Today I have more good news from the Reformatory. They have set our discount pricing for our own private tours at $5.00 a person. I've provided them with several photos and our club logos for their promotion of this show on their website and Facebook page. They have selected the angle shot photo of Tom's 1960 Eureka for a backdrop of their online flyer and i'll be coordinating this with them, so when a printable version is set up we'll be able to print some off for handouts.
Mike... at this point this is a "Sunday only" one day event. If someone else wants to step up and plan a Saturday function i'm all for it. Working for a Honda supplier we are so slammed this year with production demands my only day off is Sundays, and the Reformatory approached Darren about a Sunday show so that's what we focused on. I will try my best to have this weekend off to be a part of whatever we may plan later for Saturday.
Yes, we will be the only cars there. I have welcomed local car clubs to attend and see our cars as well as local media (already in the works) so there may be some hotrods, originals, and customs show up but they will be coming in to see our rides. I think opening it up to a general "classic car show" with us being the feature would take away the focus somewhat of the PCS and our passion for our cars.
In downtown Mansfield there is a huge indoor carousel, open to the public. Nearby in Marion there is the Warren G. Harding (former US President) home and Memorial (he and his wife are buried there, one of the few not in DC) and many other local attractions.
I will be setting up a table at the show for all of you to go through Jim Tighe's photo collection. When Jim passed Sharon gave me all of his procar photos... there are thousands from many years ago for your enjoyment.
More news posted ASAP as things develop! Mark your calendars now and plan to attend. Old buildings like this spark our curiousity anyway... this is your chance to gather with friends and experience this place for yourselves, inside & out!
