Sponsors:
We have been working fast & furiously building the club sponsorship base. We have added 4 new sponsors, including International Saab in Falls Church, VA, Radial Tire in Silver Spring, MD, Trent Saab (England, UK) and Saabnet (TSN for short). Viking Automotive has been a club sponsor since the club's inception last year. All will be giving us door prizes for club events, and most will provide club member discounts off of parts and accessories. We are also seeking sponsorships from VOB Saab in Rockville, MD, S&S in Warrenton, VA, and many more! TSN has sent us a huge load of goodies to give away, so be sure to come to our Carlisle event for the door prizes! We are planning to have a good bounty of other door prizes from other sponsors for the Carlisle event as well, including a free 1 yr. club membership.
Carlisle Event:
May 17 - 19, 2002, Carlisle, PA
Preregistration has begun and the event is fast approaching. So far we have 53 Saabs preregistered between our club, the Central Penn Saab Club, and some other regional clubs. Please fill out the attached form and send it in to either me, or George Bayshore (as listed on the form) with a check for $10 BY APRIL 27TH!!!!!. After that, the cost goes up (and the form goes directly to the Carlisle Fairgrounds people) If you are bringing more than one car, please send along the appropriate amount, which I believe is only an additional $5. A third car is free! If you would like a T-shirt for the event, please indicate what size you want, and include another $10 for each T-shirt.
I would like to organize a caravan upto Carlisle for Saturday morning (leave from Frederick at about 8 am). If you are interested in joining the caravan, please contact me. For more event info, please go to:

I hope all is well with everyone. Congratulations to Garry Grimes on his new Viggen, Jim Miller on his new Aero Wagon, and to my wife and her new-to-her 1995 Aero! :o)
Take care,
Michael Heyse
PS: The logo below is just a sample. We're working on it!
