From the early morning hours, people poured out in droves to show off their vehicles on a beautiful Saturday, May 15th to meet friends, new and old, in a face-to-face setting rarely seen since 2019.
The Spring Auto Show was put on by the Saratoga Auto Museum and was open to all forms of motor vehicles from the very first automobiles through the latest all-electric Porsche Taycans and everything in between. The attendance exceeded all expectations with cars occupying areas not normally seen occupied at previous auto shows at this venue.
Hudson Champlain and Hudson Valley PCA Regions agreed ahead of time to partner up with the museum to put our clubs together in the premier center strip of the show field. We had a fantastic turnout from both regions and it was great to meet up with Fred Webster, HVR President, Tom Tully, HVR Social Activities Chair and many members of HVR! Our club patrons, Porsche of Clifton Park and Rick and Tom Dobush of R&D Automotive / Bavarian Rocket Scientists were also out in force with their teams.
To cap it all off, Hudson Champlain Region was awarded with the Best Car Club Participation Award and I was honored to accept the award on the club’s behalf!
I hope this first gathering event will be a strong positive sign for our Hudson Champlain PCA 2021 season!
