Due to the impending arrival of Hurricane Dorian on Sunday/Monday, our road trip to Summer Crush to see the Beatles Guys Concert is being cancelled. Praying that everyone stays safe through the storm!
Since our statewide Miatas cruise-in event to the winery is just around the corner, I thought I’d list the car clubs web sites from the state who will be attending so our members can familiarize themselves with the folks who will be joining us at Summer Crush.
