The annual "Awkscht Fescht" in Mecungie PA, plus model car exhibit
The 1:1 show lasts from fri Aug 5 through sun Aug 7, but the model car exhibitors are there Sat AM. at 10 AM
I have met other Forum members there for lunch in years past and will be going with my wife on Sat Aug 6. There's a great lunch spot right nearby, love to meet up with anyone else attending.
Here is the website:

Mark, Macungie is a stones throw away. I didn't know about this show. I'll check with my better half and see if she would like to go. If we can make it I'll reply to this post again.
The 'indoor toy show' vendors have more than just cars, my wife has gotten some old children's books and period magazines here.
Macungie 2016
Mark, I hope to be there this year, having missed last year. So, I plan to attend - though if the weather looks bad (meaning: rain) I may decide not to come after all. All that said, I would love to plan on linking up with you as in the past for lunch at a minimum. In the coming two weeks, let's keep watching the Weather Channel and hope for a nice Macungie day on the 6th.
P.S. -- I'm anxious to talk to you about your whitewall adjustments for the GLM 69 Continental. Very nicely done!

Yes, we enjoyed meeting you a few years ago. Both the model and 1:1 show are fantastic!
