Time to Register for the 2008 Convention

Only 13 days left to register for the National Convention!
 
The 2008 convention will be Friday, June 27 through Sunday, June 29.

It's time to make your hotel reservations.


The conference hotel is the Country Inns and Suites, 1912 East Kilgore Road,  Kalamazoo, MI, 49002. A block of 50 rooms has been reserved for Friday and Saturday night at a discount.The hotel has agreed to also offer the discount for two days before and two days after the event (6/26 - 6/30).

To reserve the rooms, you need to call the hotel directly at 269-382-2303 and mention the Checker Car Club convention before June 1. Different types of rooms are available. I made my reservations in January.

2008 requires pre-registration and there is a nominal $10 per person fee. We will have a Friday afternoon barbecue, a Friday evening cruise-in at Pep Boys, the Saturday show at the Air Zoo, a Saturday evening buffet and presentation, and a Sunday mid-morning buffet. 

All the activities will take place in close proximity to each other, making it very convenient for people attending this year. You can even walk from the hotel to the show site if you don't mind a short 1 1/2 mile hike. We will also have multiple new venues for exhibiting the cars and interacting with the public.

Restored Swiss Checker Ambulance!

From the "was gonna put this up sooner, before [fill in the blank] happened" files:

1964 Checker ambulance

Max at the ACT Special Car Center in Switzerland sent this photo of a 1964 Checker ambulance, fully restored in their car shop.  Wow!  I had always wondered if one of these had survived, and now we know.
