Hershey hasn’t been canceled yet because it’s a relatively small function compared to NBA, MLB, etc but it’s just a matter of time. Everything in Philadelphia and the surrounding area is canceled or getting canceled. If the Hershey Park people don’t do it, the state government will.



“- A number of U.S. states and cities have announced the closures of bars, restaurants, gyms and movie theaters to limit crowds. The Center for Disease Control recommended no gatherings of more than 50 people for the next eight weeks.”

The 2020 Hershey swap meet has been cancelled.

Note from Steve Limbert, the local PCA President:

“A quick note to let you and all 914 guys know that the BoD of the Central Pa region of the PCA have canceled the swap for 2020! It was a unanimous decision and after checking with Hershey they do not have dates available for the remainder of this year.”

Thanks for the update.

Kind of expected this would come to be.

That's a shame. It's the prudent thing to do I guess.

Makes the July get together that much more of a highlight. Hopefully this is a distant memory by then.

The feeling in the medical world, is best case scenario, 4-6 months before things can start to open and life can move on.

That’s not just me reading CDC, WHO websites but what the head of infectious disease at a major hospital told my wife.

I recently fought it out with Choice Hotels on a night they charged me for. I booked the room via the mobil site on my phone, checked the box that I needed a Pet Friendly hotel since the hua-hua's travel with me. I booked the room. The hotel called me the day I was supposed to go there and said don't bring a dog there, they no like dogs. I said ok, booked another hotel, then got charged for the first night as a "no show". I fought it out with Choice Hotels corp. and got a check from them refunding my night, but it wasn't easy.

Major bummer...

And I was worried about the weather (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

I had suggested a couple of years ago to Steve Limbert to maybe do a join swap meet and car show with the Philly region and maybe even the NJ Region at the conference center in Oaks Pa
It can be done inside and out plenty of room
Close to Pa turnpike & Route 76

It slants heavy to 356 because of Stoddard but 914 stuff is there. I know Garold has come a couple times, it's a good swap and will probably be great this year if it happens.

I doubt we will have any events this year.
