August 8, 2010 - MINI Marque Event: Rallye, BBQ & Garage Crawl
The MINI Marque event was one of the best attended of the year, in spite of it being one of the hottest days of the year! The Rallye, the fantastic ribs and other great food, and the tour of the Brody's spectacular garage made it well worth braving the weather.

April 25, 2010 - Old Millington Winery
Nice weather led to a nice turnout for this popular annual event. A melting pot of BSCC member's cars (British, Italian, Japanese, German and American) lent some variety to the event - where we were also joined by a couple of Miata club members.

April 17, 2010  - Kiwanis Germantown Car Show
Five BSCC members participated in the show. Charles Coleman-Jaguar, Gordon Gold- Sunbeam Tiger, Chris Wilson-Morgan, Don Eye-MGB, Jeb Blanchard-Ford Thunderbird. Weather co-operated and had a good turnout. Larry Kiehna, Tom Wilson, and Jack Reynolds came by to visit. Some hardware was taken home but the only confirmed plaques were a 1st place for Jeb Blanchard and 3rd place for Gordon Gold.

April 11, 2010  - Shiloh Trip
The weather was perfect, Seven British cars and One Cadillac made the journey Sunday. This was the first BSCC event where Sunbeams outnumbered MG's. Two Alpines and one Tiger. We had a great drive to the Shilo National Battlefield. After the event at Shilo we drove to the Catfish Hotel restaurant and had a wonderful meal. Some returned via Hwy 57 and another group Returned via Hwy 64. There were no mechanical problems and everyone had a great time. Thanks to all who participated.       Gordon Gold
