Yup, it is that time of year again, already! Take another look around your garage and basement. Need to move some of that stuff? Space was very nearly sold out last year, so now is the time to get serious and reserve your vendor space for the swap meet while it’s still available.
Fees and ticket prices: Same as last year, vendor spaces will be $25 per space (10x10 feet), tables are $5 each, chairs are $1 each. No tail gate selling allowed. Visitors tickets will be $5 with kids 12 and under still free. As always, parking is free. If you need additional information you may contact either Jim Evans (630) 858-8192 or Dave Mullis (630) 916-735.
If you can spare some time to help set up on Saturday evening, February 26, or to help out at the event on Sunday February 27, please call Jim or Dave to select a time slot, or you can sign up at a club meeting.

A reminder to all that the 9th annual “All British Car Swap Meet & Autojumble” will be held this year on February 27 from 8AM to 3PM, at the DuPage County Fairgrounds in Wheaton, IL.
This event is conducted by the Chicagoland MG Club but has the support and participation of all the British car clubs in the Chicago area. Consequently, vendor items are available for all marques of British cars.
Since its beginning, this event has built a strong following to the point that enthusiasts from many surrounding states now attend. Last year, over 900 shoppers browsed through over 100 vendor spaces in search of their needs. While many vendor spots go to individuals, well known companies also bring their wares. Some already booked in include Little British Car Co, Triple-C, British Wiring, TS Imported, and Northshore Imports.
Jim Evans, for The Chicagoland MG Club
