An all you can eat catfish dinner was waiting for us back at the hotel finish point and we continued the “tailgate party” by giving away door prizes for correct answers to some British slang questions.

In 1991, the membership de- cided to include other British car fans as associates due to lack of other clubs in our area that represent some of the other marques. As owners and lovers of our unique types of cars, we have a special kinship, which draws us together. Membership is open to anyone who is a British car enthusiast, with or without a car. Annual dues are just $15.00 per family group or address per Officers year. See the membership form on the back page. We have President dinner meetings on the 2nd Tuesday of each month and at least one other event each month. We encourage you to join and Bob Skewis support us, even if you don’t drive your car regularly. We also 892.4068 offer technical assistance if needed. One goal of the club is to [email protected] help its members keep their cars on the road.
