The CT MG Club's 33 rd ANNUAL "BRITISH BY THE SEA GATHERING”

NEW DATE, AUGUST 29, 2021 10 AM till 4 PM 

HARKNESS MEMORIAL STATE PARK,

275 Great Neck Rd WATERFORD CT

The CT MG Club's "BRITISH BY THE SEA” is a fun GATHERING of people who own and appreciate British Vehicles of all Marques. We want to encourage ALL British car, truck, and motorcycle owners and enthusiasts to attend and have an enjoyable and safe time. Whether your vehicle is in pristine condition, or a daily driver, sparkling paint and chrome or with “Barn Fresh” patina, it deserves to be part of the event and on the display field. The Aug 29th BBTS will be a Socially Distanced “COVID Version”, keeping a social distance between each car in order to keep everyone safe. It will be mandatory that ALL attendees wear proper masks, and we will have to abide by all COVID -19 Guidelines that are in effect at the time of the Gathering. All of our Food Vendor order lines will be Socially Distanced. To use our Display Field area most effectively with this social distancing, cars will be parked in rows in the order that they arrive without separate Classes. The exception to this will be that we will still have Classes for British MOTORCYCLES and our Marque of the Year MODIFIED MG. These will be the only two voting Classes. Our BBTS Gathering is held at the scenic 240 acre Harkness Memorial State Park in Waterford Ct., on the north shore of Long Island Sound. We want to encourage people to come down and enjoy the day viewing the cars and also take in all that Harkness Memorial State Park has to offer, such as the beach, tours the Mansion “Eolia”, and the Gardens. The CT MG Club donates a large amount of our proceeds from BBTS to the Park to purchase plants for the West Gardens, helping to restore the “Eolia” Gardens to their original grandeur as designed by Beatrix Farrand in 1919. In addition, we provide “people power” over a few weekends to plant them. We have selected a variety of quality food vendors to attend in order to satisfy any appetite, from hot dogs and hamburgers, lobster rolls, deli sandwiches and wood fired brick oven pizzas, to Ice Cream for dessert. You can also bring a picnic to enjoy “out of the boot” of your car.
