Preserving History For The Next Generation |
|
When I am
visiting a car museum, I am very grateful that the "history" of the
automobile and the cars have been preserved for everyone to enjoy.
One wonders, what would happen to the car museums if they are not cared
for or if provisions are not made to preserve the automobiles. How
will the next generation of "car enthusiasts" learn or reflect upon the
"history" of the automobile?
If we want
to preserve the "history" and the beauty of our Classic automobiles, we
must then share in the responsibility of maintaining the
Classic Car Club of America Museum.
Frances
Bacon wrote "A wise man will make more opportunities than he finds."
Thus, let us take this opportunity to join the CCCA Museum
"family" and work together to preserve our automotive history for future
generations.
The museum
is located in Hickory Corners, MI on the grounds of the Gilmore Museum.
It is a non-profit corporation, making your contribution tax deductible.
As a
person who loves our hobby and as a member of the CCCA Museum Board, I am
deeply grateful for your interest and support. For more information
or to join the museum, please contact me at 908-459-4201 or e-mail at
