Two Chrysler meets in Portland, Oregon this summer. The 300 Club, Inc is in the planning process of holding a National meet July 14 - 17, 2004 at the West Coast Hillsboro Motel, Hillsboro, Oregon, the day before the Forest Grove Concours d'Elegance (www.forestgroveconcours.org). Hope you can attend. They will have a special section for the 300 Letter cars at Forest Grove on Sunday, July 18th. The Pacific Wonderland Region, WPC Club is having a Regional Meet at the Sweetbrier Inn, Tualatin, Oregon, August 25-28, 2004. The Car show will be on Saturday at Clackamette Park in Oregon City. This meet usually draws members from British Columbia, Washington, Idaho and California. We expect over 100 Chryslers at this meet. I am the Treasurer for the Club/Meet.

What is the likelihood of this happening? Are there any other members out there that are involved in other Chrysler clubs that might be holding some events in the Pacific Northwest? My busy schedule and often light wallet prevents me from driving (or flying) 1000's of miles to any of the 300 International meets. I enjoy being a member of this club, mainly due to this listserve, but only seeing the meets by pictures posted on the website and chating with other owners via email isn't quite enough any longer. Can anyone help? On another note, after reading many of the emails that were sent over the past few days I would like to clarify on behalf of myself and other members who own non-letter 300's that regardless of having a letter designation, our cars are very much "real" 300's. I didn't put the 300 emblems on my two '65 cars.........Chrysler did. I understand the rationale behind not allowing non-letter cars into shows and judged events along side letter cars representing the 300 Club International but I fail to understand why we would never have a joint meet with another club where non-letter cars and other Chryslers could be welcomed as well. After all, it's all about the people at these meets, right? Hope I haven't offended anyone, it wasn't my intention. 300'ly Ryan Hill (Vancouver) _________________________________________________________________ Get some great ideas here for your sweetheart on Valentine's Day - and beyond. http://special.msn.com/network/celebrateromance.armx To send a message to this group, send an email to: Chrysler300@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx For list server instructions, go to http://www.chrysler300club.com/yahoolist/inst.htm Yahoo!
