Provinces of New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Saskatchewan Proclaim July 2017 as AUTOMOTIVE HERITAGE MONTH

 

Thanks to the efforts of the National Association of Automobile Clubs of Canada, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Saskatchewan have each issued a proclamation designating July 2017 as “Automotive Heritage Month.”  These provinces join others that have officially recognized this celebration of collector cars.  Since 2010, the U.S. Senate has passed resolutions at the SEMA Action Network’s (SAN) request to acknowledge “Collector Car Appreciation Day” which serves to raise awareness of the vital role automotive restoration and collection plays in American society.  This year’s celebration is scheduled for Friday, July 14th.

In the previous seven years, thousands of hobbyists in the U.S and Canada have gathered at car cruises, parades and other events to celebrate our shared automotive heritage.  By taking part in these events around the country, these automotive enthusiasts and related businesses have ensured that their passion was honored and recognized.

Make your plans to get involved. Individuals, car clubs, and business owners have been registering their gatherings for inclusion on the SAN website at this link. However you choose, please pay tribute to our hobby’s special day by holding or attending a celebration near you. Encourage others to follow suit. Let’s get those cars and trucks out of the garage and onto the road!


Please submit the details of your celebration. For questions, contact SAN Director Colby Martin at 909-978-6721 or san@sema.org. You may also download the official logo and flyer from the homepage and help promote this special day.
