GARAGE TOUR FOR 2010
LeRoy Rogers

The 2010 garage tour will be at the J & R Vintage Auto Museum in Rio Rancho on
February 6, 2010. The museum is located at 3650-A Highway 528 (on Highway 528 a
short distance South of Highway 550).

Those who want to go to lunch will meet at the Range Cafe in Bernalillo at noon.
It's on Bernalillo's main street, 925 Camino del Pueblo, Bernalillo, NM.

For those who want to go directly to the museum, we should be there at about
1:30 PM. The entry fee is $3.00 for all ages in groups or three or more. Updates
or changes in plans will be noted at our monthly meetings or in upcoming
Newsletters. I was unable to bring the museum site up on Google maps, but I did
get it on Bing.
