Dear Friends,

It's time to shake the cobwebs, remove the covers and start your engines. We have several events coming up soon, and you need to be part of it. Bring your Ferrari, meet up with old friends and make some new ones. It's 2013 and finally the season of driving is starting!

On April 27th, we have the 50th Anniversary Limited Edition 599 Relay car (see the cover of the current Prancing Horse) in Manhattan, and will then be at the Ronald McDonald House of Long Island! Please check out our calendar for the details, as this is all for a great cause and will be soooo much fun!!! We will have a rally with the 599 Relay car being in the lead to Ferrari of Long Island for a silent auction, cocktail hour, and a great time of festivities.

 

The following day on April 28th, the Relay car will be at Wide World of Cars in Spring Valley, NY for a breakfast, fun rally and then head to West Point! Please RSVP (details are on our calendar)!

 

Now for you adrenaline junkies - after a long and cold winter, May is just around the corner and Watkins Glen beckons us all. The Empire Region has again locked up two days (May 1st and 2nd) of fun and fury on this renowned circuit, and we cordially invite you to attend. In fact, we are insisting on your having the time of your life, and for those of us for whom our cars have such special meaning, nothing can exceed the Glen in outright thrills and enjoyment behind the wheel.

 

So if you haven't quite shaken off the winter blues, this is the time to register. Get yourself and your cars in shape for what will be another terrific season packed with numerous social events, rallies, touring drives and of course, The Empire Region's signature track events. The May dates at the Glen is your wake-up call so don't delay. We hope to see you there. This is open to Ferrari and non-Ferrari sports cars.

FERRARI CLUB OF AMERICA - EMPIRE STATE REGION

 

Welcome to the home of the Empire State Region (ESR) of the Ferrari Club of America (FCA). The FCA, the first and largest Ferrari Club in America has more than 5,000 members and is also the largest Ferrari Club in the world.

 

Our Region is one of 16 regions of the FCA and is comprised of members who live in the State of New York. Most of our members own a Ferrari; however, while enthusiasm for the marquee is key to enjoying membership, actual ownership of a Ferrari is not required.

 

Regions throughout the U.S. and Canada maintain a full calendar of events. These regional events are open to all FCA members regardless what home region they belong to. Every year, one of the regions hosts an Annual Meet where hundreds of Ferraris and people from  North America and elsewhere come together to enjoy several days of fun events (concours, track, rally, receptions, banquet, swap meet etc.) and celebrate the passion we all share for everything related to Ferrari.

 

We currently have two Chapters within our region, the Hudson Valley Chapter and the newly formed Long Island Chapter. The purpose and function of these chapters is the organization of regularly scheduled get-togethers for members who live in or near that specific geographic area of our region.

 

The ESR shares the same purpose as the FCA, which is to:

 

-    Inspire ownership, operation, restoration and preservation of Ferrari   automobiles throughout North America.

 

-     Serve the members as a source of information regarding Ferrari history and technical data.

 

-     Organize meets and exhibits.

 

-      Encourage fellowship among Ferrari enthusiasts.

 

-      Assist members in locating Ferrari automobiles and parts.

 

To become a member of our region, you must be a member of the national organization, the FCA.  All FCA members who live in our region automatically become regional members upon joining the national organization. Membership dues for the FCA are $ 135.00 per year.

 

I am looking forward to welcoming you at one of our future events.

 

Sincerely,

 

Roland Veit - Regional Director
