Guys,
As a way to stimulate activitiy on the forum, I'd like to see some of us start posting dates/times/locations for any car shows in our areas, even if they aren't necessarily f-body specific. Car shows are something that we all enjoy, and are a great opportunity for a few local and semi-local members to get connected.
So if there are car shows in your area, feel free to post the info here!

i'm in the western new york region and there's a local run webpage that lists a ton of shows, events and cruise nights in the NY, PA, OH and even Ontario, Canada area. the webpage is RodandPiston.com: Home.
they even post pictures and videos of most of the Buffalo, NY area car shows and bigger cruise nights.
Keep it here too. If people prefer to post in this thread, then by all means, go for it. I just thought that most would rather make their own posts since a lot of people tend to skip over the stickies. But, this is already here, so by all means... post here too! I want to encourage people to post about local car shows, so anything that helps the cause is fine with me.
(i know it has old dates in it, but they will Obviously update it when the spring time approaches)
