Club President, Ken Pitcher, with Tim Dye from the POCI Museum and Pontiac Mayor Bob Russell.
All proceeds benefit the Museum, so please consider it as a donation to the POCI Museum, if you can’t make it in person.

There will be plenty of second generation Firebirds like these two that came last year.
We want to see more third generation Firebirds like this beautiful example.
The high-performance fourth generation ‘birds and Trans Ams will be on display in full force on Sunday.
Last year, several people trailered cars and stayed overnight at these Pontiac hotels. There is plenty of room for parking a trailer and tow vehicle.
