Upcoming Member Events

Hunt Country Classic British Car field prep and the October Natter & Noggin.

Putting on the Natter is a team effort, and we’re always looking for volunteers. The day before the event we will be gathering at the site to mark the field, put up signs, and make other preparations. Since it’s also so close to our Natter day, you’re all welcome to join us in nearby Marshall at the Old Salem Cafe. We’ll probably make this a double-header, with some folks showing up early for breakfast, and others coming in after we’re done for Lunch and Libations. 

Hunt Country Classic British Car Show

HCC Logo RevisedThe 2024 Hunt County Classic British Car Show is fast approaching! Sunday, October 13th will be our 28th annual celebration of our mutual interest in all British Classic vehicles including motorcycles. Be sure to pre-register online. Full information is here. Tickets and pre-registration info available here

Please note that it is a very slow process to register on the day of the event, as there’s no credit card processing due to lack of cell service in the country. Save time and money, and please do it beforehand.

Now Available - Helping Hands

The website now features a new benefit for our members. We now have full-featured online photo-based classified ads where you can sell cars, parts, search for things you need, list car storage space and other features.

One highlight, is that we’re also supporting Helping Hands. This is a new concept we have where some of members have volunteered to lend a hand with others doing projects on their cars. Keep in mind, this isn’t us volunteering to do the work, but is instead an extra pair of hands while you are doing the bulk of the work. We may be able to offer experience or expertise while we’re at it, and at least include moral support :). You can post your upcoming cool projects in a new section, as well as list yourself if you want to occasionally help others. The new classifieds can be found here, and from there you can navigate to the other sections, including the Helping Hands.

Recent Event Highlights

Braille Rally

What’s a Braille Rally? Well – We have a page about that HERE.

image 50731009 scaledWhat a day! We held the 59th edition of our Club’s Braille Rallye.  at the Manassas Battlefield.  We started and finished on the grounds of the Winery at Bull Run With spectacular weather, and a slate of  visually impaired participants. This year, drivers were guided around the Battlefield by our navigators to find answers to historical questions we had posed. navigators used instructions and clues in braille or large text. This year’s competition was graded on accuracy rather than speed, which made the whole process a bit more relaxed and safer. We had just enough drivers, and the course was just right. We ended with a great lunch, and adults came home with bottles of wine.
