"Best" Two Days To Attend The Convention
« on: April 25, 2012, 04:30:08 PM »
New member here.  My wife and I will be attending the convention this year in Sweetwater.  We can only attend for two days, so we are wondering which two days would be the best in your opinion.

P.S. We do not own a Kaiser or Frazer automobile we just like them!

My favorite is the show n shine day and the banquet.  Normally those both happen on Thursday I believe.

Wednesday and Thursday would be your best days. Wednesday will have most of the parts vendors out with their wares and Thursday is the car show and judging event with the banquet that evening. If you can only do 2 days, those are the ones to do!

I may be able to spend a day or two there. No plans yet. Gotta a daughter getting married and a daughter graduating from highschool so car shows take a back seat.

Wednesday and Thursday are the best days, but spend the night and leave Friday morning after Blanche's champagne toast and send-off.
