2024 MEETINGS

Next Meeting – August 24th – Note: This will be a Saturday Meeting!
#August 24th, Saturday, General Meeting – Hosted by Scott Bean.  A visit to the Dauer Museum of Classic Cars in Sunrise, FL is planned.  This will be a Saturday event, as the museum is not open on Sundays. The Dauer has an incredible collection of beautifully restored vehicles from the 30’s through the 70’s, with an emphasis on 50’s, 60’s and 70’s GM products.  We will have a self-guided tour at cost of $20 per person.  We’ll meet at the Cracker Barrel, 7461 SW Lost River Rd., at 8AM, departing at 8:30AM for the Dauer Museum, at 10801 NW 50th Street, in Sunrise. Our caravan will take about 2 hours via the more leisurely westerly route to arrive for our 11AM tour.  Lunch and General Meeting will follow at a restaurant TBD.
