>THE 2001 PALO ALTO BRITISH CAR MEET - CANCELED!!!
>
>Dear California British car enthusiasts,
>
>It is with an extremely heavy heart that we have to inform you that the
>23rd Annual Palo Alto British Car Meet, scheduled for Sept. 9th, is being
>canceled for this year. On August 20th, Caltrans, the California State
>highway board, informed the City of Palo Alto department of Parks &
>Recreation that they would be tearing up the El Camino Real and closing off
>El Camino Park from the street starting Sept. 1st. As the park is backed by
>railroad tracks and their are no other entrances that could handle 600+
>cars or trailers and equipment, there seems no way around the certain chaos
>and confusion and we have opted for cancellation.
>
>There was no way to comfortably use the park and little time to relocate
>the meet (barely enough time to cancel it!) we have been forced to cancel
>the Sunday car show. We will be back next year, possibly with a new
>location. We are truly sorry and hope that you understand this unfortunate
>turn of events. Please tell all of your British car owning friends so we
>don't have a bunch of people show up to an empty park.
>
>
>Sincerely,
>
