The 23rd Annual Chrysler Convention will be held, rain or shine, August 30, 2009 at the Connecticut Golfland, Route 83 Vernon, CT. This is a Charity show to support MDA. This is New England’s Largest All Mopar Judged Show & Swap in the same location. We accept all vehicles that come under the Mopar Umbrella and will have classes for them. We recommend pre-registration to validate a class (10 cars needed per class for trophies). There is an AMC, Jeep, 1981 and Modern Muscle, trucks and all the usual Muscle classes.
This show celebrates its 21st anniversary at this location. Food will be available. There will be music by “MELODY MAKER”, a local DJ firm. There are lots of kid friendly activities on the grounds. The children will get a free game of miniature golf and arcade tickets. For any donation to MDA, parents will get the same tickets for Golfland amusements.
Pre-registration is encouraged to prepare for proper class breakdown and to keep the lines moving so as all cars can get registered and parked as quickly as possible. In the event of foul weather, all pre-registrations will have their T-shirts and dash plaques mailed out. This year’s event T-shirt will pay highlight an old school alcohol dragster that shows up every year. T-shirts can be ordered in advance for $15 and picked up at the show. Please send along the size.
Goodie bags will include dash plaque, T-shirt and samples (constantly changing). T-shirts to the FIRST 150 vehicles REGISTERED on SUNDAY!!!
There will be up to 25 Judged Classes with 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. A minimum of 10 vehicles constitutes a class for trophies. Anything less than this is subject to revision.

Wrap - up from the 2008 show
The weather was good this year for the show. We had 163 vehicles participate. I would like to thank our many sponsors who helped make this another great show:
- Bolles/ Chrysler/ Dodge/ Jeep of Ellington Hartford,
- Gem Jewelry of Vernon,
- American Collectors Insurance and
- Stoner Chemicals.
These fine companies provided Goodie bag stuffers and door prizes. Our fine staff of volunteers included Nancy Matthews, Emily Noonan, Joseph Sokola, Al & Richard Rick, Tony Mazzola and Chet Greenwood.
The class winners are listed on the 2008 Winners Page.
