CONCORSO ITALIANO® REDUCES PRICES DURING ECONOMIC DOWNTURN

A couple of weeks ago we asked for suggestions and comments from you, the enthusiast, about the Concorso®.  The response has been very supportive and instructive—and it keeps coming.  We want you to know we are listening.

We’ve moved the venue to a beautiful golf course (The Laguna Seca Golf Ranch). We are upgrading food and beverage options, and on the other end of the spectrum, we are upgrading the lavatories.  We are also working with some very special guests and features.  As you might imagine, this restoration process is not without substantial cost.

We want you to know that our aim is to provide the best event experience possible at a fair price.  We are therefore lowering the registration fees for the Exhibitors.  Remember these reduced fees include entry for the driver and a passenger to enter the show.

Italian cars will be reduced to $100 from $125 advance through May 31st, and then $150 after May 31st.  This is down from $175.

The registration price for non-Italian cars will be reduced to $150 from $175 through May 31st, and then $200, down from $225 thereafter.
 
Again, we are listening and want to let you know we “get it”.

All of these prices are lower than in recent years. Lowering prices is unheard of on the Monterey weekend.  Let’s hope other events, and especially hotels, will follow our lead and reduce prices accordingly.

Friends, I know this is not a lot of money, but every little bit helps and we hope you will feel some respect has been imparted to you, our loyal exhibitors.

Please keep sending your comments and suggestions.  Remember we are listening.

Ciao,

Tom McDowell
