Activity Calendar

Our club is resourceful and our members have other collector vehicles, so we often partner with other clubs for larger events. However, we typically hold monthly breakfast or luncheon meetings and workshops, host a Spring Fling, do a yearly caravan to the national convention, and do tours. Items in BLUE below, are sponsored or co-sponsored by our club; those in GREEN are Other activities that would be of interest to car collector hobbyists in the DC/MD/VA/DE/PA/WV areas.
