The SCMC has cancelled the Ciener-Woods car show but we are still having a show in Winston-Salem, NC at Parkway Ford on Peter's Creek Road on June 28, 2003

Here are the details:

Date: June 28, 2003
Time: 9:00 am to 4:00 pm
Place: Parkway Ford of Winston Salem, NC
Type of Show: SVT, Mustang, and Ford show
Food: Free lunch!
Cost: $10.00 for preregistration or $15.00 the day of the show. Special discount to SCMC members - see club PMB box for details.

Registration forms going up this week! For more information contact Bob Cox at wcoxsr@carolina.rr.com

Anyone who attends will get a Ford 100th Anniversary medallion. You don't have to wait till the Centennial show to get one because Parkway is supplying the first 100 people with a free medallion.

Spread the word as we use this event to gain participants for the "Big Event". ;)

i should be there:D

Help me keep this at the top, http://www.corral.net/forums/showthread.php?threadid=301649

[cobra9793]

You can count me in for this short drive.:D

[Black Snake]

June 28? So are we trying to set a standard for shortest notification for a car show or something? :p

John, do you need any help? It's kind of late to mail out flyers. I've got the date locked in and I'm willing to lend a hand. Let me know.

[johnbasf]

I'm not sure what's up. Maybe Bobby Cox will chime in here.

[cobrabitn]

Originally we were set up for a "cruise in" at Earl Tindol Ford but Parkway being a new dealer coming in with the SCMC wanted to do a mini-show before the Centennial event. Earl Tindol Ford agreed to have theirs in late September after the Centennial.

There are some financial reasons for doing this, positive not negative, so we are going ahead with a four week plan and hopefully next year we can schedule it much more in advance. Remember, Parkway is just now getting on line with us and they wanted something to happen as soon as possible. I think we can get some cars there as well as have a good turnout. Our reputation is starting to spread about our shows. Basically, for $10.00 you are buying your lunch and the show is free or the other way around. Now, if you want to help, you can go get some raffle prizes for the show and that will help out a lot! Contact local vendors or vendors you use to buy parts from and ask them for a goodie prize. That would be a great help to us. Oh yeah, spread the word so we can have a good turn out.

Thanks,

[Black Snake]

:eek: Well I knew June 28 sounded familiar, it’s my 6th year wedding anniversary. So unless I want to make this one my last, you can count me out. Sorry.

[johnbasf]

Bring her along and the CLUB will treat you two to dinner, right Tony

[flynfink]

Yeah, I'm sure Janine would love that right Rob???

[redsnake99]

I'd love to do the show in Winston, but I already have a commitment for that weekend. Bummer!

:(

[Flagman]

I should be able to make it. Will there be a truck class? Might be able to get some of the Lightning guys to show.

[cobrabitn]

Yes Rich,

Tell the Lightning guys there will be a specific class just for f150s and Lightnings. Can you help out like you did last year?

Thanks!:thumbsup:

[Flagman]

Sure thing! I'll put a notice up tonite on the L owners forum.

Clueless!!!???? Well, I figured you had all of my info already. Amazed you got it already, I mailed it yesterday and it had to go all of 30 miles, usually takes several weeks right....

And what do mean this time ???:doubt: :doubt: :doubt: I don't remember you washing my car..:D :D Does that mean you'll wash it for me another time...????

You been hitting the wine already?? Darn teachers on summer break..:D

[Flagman]

Anyone else planning to attend the Gate City Mustang Show in Burlington this Saturday? I'll be there with the Cobra Jet providing it's not raining in the morning. I can bring about 100 Parkway flyers but if anyone else can bring some I won't need to get as many printed.

[johnbasf]

I have to work. :(

[Black Snake]

I'm still asking the wife. I'm putting up with having her sister here for two weeks so maybe she'll let me go. If I end up getting divorced it's all your fault. :D

I'd convince her to bring the truck but then I'd have two vehicles to clean. :nope:

[cobra9793]

Not trying to jinx the show but what if it rains still going to have ?
From what it show on weather .com it's supposed to all day. Hope it don't but just wanted to now the plan if it does.



See everyone there.

[johnbasf]

The local weather looks pretty good.

[cobra9793]

I hope so from what these weather people say some times it'll probably be sunny and 90 tomorrow instead of rain and 80. Just wanted to see because i'm looking forward to seeing everyone again and don't want it to be spoiled by some rain. I had been watching the weather all this week and for how all the changes they made had me alittle concerned but i'll be there either way.







Take care:D

[03DOHCobra]

Watch your speed on I-40 & Business 40, especially in the work zones. I was through there today and the Highway Patrol was out in full force.

[johnbasf]

This is rain or shine.

[cobrabitn]

What John said. This is the time of year when we get thunderbumpers. It's a fact of life.:rolleyes:

Life is too short to be scared away from T-storms when you are with friends.;)

try not to think rain but maybe a free lunch with some great company, okay?:thumbsup:

[johnbasf]

Went to Parkway today. Trophies look great. Medallions are nice. David Brown has his SVT and Harley lineup ready to go. We need some help early, @ 8:00 AM.

[cobrabitn]

I'll be there late as I have to work but Jeff, Lisa, Ed, and Bobby should be there early. I'll see you after I get off from work, go home and shower, and finish cleaning the car. Probably around 10:00 or 10:30 am.

Later....:cool:

[Flagman]

I'm going to try to be there around 8:00 to help out (that is, if I don't get lost ;) ).

[cobra9793]

I should be there around 8:30 or so to help if needed.

[98banana]

A Banana Motorsports representative will be there bright and early to help out, John. Well, that is if the Banana Clock can get the representative up at 4:30! :eek:

[jschwarz]

I have some pics from the event...

I'm new to SCMC, and this was my first event of this club that I've been to. I drove from Raleigh, and it was well worth it (even with the rain).

Met some great people, and saw some amazing cars.

Let me know if this should be posted elsewhere.

Pics here (http://jschwarz.com/pictures/cars/parkwayford/)

[cobrabitn]

jschwarz,

I'm glad you enjoyed the show. I was really amazed at the number of people in attendance on a cloudy, misty day but by afternoon, everything was in full swing. I can't thank all of the people that helped out enough for helping it to be a successful event! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I thought the Ciener-Woods show was really good....... this one really topped it! Hands down!

:thumbsup: :bounce:

[34Ford]

Well I will have to say I really enjoyed the show Tony and Parkway Ford put on saturday.:thumbsup:

Was worried it would be a wet day cause the drive from Black Mtn was terrible.

But the day at the show was cloudy, and Im actually glad it was. It would have been miserably HOT. I still got my face sunburned though.:cool:

Got to meet a lot of nice people. There was only the two of us that had 03 Mach 1's but it nice to exchange stories with the guys.

Thanks again Tony. Maybe next year will be even bigger.:bounce:
