August Meeting Is Now Online

Our August meeting has been moved online in order to comply with COVID-19 social distancing regulations.  See below for details.

Upcoming Activity Cancellations

Because the safety of our members is our primary concern, several of our planned upcoming activities have been cancelled due to concerns over the COVID-19 virus.

  • Our general meeting August 25 has been changed from in-person to online.
    See below for details.
  • The Einhorn hot dog party in August has been cancelled, and a social distancing event has taken its place. See the Calendar Page for details.

Other upcoming activities may also be postponed or cancelled depending on what happens with the continued virus situation. Check this website for the latest updates and status of other upcoming TCMG activities.

 

meetings

Our meeting on August 25th will be held online using the Zoom application.  The meeting will begin at 6:00 PM PDT.  You can participate using any computer or device with the free Zoom software installed.  If you require assistance installing Zoom, contact Steve Simmons or David Edgar.

The evening’s program is “Shared Memories”.  Everyone can participate in sending a photo (please ID people in photo if possible, approximate date and location/event). The photos selected are meant to stimulate memories for everyone, whether it is of the same event or of something similar they also attended. If you wish to share one of your memories or favorite photo or of a recent photo with a grandchild in the car, please send to Joyce Edgar by August 20, 2020 via email.

We can digitize a printed photo or slide if you want to send an original media (we will return the item), just send early as they take significantly more time for use to utilize.

Note that anyone making a simulated journey to the meeting in their TC by driving a minimum of 10 miles on the day of the meeting will receive a point toward the Sargent Award.

July recap: 31 members attended our July virtual (online) meeting.  Five TCs drove a “simulated journey” to the meeting.  Those TCs were driven by Edgar, Hunsberger, Loe, Simmons and Zucca.

events

NOTE: This event could be cancelled depending on the Covid-19 situation. Check back for updates.

Our September event is the Queen’s English Car Meet and Auto Jumble on Sunday the 27th at Woodley Park in Van Nuys from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM. The gates open for participants at 8:00 AM. Bring a picnic and we will gather in the MG section around 11:30 and enjoy seeing one other while observing social distancing guidelines.

There is a pre registration form on their website or you can register as you arrive. If you do not plan to enter a car in the show, park in the public parking area and walk in at no charge.This will be our first in-person event since March when we toured the Lanterman House. It seems so long ago. I am keeping my fingers crossed that this annual meet will be held as scheduled. If the organizers decide to cancel, I will send a group email with an alternate tour. Either way, stay safe and enjoy your MG. – Richard Loe, TCMG Events Chair 2020
