Folks,

2012 was a big year for C&C: We have over 750 subscribers on the email list, we expanded to a number of new locations and saw some great cars! Back in 2009, Kirk and I started C&C as a gathering of like-minded gear heads who enjoy discussing all things automotive early on a weekend morning. From all we have heard, others enjoying Cars & Croissants as much as we do.

Now as we wait for the temperatures to rise and the vegetation to turn green again, we are getting ready to have another great year. We realize some of the dates for C&C will conflict with other meets, events, etc. and as such please do worry if you miss one—there will be another in 2 weeks.

Finally, as we have requested in prior years, we greatly appreciate the respect/courtesy most of the attendees have displayed at our meets. As some of you know, finding locations for these meets is not easy. Loss of even one hosting location will greatly limit the ability of having these meets. So please encourage any of your friends or invitees to follow your display of consummate gearhead manners!

Here, with further ado, is the calendar for 2013.

Folks,

As you know, we are supposed to start our official 2013 C&C meet calendar this weekend. You have been probably waiting eagerly for this email to learn the details.

One change that we will have to make is that the meet will be held on Sunday morning (March 10) because neither of our usual spots are available on Saturday.

We will inform the group of the location by Friday.

Of course, all of this is if the incoming winter storm doesn't cause too many issues!

Thanks,

abi & Kirk

See previous post below on our Sunday meet -- 9:30 am start time this week only. Weather looks good, so see you all there. A head's up that last November, when we met at Paul Miller, we had over 350 cars show up.

################################################## ##############

All,

For this week's meet, Paul Miller Porsche,Bentley and Rolls Royce have graciously agreed to host us again. Details are:

250 U.S. Highway 46 West
Parsippany, NJ

Date: Sunday, March 24

Time -- 9:30 am to noon (NOTE THE NEW TIME -- THIS WEEK ONLY)

Our hosts will have their Porsche, Bentley and Rolls-Royce new car showrooms and the pre-owned showroom open exclusively for us (it is a Sunday and they are closed to the public) along with refreshments, and at least as important -- access to the restrooms (not for us, of course, for all of you old guys). :-)

Given the later start and end time (did we mention that and that it is this week only?), we will probably go for an informal pay-your-own-way lunch afterward. (Sorry - had to make the lunch payment terms clearer, ever since some of you lined up for the "free" breakfast (with the hotel guests) at the Hampton Inn next to the Hilton the first time we had a meet there -- as always, folks, there
is no free lunch!) Everyone is welcome to join us.

We hope to see all of you there.

Regards,

Kirk and Abi
