You need not be present to win. The drawing is June 23 at 4:00 p.m. Raffle tickets and car-show flyers will be in the sauna, Clubroom or see Mike or Mary Barie. Come vote for your favorites, and buy your 50–50 and raffle tickets! Help put the word out, to friends who may be owners of classic cars and others who would enjoy the event.
