All Ford Show & Swap

June 6th is approaching quickly! It's time to start prepping your cars for the annual June Show at Apple Valley Ford.

Apple Valley Ford
7200 W. 150th Street

No other single event brings as much exposure and recognition to our club. Last year was a terriffic success and this year we are once again expanding our efforts to bring our show to life. This show is a direct reflection of our members' collaborative efforts and the end results are apparent.

Note to new or inactive members looking to get into the groove. This is an excellent opportunity to experience what makes this club click as well as meet the members. If you would like to participate, please let us know.

You can find all the details in our show flyer. This can also be printed and used as your preregistration form. The preregistration deadline is May 29th.

Top 21 Show at Shakoppee Ford

Date and Details TBD

The slightly smaller one! This show has a much more relaxed atmosphere than the June show while maintaining the same level of participation from our dedicated members and the show participants.

Non-Show Events

Dates and Details TBD

We are trying something new this year to try and get some new ideas and additional participation. We are looking for "Hosts" for each of the events. If you have an idea for a fun event or destinations, we simply ask that you volunteer as the Host/Hostess. You provide the idea and set up some of the details and the Non-Show Events committee will help you get it publicized and executed.

For example, there may be a unique drive-in that you think the group might like. Just pick a start point, date/time and if you have a scenic route that you could lead the group on to the final destination. That's it. Ideas like a Sunday Brunch; scenic fall drive root beer run; drive to Wheels and Wings in Osceola; drive to Stockholm for some go carting. Getting out with the cars and the group is always fun.

Here are the folks that have signed up for some events and those that we are still looking for hosts. If you would like to host an event, please let Pam or Steve Flaten at sjflaten@comcast.net or Mike Boulka at mboulka@tkproduct.com know and we will help you with the details. The months listed as OPEN are those that need a host.
