I was a member for many years at OSV. I didn't know that they had a Old Car Festival !

I'll have to check it out in the future.

The meet is not at OSV, it is at the host hotel, across the street. It is one of those convention style meets that we were discussing a few days ago, where the public is not invited, and there is much socializing and eating. More information is on the web at:

It is the annual New England Meet but I believe it is open to the public. What I mean is the public can look at the cars and wander about I have done this myself before I owned a car and I have friends that attended each year with us, but of course if a person wishes to attend the socializing and eating they must pay, some of the seminars also cost money. Let me assure you it is a gathering of Model A people to get together and have a fun weekend it is not a national convention...bobbycoke

It takes place during INTERNATIONAL MODEL A FORD DAY so the Saturday, Sept 18 Tour will be a part of IMAFD and photos will be taken for the National Magazine articles.
I have also arranged for an IMAFD banner to display following the tour.

Is there a flea market at the event? If so. I may take a run up on Saturday.

O.K. then, it's at the new motel near O.S.V.

While in the area, I suggest that you visit the village. Since the village is set in the 1830's time frame, your Model A will be a new/future car !

The clock museum at the village is very nice too.

June 4th the museum is planning something in conjunction with the Worcester County Model A Club. There will be more as we get closer. The New England meet has been going on for many years now and has met in this location a few times before. This was also the location of a national meet in 1988. Forget if it was MAFCA or MARC.

 

[Doug Linden]

Frank is correct, it was the MAFCA National Convention that was held in Sturbridge in 1988. I was co-chairman of the meet, was it really that long ago?

 

[Bruce Adams]

They USUALLY have a small flea market.
The also USUALLY have lots of neat Model A stuff for silent auction and chinese auction lottery with tickets in the cans.
I figure this year will be the same as always.
