The AROC Annual Meeting in Frederick, MD is hardly a month away. As many of you are aware, MAARC is planning a pre-convention drive that will begin on Tuesday, June 22nd and we will arrive in Frederick on Wednesday afternoon, June 25th.

Wednesday June 23rd
- Breakfast/Check out
- Drive back roads through The Plains, Middleburg and Purcellville to Breaux Vineyards

I will not be able to attend the convention due to a business obligation and was wondering if anyone from the HR group of MAARC would do me a favor above and beyond the call of duty. At the convention, Shin Yoshikawa, a well known artist and car enthusiast, will be unveiling and selling a signed/numbered cutaway drawing of a Duetto commemorating the 100th celebration. The prints will go on sale, I'm told, on Thursday AM at the hotel where the celbration is headquarters. Would it be possible for someone to pick me up one? I'll be glad to arrange prior payment ($30 I'm told). More info is on the AR BB- here's the link for more info.( http://www.alfabb.com/bb/forums/spider-1966-up/163942-start-drawing-duetoo-8.html )
I can be reached days at 757-275-4922 for arranging details. Thanks!
