Hello again

Just a quick recap - my name is Mark Fern and I am the entertainment coordinator of British-American Connections Pittsburgh, a not for profit based in Pittsburgh. Our goal is the promotion of British culture and business in Pittsburgh.  To this end my fellow board members and I are organizing a Festival.  You may have heard on local radio and television or the press about "Britsburgh" - A festival of Britain in Pittsburgh to be held from September 9 through 14th. This festival is timed to coincide with Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II becoming the longest reigning monarch overtaking Queen Victoria.  The festival has gained a lot of interest and has really taken off.

At the culmination of this festival is "A Very British Day Out" at Highmark stadium on September 13th, featuring British sports, food, drink, live music and more.

The webpage for the event is here:  http://bacpgh.com/2015/08/a-very-british-day-out-at-highmark-stadium/

To that end, we thought it would be great to have those folks who own British cars or bikes (of any age, vintage or era) come down and make it a full-blown British event.  We are reaching out to clubs and new car dealers and hope to get a great turnout (Thanks to those who have already responded and I apologize for the redundant email.)

If you have members who would like to attend, we ask that you just let us know approximately how many folk we might be expecting.  This is all very ad hoc, but we feel it is a very important part of the Pittsburgh/Britain connection, and cars generate a lot of passion among their owners.  We’d love to have you stop by the stadium and show off your vehicles.

Please feel free to distribute this email invitation to any one or group you think might be interested, and please drop me a line if you have any questions.

I look forward to hearing from you all.

Kind regards
Mark.
