displays, a simulator ride, and other activities going... So if you have a car you want to show or just want to stop by and support the cause, it will be located at the North East corner of US 19 and Ulmerton Road...

Here is a link to a more info... the info page will be updated this week as we have more going on than what is listed on it...

Last year we had 80+ show up, ranging from antiques, street rods, sports, muscle and late models... hoping to have more cars and a couple organized clubs show up... as far as parking goes, if a club organizer PM's me with an approx number of members attending I am sure I can get an area reserved, otherwise it is luck of the draw... again please be reminded this is an open show...

I will bring my rx7 with me. Sounds like a good benefit too, which I would support.

Come on people. Don't allow the rotary crowd in our area to die like this.

All of Pinellas county and Hillsbourgh and the surrounding 5 counties.

Bring your rotary powered vehicles!!!

We will do a road trip. I know of a great place to open an Rotary up.

Its free food and drinks, if you enter your car for $5.

It is almost here! Sounds like it will be a really good turn out. I have to go wax my car now and get it ready. I am going to inform my other friends to see if they can make it also.

Thanks for the update!

See you guys there!

Mike

Thanks guys for coming bye, we had a blast putting it on, sorry I only had a chance to say hi at the entrance when you came in, unfortunatley everytime I headed out there someone would need something... but it went great and we raised over 3K for the JDRF... and Mizike, you were not alone, at least in spirit, as my 7 was there (sitting out back with bad paint and dirty rims)... did you get a chance to go watch the funny car over at the hanger?... well hopefully we can get a better turn out at next year's event and will not be in conflict with any local rotary functions...
