    Dennis,

    Tom and Betsy Clark's event is first and foremost a fundraiser for animals. IMHO, the "Concours" portion is really a way to raise money for the charity, so bring some money or a check, in addition to some quick detailer spray and a few rags.

    Channel 8 just gave its weather report, chilly start temps up to 51-54. Sunshine to start with high clouds working their way in. possible rain starting after 3. We look good for the show with judging to take place early with the goal of getting the awards handed out ahead of the normal schedule.

    Hope to see you on the greens of the AACA museum!

    Great show and the weather held off. No rain. Some fantastic cars there today. Got home without a drop of rain. Thank you Tom and all who helped to make this a great show. Kevin I still think we could have swapped out your front bonnet with the other red 355 there and he wouldn't have known the difference.

    I had a great time, as did my friend Jim who came (it was his first one). Well organized, and I liked the new parking format this year. We got lucky with NO rain, and what a varied and terrific selection of cars from all marques and eras.

    I almost adopted another cat (but reason got the better of me - 3 is enough!). What a great cause, and looking forward to next year.

    I had a great time today, as did my Mom. Thanks to everyone for making her feel welcome! As an aside, it was pretty funny watching her face when I briefly lit the afterburner on the turnpike.

    All in all, despite the threatening weather, it was a spectacular show for a wonderful cause and I am really proud to have been a part of it.

    Thanks, Joe for coming down. It was great to finally see the TR. It was great to see all the cars come and fill the field.

    This is indeed, a fine event and I too am proud to participate. Tom and his team of volunteers organized an excellent event with spot on logistics and setup.

    Here are a couple of my shots that I've processed so far.

    regards

    I'd just like to thank all of you for making this show such a success. I'd especially like to thank David Schamerhorn (Autowerks.9) for the beautiful trophies that he made for us again this year. Also, many thanks to our distinguished judging panel who again traveled quite a great distance, and volunteered their time in order to make this happen. Our judging panel included notables such as Dave Olimpi, Ken Visser, Ed Warburton and Ralf Berthiez, along with several local judges.

    We also had some fantastic sponsors this year including Algar Ferrari, Harrisburg Fiat, The Law Firm of Ahmad & Zaffarese, Radcliffe Motorcar Company, and Competizione and Sports Cars. Their generosity goes miles in helping with the cause.

    And of course, thanks so much to all who registered their cars for this event. Without the cars, there would be no car show. Thank you for your support.

    As a side note, every puppy and kitten that was taken to the show yesterday, is now spoken for!!! :) :) :)

    I forgot to mention, we had 134 cars on the field.

    Tom-
    This amazing show has really expanded in only it's second year, from 99 cars on the field last April to yesterday's 134. The quality of the entries was impressive. The judges are in agreement that for 2013 we should create additional classes and increase the number of trophies awarded in order that more outstanding entries receive recognition.

    Thanks Tom and Betsy for a fantastic event!

    In addition to helping a great cause, the turnout and quality of cars was amazing. You even pulled some strings with the weather!

    By the way, Stacy had to hold the Ferrari plaque all the way home. Apparently the 355 trunk is smaller than the 360's.
