The Sports Car Club of the San Juan Islands, in conjunction with the Rotary Club of San Juan Island will hold its Ninth Annual Concours d’Elegance at the San Juan Vineyards on Sunday, August 30, 2015 from 11:00 AM until 3:00 PM.
This year, the Concours will consist of a “Judged” section and a “Display Only” section. All vehicles will be eligible for the “People’s Choice” award.
Entrants, register at the gate after August 18. Refer to www.sanjuanconcours.org for entrance fees.
Spectators are welcome with FREE general admission, although a voluntary tax-deductible contribution is encouraged.
The schedule of events for Sunday:
9 – 10:30 AM Open for Entrant Parking

For those interested in making a weekend of it, activities for Entrants and Car Club Members will include a BBQ lunch on Saturday, August 29th to welcome our off-island Entrants. Last years’ Poker Run was a big hit and will be brought back “by popular demand”.
The Concours is a charitable event with this years’ net proceeds going to the Hospice of San Juan, ‘Round Towner Charity Taxi, and Rotary’s PolioPlus. During the past six years, nearly $50,000 has been distributed to six local charities. This has been made possible through generous donations by Sponsors, Entrants, and Spectators.
