Hi Guys:

This is Lee.  Yes, I still exist.  I'll be down Friday night.

If we decide to be open on Friday, I could be available for that date for the Military Convention.  Or Saturday, if not Friday.



Lee

I did speak with the fairgrounds and they said the event is pretty large and will be close to our building. If we plan to be open I will contact the organizers and let them know about our exhibit.

The military vehicle dates are Aug. 11-13. Aug 13 is a Saturday, so that's the day we should plan to be open. If we have enough members available we can consider Friday.

This will be one of the largest gatherings of privately owned, 
ex-military vehicles in North America. See military bicycles, scooters, 
motorcycles, jeeps, small and large trucks, armored personnel carriers, 
tanks, deactivated artillery, boats, and probably helicopters - any era 
and nation of origin. We expect between 200 and 300 vehicles in three 
categories: Judged, Display Only, and For Sale. Celebrate the 75th 
Anniversary of the Jeep! Meet experts who can answer questions about 
vehicles and veterans who can describe what it was like to drive or ride 
in them. There will be a large vendor show featuring vehicle parts, 
tires, paint, uniforms, field equipment, medals, insignia, radios, and 
other military collectibles and artifacts. Several seminars are planned 
to include US Navy Patrol Boat River, Carter jeep carburetors, and 1940s 
hair and makeup styling. Special displays will include Military Dodges, 
Internationals, Halftracks, and WWII British Desert Special Forces.



MVPA members normally pre-register military vehicles for display but it 
is possible for MVPA members OR their guests to register and display a 
vehicle the morning of the show. There is NO CHARGE for Display Only 
vehicles. Only MVPA members may enter a vehicle for judging.



A vendor does not have to be a MVPA member. See the website in February 
2016 for vendor, registration, and membership information.



Commercial marketers interested in our demographics may sponsor this 
event. Contact Marketing Committee Chairman John Neuenburg at 
415-847-2801 or in_garage at hotmail.com for more information.



The Military Vehicle Preservation Association is a non-profit Missouri 
corporation that organizes regional clubs of members dedicated to the 
acquisition, restoration, preservation, safe operation, public 
education, and display of historic military transport. Certain 
activities during this show are for MVPA members only, such as offsite 
excursions, dinners, and meetings. All interested persons are welcome to 
join the MVPA - vehicle owner or not. See www.MVPA.org for convention 
details and updates starting in February 2016.



The hosting organization is the Military Vehicle Collectors of 
California, a non-profit California corporation. This is the largest 
regional historic military vehicle club in North America and one of the 
oldest. MVCC info can be found at www.MVCCNews.net.
