British Field Day will be held at Liberty Park again this year. It is 
time for all British car and motorcycle enthusiasts to get their rigs 
out of the garage, clean them up and get them running as well as can be 
expected. All British cars and bikes in any condition from 100- point 
restorations to works in progress, old daily beater or rigs for sale are 
welcome. The more the merrier! All the British car/bike clubs are 
participating. Don't let those other marques make your club look like 
slackers. Call your fellow club members and get them to the event!

For the brave of heart, we will have the road course set up again this 
year on a closed access road inside the park. It promises to be as noisy 
and challenging as previous years!

During the event there will be, shop talk, bench-racing, catching up 
with old friends, drawings for raffle prizes and more. Liberty Park has 
many amenities. One of the largest and best playgrounds in the city, the 
Tracy Aviary and a small amusement park with a Ferris wheel and 
merry-go-round. Even if your family doesn't share your passion for LBCs 
(little British cars), there will be plenty for them to do while you are 
getting your fix!

Proceeds from this year's event will be donated to Saint Paul's 
Episcopal Church's Community Outreach Fund. Their food pantry, which is 
the only one in the state of Utah to be open on Saturdays, is one of the 
recipients of this fund. Saint Paul's is providing volunteers to assist 
with the event so the organizers can have more time for some fun, too! 
Saint Paul's also going to be providing food within the event this year. 
Get ready for fresh grilled hot dogs, hamburger, sandwiches maybe even 
donuts in the morning.

Liberty Park is located between 500 East & 700 East and 900 South & 1300 
South. The BFD event will be held in the northeast quadrant of the park. 
Enter off 1300 South and drive east and north about a quarter of the way 
around the park. You will see the event on the left.

Please help support Saint Paul's Outreach Fund by bringing your cars and 
bikes out to join in the fun. Registration starts at 8:00 AM and we hope 
to have most bikes and cars in place by 9:00 and we encourage folks 
displaying vehicles to try to stay until 3:00 but if you can only make 
it for a couple of hours - thats fine too! The registration fee is $10 
per bike or car. A $5 donation is requested per adult. Kids 12 and under 
are free.
