The following letter has been sent out to the Morgan Clubs and hopefully will
have already reached you. However there is confusion about 2 Morgan Over
America Trips and hopefully this will explain it a bit more.
If you are interested in possibly joining the trip, please contact
trikenut@aol.com and we will send you an itinerary. We are working on our web
site morgansoveramerica.org but it isn't quite ready.

RE: Clarification about Morgans Over America
Dear Fellow Morgan Enthusiasts,
There are two Morgan Over America III trips in the year 2000. One trip is being
organized by Morgan Sports Car Club of Northern California members Steve Roake,
Elaine Fisher and Kathy Tollworthy. The other trip is being organized by Morgan
Sports Car Club, Ltd. England members Richard and Anita Jordan.
As in the previous two Morgans Over America, 1990 and 1995, Steve Roake and
Keith Cox planned a route. Originally, only one Morgans Over America (MOA) III
was anticipated. Effective communications between the Jordans and the MSCC of
Northern California organizers never developed. Our planning had to proceed
without the Jordan group participation.
The trip that MSCC of Northern California members have organized is the Keith
Cox Memorial Morgans Over America III- New Orleans to Nova Scotia. It starts
in New Orleans on September 7, 2000 proceeds north to Quebec and Nova Scotia,
and ends at Hershey, Pennsylvania on October 8, 2000.
Complete trip reservations have been made for 30 cars and nearly all slots are
filled. Confirmed participants are from England, Jersey, British Columbia,
Ontario, Texas, Washington, Idaho, and California. Please contact us
immediately to reserve one of the few remaining slots, if you are interested in
joining us.
In 1996, at the MOA II reunion in England, Keith Cox and Steve Roake presented
the dream for MOA III of New Orleans to Nova Scotia. Keith Cox’s vision, based
on previous experiences, was to travel the Morgan friendly, scenic back roads
and stay away from metropolitan areas. The four week trip would have daily
mileage and destinations which would allow individuals time to explore the
historic sites and natural beauty from the Deep South to Northern Canada’s
Distant Coast. During planning of this trip, last March, Keith Cox passed away.
Steve, Elaine and Kathy have endeavored to keep his vision alive in our
planning. This trip is in Keith’s memory.
For differentiation of the trips, Richard and Anita Jordan’s trip is called
Morgan Over America III- 2000- The Eastern Experience. It begins and ends in
Florida and follows some of the same route a few days later.
The two trips provide Morgan owners along the routes the opportunity to visit
with both groups as they pass through their areas.
