July 21, 2018 Change to the normal meeting time and place for the annual July Swap meet:

SUMMER SWAP MEET TO BE ON SATURDAY, JULY 21 AT FAIRFAX AMERICAN LEGION
The George Washington Model A Club July General Membership meeting will be held on a Saturday. As a break from the normal 3rd Wednesday evening in McLean, and in response from several members who have asked that we have a weekend meeting, the Summer Swap Meet Meeting will be held in Fairfax at 3939 Oak Street, Fairfax, VA 22030 (where the Club held its Christmas party the last few years), on Saturday, July 21. The Swap Meet will be operational from 10 AM to 2 PM. Members can set up the sales areas from 8:30 - 10:00, first come-first serve on sales spot location. All members are encouraged to set up a sales area. There is sufficient space for selling parts directly from the bed of trailers/ pickups used to haul the components. If tables and folding chairs are needed they should be brought from home. It is possible that other non-GWC vendors will be invited making it a prime place to pick up a bargain on the parts you need. More is Better!

Directions:
From the west: Take I-66 to Rt. 50 east exit (57A). At intersection with Rt. 29 (and where Rt. 50 turns left), continue straight onto Rt. 236. Third street along, turn left onto Oak St. Legion Hall parking lot is on the right.
