Tony, this mean you're sticking around after the nationals for this one?  I know Lee's got a wedding to go to that Saturday but I've been thinking about coming down on Saturday.
Is Lee marrying Miss Ukraine from the Gettysburg hotel? I knew it.....
It will be a formal wedding. They got out the white shotgun.

 Can someone please explain the protocol for the Friday Cruise-In? Is this an actual judged event or is it based on participant/spectator voting etc.? Are there any guidelines or special criteria? Do the classes for Saturday remain the same on Friday? I was just wondering how things were organized...

The website doesn't really have a lot of specifics about the Friday show. But, with this being the AF's 36th annual event, I'm sure they have it down to a science by now. With over 1000+ cars expected for Friday alone, it sure sounds like a great time!

Hope the weather is good for all of the festivities.   Bruce

Friday Cruise-In is "sponsors choice". Officials from the Arthritis Foundation will circulate and pick their 100 favorite cars of all the makes attending on Friday so clean and shiny are the order of the day.

Saturday is a judged show. AMC class is a "show within a show" and I believe the Ohio American Motors Classics chapter of AMO is in charge of the AMC portion of the show including judging.

If your staying at one of the hotels within walking distance you could park in the AMC area on Friday and leave your car there overnight so your in the right location for Saturday. Or you could park anywhere on Friday, move your car to hotel parking Friday night, and put your car in the AMC area on Saturday morning. It is all up to you.

Unless something very unexpected happens I should be there both days. I have been attending this show on and off for many years now. It is one of my favorite shows.

Schmidt's should be one of the food vendors again this year. You have to try their Bahama Mama sausage plate with hot German potato salad and have a cream puff for dessert.

Map of the show area. Note that AMC is in section 24. That means everyone entering the show area will be driving past the AMC section. Good place to be featured.

Talked to Jeff Kennedy yesterday. He said he will be setting up the local club tent and some AMC signage in the AMC area on Friday. Be sure to look for him in the AMC area.
