BMC president, Tom Miro, and 2020 British Car Day chairman, David Price, have called for “all hands on deck” for our 25th British Car Day on October 10. As we near the big day, planning is well underway, but we’ll need everyone who can, to pitch in as we shoot for our goal of fifty cars this year.
In preparation for the show, we’ll need help with placing flyers on potential entrants car windscreens and in the store-front windows of businesses. Download and print the FLYER HERE.
You can help expedite registration if you will complete the online Preliminary Registration so that all you’ll need to do on the day of the show is to pay your registration fee and have your photo with your car made.
We’d also like for you to solicit the donation of gifts to be used as door prizes. Experience has taught us that businesses like/need to have a letter stating the purpose of the donation is for their files or headquarters approval. We have put together some aids to make this happen. If you’d like to customize the letter with your donor businesses name, etc. you can download the MSWORD version of the Sponsor Letter HERE. We also have included some Talking Points to help close the deal. While we’ll be leaning heavily on the car related products and repair services, ANY donation from restaurants, or anywhere you do business, would be helpful.
And, of course, drive or drag your British car(s) to the show.
On the day of the show, we’ll need help as well. Let David know if you can help these volunteers:
