The St Louis Alfa Romeo Owners Club is hosting Spring Fling, a sort of mini-convention in Washington MO (40 miles west of St Louis), and we would like very much for all Alfisti (those who love Alfa Romeo automobiles) to come and join us.
Friday the festivities begin with Chats and Drinks 3 - 6 pm, followed by a Pizza Party dinner at the motel.
Saturday morning Spring Fling activities begin with a road rally/driving tour in the Missouri wine country and stop for lunch at a local winery. Then an open house, swap meet, and art exhibition at a beautiful old home in Washington overlooking the Missouri River.
The theme for this year's Alfa Art Exhibition is Finish. The theme may be interpreted as you like such as in to finish a race, as in having fins, or as in a native of Finland. All media are welcome, photos, drawings, paintings, stained glass, sculpture, needlework, computer art, fabric painting, and anything else. [Now that doesn't mean you have to create something based on the theme, you can enter any automotive related art you create. --jmh.] Judging is by popular vote.
Saturday night banquet will be at a local restaurant in Washington.
The next day starts with an Autocross, Swap Meet and People's Choice Concours.
Spring Fling concludes with the Awards Luncheon at a local restaurant.
Here are all the details. Fill out the registration form and send it in so you too can join in the fun.
