You all know how great last year was - 250 Vintage BMWs on the lawn and the rain stayed away - and we're doing it all again, same place, same time, same food (Barbi's Q),and there will be NO portable toilet nonsense this year.

Since we happily made it up north to the Bay Area Show & Swap in May, we KNOW all you NoCal folks are heading south to be part of the fun!!

One change however is that due to the City of LA Parks and Recreation and their fabulous regulations, we no longer can have swap space as a part of our Meet - the City charges us $100 for every 'space' that involves goods for cash. However, we encourage anyone with parts and stuff to swap and sell to park in the Woodley Parking lot at the far north end and set up your wares there. We would appreciate you contributing the usual $20 fee as a 'donation' - we are after all providing your customers - but you will officially not be part of our event. We love following the rules - jeez!

Please register as soon as you can so we can plan everything accordingly - it really helps us to have as accurate a count as we can at the earliest juncture. We have a GREAT surprise for all our drivers in this year's goodie bag!

OTHER UPCOMING EVENTS

We are organizing a Caravan and Overnight Camp Trip to The VARA Oktoberfest Races at Buttonwillow the Weekend of September 10-11 - should be plenty of Vintage BMWs roaring around Buttonwillow that weekend. We need to get an accurate head count as soon as we can so we can make arrangements. This would be a very fun trip, and for a small fee - $20 we believe, you can have lunch, corral parking and a parade lap on the track during the racing lunch break (we'll confirm details). This should be a fun getaway for those who can make it, and we'll have a caravan through the grapevine to get there - and anyone from elsewhere (north, east, etc) are welcome to meet us there. Please RSVP as soon as possible so we can make this happen in the best manner possible

Angeles Crest Run and/or Castaic Run planned for Aug/Sept. - Stay Tuned.

Thanks!

John & Jeff

Update!

After some discussion, we have decided that anyone wanting to have a Swap Space at the 2011 SoCal Vintage BMW Meet in October WILL BE ABLE TO DO SO!

We feel there would be more problems with City Parks if there were sales activity in the parking lot, so we want those that want to sell parts and such have an option on the Meet grounds. HOWEVER, since we will be charged $100 for each space selling goods, that cost will be passed on, so the cost will be $120 - $20 for vehicle registration and $100 that we're collecting for the City.

Sorry for any confusion, but we like this option better, and Meet participants can peruse parts on the grounds.

Thanks!
John & Jeff
