NVCC members,

I have been approached about bringing at least 15-20 of our cars and representing our club again at the 19th Annual Haymarket Day on Saturday, 9/16. The event is from 9AM - 4PM and the town of Haymarket would give us a level grassy lot to park our cars to show after we participate in their parade. We are currently in the 6th position in the parade line up. This event draws in roughly 10,000 people every year and would be good publicity for our club. Last year we had a great time!

There are plenty of vendors, food concessions, and live entertainment will be present as well. There is NO charge to participate in this event and they are excited for us to be there!

Please let me know if you can support this event...I will coordinate the caravan out to Haymarket. They need us there at 9AM. I need willing club members to volunteer to participate in this event. Please, let's make a good showing of the NVCC!

Caravan details: Please meet at 8:30 AM in Newgate Plaza, at the corner of Routes 28 and 29 in Centreville. We will have a brief driver's meeting and will be leaving at 8:45 AM SHARP!

Directions to the caravan start point are as follows:

From 66 Westbound, take Exit 53A to Route 28 South and then take the Route 29 South Exit, immediately turning right into the parking lot. There is a Sunoco gas station, Joann's Fabrics, Trader Joe's, and a Fast Eddie's in this plaza. Please be sure to gas up/restroom/coffee/etc before we leave. If you have family radios, please bring them.

Please RSVP to me ASAP so I can get a list started...thanks!

Thanks to the 8 member cars that came out. Great showing at the parade and lots of interest from townspeople when we parked. Handed out some club biz cards and got some good publicity. All in all, not too shabby, despite the odd weather and some kids who were clueless about car show etiquette. [[-X] [:))]
