The Metro Detroit Chapter of the Falcon Club of America is hosting the 2010 national meet in Dearborn Michigan. It is being billed as Falcon's Fantastic 50th... Welcome Home! It will be coming to Dearborn July 15-17, 2010.
Saturday evening there was a planning meeting and status check for the event. There are always issues that pop up and need attention. It is important that local merchants be approached for sponsorship. A donation of items to raffle or a cash contribution is always welcome to help the show. O'Reilly Auto Parts has stepped up in a big way with their sponsorship of the awards. Registration areas were discussed and the cost of the 20 X 40 foot tent was a heart stopper.
Activities for attendees to take in prior to the show were discussed. The Dearborn area is rich in Ford lore and activities. The Rouge Plant tour is at the top of the list along with a visit to the Fairlane Mansion. The mansion was the home of Henry and Clara Ford. It has been restored to it's prior glory. It is located on the southern area of the University of Michigan Dearborn Campus. The Henry Ford and Greenfield Village are a mile from the Hyatt Hotel where the show is being held. There will not be any lack of activity for attendees.

Hope to see you there. I will have both my 1970 1/2 Falcons at the show.
