Twenty-nine years ago, a hearty band of British car enthusiasts got
together over picnics at a park to view each other's cars and enjoy
each other's friendship. This year, we return to that heritage.
Over the past 29 years this event has grown considerably and now
attracts participants from all over California and beyond. We are
proud that this event has evolved into one of the premier British
car shows in California. Over the last few years, the event has
incurred considerable additional expense including forming a legal
corporation and increased insurance coverage.
Thus, we have made some changes in keeping with the original spirit
of the event. For instance, there will be no vendors, program or
raffle at this year's show. It should be noted that this has returned
to a picnic event. REMEMBER, bring a picnic lunch and beverage of
choice as there will be NO FOOD vendors and there is NO RESTAURANT
close by.
We will continue to provide a wonderful experience, the very popular
Cameron Highlander Bagpipers and over 400 diverse English cars for
your viewing pleasure. Have a Great Day!!
This is an "owners' car show." You will see everyday drivers, concours
quality cars, and "beaters!" Please plan to drive your British car!
