An event is under construction for three marques within their service - Jaguar, Land Rover and Rolls Royce. You’re welcome to drive direct or travel to York EuroCar just after the close of HVH with Will and others at 10:15 AM.

NAPA's American Classics Show with Milwaukee Tools
Extend your Saturday morning with more good times! HVH first gathered at NAPA Hunt Valley back in 2013 when their best-in-class retail center had its Grand Opening. With NAPA’s big, new partnership with Milwaukee Tools and it being a good time in the calendar to gather, let’s do it again! Of course, I’d love to say that all marques and generations are invited but we’re dealing with a small gathering venue so a focused group was necessary. The gathering area will encompass the entire, long front parking area at 10950 Gilroy Road.
BC Brewing - for food, beverage and games - resides in the same long building as NAPA. You’ll find them generally near the middle of the gathering area. Scott from 98 Rock will be energizing our community with good tunes and positive vibes near the front entrance of NAPA. Right in front of Scott will be the System X Renew demo area where we’ll periodically show off the 100% Made In America and best-in-class ceramic spray product. Flanking the demo area will be 2 racing machines with direct ties to our state and our community. Head inside of NAPA to shop the big Milwaukee lineup and everything under their expansive stock. Pickup some System X Renew for your car or truck and show its paint, trim, glass and wheels the love it deserves. See Renew in action with a product demo. Simply the best ceramic coating for the consumer market. Now let’s hope for some nice weather! See you there!
NOTE THAT THE GATHERING AREA AT NAPA WILL NOT BE OPEN BEFORE OUR CARAVAN ARRIVES. THE CARAVAN for 60s to 80s American Classics will form in the area where you’ll usually park at HVH - in the 2 long rows starting ‘near’ the front of Iron Rooster. LINEUP EARLY!!
