DON'T FRET - WE'LL STILL BE PUTTING ON THE SAME EVENT AT A NEW LOCATION! The park is going to be reconstructed into an emergency reservoir for Palo Alto and rebuilt using astroturf on the fields. No more car shows as oil and gas will damage the new surface. While this year will be our last at El Camino Park, we are still planning to provide the same show that you all have come to expect - British cars & trucks, arcane cars (international), lawn setting, jazz, proper British breakfasts and lunches and prizes in a bunch of classes. Come join us for the last waltz at El Camino Park on September 8th & 9th, 2007 We are already looking for a new venue for 2008 and we will keep you posted in The British Car Network. We would like to thank all of you, especially the marque clubs, for 30 years of enthusiastic support and all of the fun and good cheer that you have brought to these meets and our hobby ingeneral. Long live the British car and the people who cherish them ......... Best, Rick Feibusch, British Car Network Palo Alto British Car Meet Coordinator _______________________________________________ Morgans mailing list Morgans@autox.team.net http://autox.team.net/mailman/listinfo/morgans From morgans-bounces+mharc=autox.team.net@autox.team.net Sun Aug 12 17:27:17 2007 From: "John T.
