At our monthly British car club meeting yesterday I found out we have 12 Sunbeams registered for the show on April 4th so far!
That is more than any other class of British car at this show.
I also invited local club members to bring parts and join us for the swap meet on Friday at the host hotel and for the welcome reception that evening.
Come join us for a great weekend and lots of fun! Eric

Eric,
Is the festival still scheduled or has it been cancelled? My reason for asking is that any event here in Ohio that may have more than 100 people in attendance has been banned for a period of time due to virus concerns.

Bob I was going but due to virus concerns Patty and I cancelled. Loudoun county has closed the schools so we have two young grandchildren to entertain.

Gordon,
Ohio closed all schools for three weeks and there are extended spring breaks for colleges. Then colleges will go to online classes for awhile.

I wrote the organizer of Tartan Day South...this is the reply.

Hi Mary, as of today we are still on. We will be meeting with our municipalities on Tuesday and have a statement on Wednesday. Of course we are following the situation as closely as we can. And to be honest this decision will probably be out of arguments. Keep following us on our website and our Facebook page

I heard from one of the organizers and they are meeting Tuesday to discuss. However I searched events in SC and so MANY are cancelled or postponed. I wager it is not happening.

NC all public schools are closed,more than 100 people in attendance has been banned for a period of time, and most churches are closed.

There's an app for almost everything for smart phones. Maybe find or make an app for online car shows. just kidding (kind of).

That would actually be a pretty cool idea, until we return to normalcy.

I’ll add my two cents...

Car owners could do a simple, cellphone, ‘walk around’ video of their car, describing facts and details about their car. Car clubs, charitable organizations, etc could announce a date and time that they would make a “car show” post on their site or chosen social media platform. At the designated time, car owners could just upload their video to the site.

If it’s a charity, maybe there could be a small charge, $5 or ‘donations accepted’ type thing, and the organizations could even do virtual awards...or maybe just a people’s choice.

I think it could be very intricate if desired but could also be as simple as commenting on a FB post with your video (for those on FB). I know this group has a FB page but I’m not making this suggestion to start a debate on the pros and cons of FB. I know that groups have been virtual 5ks for a few years as fundraisers...
