What's New
NAACC June 2022
These are not Lions Gate Club members in costume for our first tour of 2022 to Fort Langley,
just some friendly
local residents attracted to our cars.
We had a good turnout for the event. After a brief early morning snow shower, the sun came out.
It was great to see fellow club members for the first time since last year.
Payments can now be made by Interac e-transfer through your bank and will be automatically deposited in the club's bank account.
Instructions and the e-mail address to use can be found in the Members Area.
Payments can still also be made by mailing your cheque directly to Al Glen. Please make cheques payable to Lions Gate Model A Club.

Car Stories
Phil Kneeland of the Charter Oak Model A Club in California has been passing on car stories to NWRG clubs to maintain enthusiasm during these lockdown times. Some of the stories are short and some are long. They are all good and very interesting. The common thread is the authors telling about adventures or mishaps when they were younger. Click on the following links for the latest. If any LGMAC members would like to contribute their own story, please pass it on the your webmaster so we can share with Phil.
