Model A Youth Month
May 12 - MAYRA Chairman Bob Moore reminds us that May is Model A Youth Month, and chapters are encouraged to bring your Model A's to youth activities and encourage them to ask questions about Model A's. And check out the website areas specifically for youth - you'll find YOUTH in the left margin menus.
May 16 - From Antique Engine Rebuilding, Bluffton Indiana:
With May being Model A Youth Month, we wanted to share pictures from a local high school machine trades class visit to our shop back in April. We had the opportunity to host students on a field trip day to local manufacturing companies. The students were very intrigued buy the old cars that we keep running and on the road. They seemed impressed by the age of the cars and that they’re still road worthy! Feel free to share the pictures on Model A Youth pages.
We also have 3 kids of our own, and as a small family owned business they enjoy accompanying us to the shop and getting their hands dirty from time to time!
