I'd like to call to everyone's attention, what promises to be a  fantastic 
and memorable British car event which is coming in 2012 as a part of  the 
annual British Car Week. 
Planning is currently underway for the first ever national gathering of  
British cars and their owners. The inaugural British Car Week National  Meet, 
will be held at Hot Springs National Park, in Hot Springs,  Arkansas from 
Wednesday, May 30 thru Sunday, June 3.  I personally  have already made my 
plans to attend, and I hope to see many of you there in  order to share in the 
fun. 
You are invited to join your fellow British Car owners and British Car 
Clubs  from all over the United States for an assortment of great driving 
tours, 
a best  British car club competition, free concerts, an awards banquet, a 
popular vote  car show, a judged Concours d'Elegance, road rallies, 
self-guided as  well as group driving tours, a British marque golf tournament, 
a 
timed  driving event, tech sessions, guest speakers, a casino night, a group 
photo, and  an array of themed car shows (top 5 of each marque show, daily 
driver  of each marque show, etc.) just to name a few of the  planned 
activities. 
There will also be a variety of individual social activities hosted,  
organized or sponsored by various marque groups, such as, an ice cream  social 
by 
an Austin Healey owners group, a Sprite vs Midget oyster  eating contest, a 
Morgan owners breakfast, an MGA owners lunch, a  concert hosted by a 
classic Mini club, etc. Basically anything  that individuals, marques or clubs 
would like to plan or be associated with  will be considered by the organizers, 
at no cost to the named group, as long as  the activities are safe, legal, 
fun and interesting. The Garland County United  Way is taking on the 
Concours, and the Hot Springs Chamber of Commerce is  putting together a 
digital 
camera scavenger hunt. Event sponsorships and naming  opportunities for 
activities are currently available for car clubs, groups,  companies, 
organizations, parts suppliers, vendors etc.  If you have an  interest in this, 
please 
contact the event chair whose email address is listed  on the web site home 
page. 
For the Concours d'Elegance, the organizers are looking for concours  
quality cars in each marque to compete. If you or someone you know has a high  
quality car that would fit that bill and qualify for a judged concours  
competition, participation in that event is strongly and respectfully  
encouraged. 
   
Again, this promises to be a fantastic all British marque event,  which I 
urge you to consider attending. The event web site has just been  launched 
and can be found at _http://www.britishcarweeknationalmeet.org_ 
(http://www.britishcarweeknationalmeet.org/)    Please take a few minutes to 
peruse the 
web site and see what the organizers  have in store for the British car 
community in 2012.
