> Oh Mog had a similarly good event in 1991 at MidOhio race track. Chris
> Lawrence of Le Mans fame and Maurice Owen, the factory development
> engineer were featured guests, along with Denis Simanitis, technical
> editor of Road & Track magazine. We had the largest gathering ever of
> racing Morgans in North America at 39 cars on the track for the all
> Morgan feature race.

> Lately, our meets have been lower key and haven't had many guests from
> other Clubs but such people are always made to feel very welcome. At
> last years annual meet in Granville, the late Chris Rowe, former editor
> of Miscellany was our honored guest and featured speaker.
>
> We have about 80 members and more distant new members always find
> friendly reception. Recently Kathi Hoffman from the Houston Club was in
> Cincinnati and we had a small get together for her.

> I'm afraid that the UK Club and Miscellany does a better job of keeping
> the world of Morgan Clubs in better touch than our own US Clubs.
> There's been some discussion periodically about organizing a USA
> coordinating committee but nothing seems to happen from these
> discussions.

> Jim - you'd be very welcome to attend our annual meet at Punderson State
