2009 AACA Eastern Regional Fall Meet In Hershey
The 2009 AACA Eastern Regional Fall Meet is almost upon us! The entire town of Hershey is preparing for crowds that will be arriving next week. As you drive down HersheyPark Drive you see all the extra fencing going up for parking and soon the vendors trailers will be pulling in.
For those of you who are not familiar with what the AACA is, it is the Antique Automobile Club of America. Every fall they hold a meet here in Hershey, Pennsylvania. It consists of over 9,000 flea market spaces, over 1,000 car corral spaces and over 1,000 show cars. Visitors from all over the United States and many countries come to Hershey to see this event. Some of the most unique cars and hard to find parts can be found here in Hershey!
The 2009 Meet will start Wednesday October 7th and runs through Saturday October 10th. The hours are daily from 7:00 AM till dusk. Some of the special events going on during this time is the Night At The Museum Gala & Auction being held at the AACA Museum on Wednesday evening, Vintage Motor Cars of Hershey featuring over 100 vintage motor cars and lots of memorabilia items will be auctioned at the Hershey Lodge on Thursday, Race Car Condition Run on Friday, and Vehicle Judging on Saturday.
