LOS ANGELES BRITISH CAR MEET CANCELED !
* FREE BRASS DASH PLAQUE OFFER *
Dear British Car Enthusiast,
This posting is to inform all of you out there in California British car
land that the 2001 Greater Los Angeles British Car Meet, first scheduled
for October 14th, then postponed until December 2nd, is NOT going to happen
this year. To say that we are disappointed would be an understatement.
The situation at Woodley Park has changed dramatically since last year.
After 19 years of British Car Meets at Woodley, a new park event
administration is in the middle of a reorganization and policies governing
use, size of events, fees, security, liability, and other legal matters are
changing. Until these requirements are clearly thought out and evaluated,
ALL car meets from now on at Woodley will be at risk.
Car meets are now being considered "Special Events" like rock concerts or
Highland Games, rather than low key family type events and the City seems
to be intent on using Woodley as a fairground-type event venue. The
liability and fees have gone up dramatically and while the new
administration has been actively attempting to work with us, the
reclassification makes an event like ours at Woodley unfeasible at this
time.
Those of you who have been coming to this event for a long time will
remember that this happened once before in the early 1990s when the LA
British Meet had to be moved from Woodley to the Santa Monica Air Museum
because of a similar situation. Another management change allowed us to
return to Woodley after two years.
We hope to be back at Woodley in 2002 if details can be worked out, or if
not, at another venue. We thank you so much for your support and
participation over the past 21 years and hope to see you again next year.
