SUMMARY:SAH/SAHB "Chin Wag"
DESCRIPTION:They’re friendly\, casual Zoom gatherings to talk about any aspects of automotive history. Our Chin-Wag Zooms last 90 minutes and typically have ten to twenty participants who are free to come and go during each session. We are known to go off into the weeds and down rabbit holes and while there is no set agenda\, participants are welcome to suggest topics or questions beforehand. Society and club business are NOT discussed. Most importantly\, it’s an opportunity to meet or to become better acquainted with enthusiasts in other lands; recent Chin-Wags included attendees from France\, Italy\, the UK\, New Zealand\, Australia\, and three time zones across the US and Canada. \n  \nThe next Chin-Wag takes place on Sunday\, September 13. \nSunday start times: \nUS and Canada 12:30 PM PDT\, 2:30PM CDT\, 3:30PM EDT \n20:30 in the UK \n21:30 in Europe \n…and concurrently\, these Monday morning start times: \n5:30AM in Australia \n7:30AM in New Zealand \nTo have your name added to the Chin-Wag Zoom invitation list\, simply reply to this Newsletter email. \nWe hope you’ll join us! (bb)

SUMMARY:2022 Eastern Division AACA National Fall Meet in Hershey\, PA
DESCRIPTION:We resumed our customary big-tent presence on the flea market Orange Field this year and were happy to see Hershey Week resemble something close to “normal.” Tuesday was the obligatory foul weather day this year\, but by Thursday and Friday the sun was shining and the temps were comfortable. For the first time\, our Annual General Meeting took place at the tent Wednesday afternoon; the session went well and after the required reports a lively discussion ensued among the dozen attendees about the future of the SAH. The Fall Board Meeting was held at the Hershey Country Club Wednesday evening\, the Annual Book Signing took place Thursday afternoon at the tent with 16 authors in attendance\, and the Annual Awards Banquet was held Thursday evening at the Hershey Country Club.
