SPRITE JUBILEE 2008
Plans are well underway for what is likely to be the
biggest-ever gathering of Sprites, at least since they
went out of production in 1970. The event is the
Sprite Jubilee to celebrate the 50th anniversary of
the Austin-Healey Sprite cars, and it will be held in central
Pennsylvania, near the city of Hershey, May 17-20,
2008.
This event follows the tradition started almost 20
years ago now, when in 1988 we celebrated the Sprites
30th anniversary with Sprite Fest, followed by
Sprite Bash in 1993, Sprite Rush in 1998, and
Sprite Spree in 2003.
According to the Global Austin-Healey Sprite Registry,
of which I am Registrar, this location is within a
short driving distance for literally hundreds and
hundreds of Spridgets.
Additionally, owners of ALL English cars are invited
to Sprite Jubilee 2008. Special recognition and
awards for all British cars participating will be made
during the meet.
The dates of the event run concurrently with the
Carlisle Import-Kit/Replicar Nationals, which will be
held from Friday May 16th through Sunday May 18th, in
nearby Carlisle, Pennsylvania.
Featured guests for Sprite Jubilee 2008 are John and
Caryl Sprinzel, Gerry and Marian Coker, and Daniel and
Isabelle Stapleton.
