Classic car club wants youth in the community
NORWICH – The Rolling Antiquers Old Car Club and automotive and technology students from DCMO BOCES worked together the week of May 20 to prepare for the Memorial Day Classic Auto Show this weekend.
The idea of bringing the two groups together started earlier this year, when several people came together to discuss youth community involvement.
BOCES Coordinator Sonnet Constable, Automotive Technology Teacher Jim Foster and Automotive Collision Teacher Gary Benson met with Rolling Antiquers Richard Williams and Gwen Lubey to help get students involved.
Constable said, "Our students get so much from the RAOCC and the classic car museum, we wanted to give our efforts to the club to help them with their biggest event of the year. It is always good when our students can get involved with their community, and these students have an interest already, so it's a win-win for all."
Dick Williams, member of the RAOCC, said, "Our members work so hard to pull this event together –it's great to have some help and give the students the opportunity to see what is involved. We are always looking for new members, and who knows, maybe these students will be the next generation of the RAOCC."
Williams said students helped layout and arrange the grounds. He said the club would present two scholarships to two local students at the end of this weekend's show on Sunday.
The show and flea market will roll into town Friday night and run from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday at the County Fairgrounds, along East Main St., in Norwich.
