“Where Sunbeams and friends meet”
Your BASH this year promises to be a particularly memorable one.
Although it is really a one day event, your experience can begin Friday evening, June 13 with other Sunbeamer’s at the Hollywood Casino Mountain View Restaurant watching live thoroughbred racing from your own trackside table or having fun losing more money than the cost of a Sunbeam at the Casino.
Valve Cover Racing Returns Saturday afternoon at the AACA Museum
- Bring your favorite valve cover with wheels.
- Personalization is encouraged.
- Classes for all age groups.
- VCR rules and info.
Staying over Saturday night after the BASH?
See The Elegance at Hershey on Sunday modeled after the finest of European and American Concours d’Elegance presentations located on the gardens of Hotel Hershey. Think Pebble Beach.

Meet at the base of the Grand Ascent (Previously the Hershey Vintage Hill Climb).
- Enter off of route 39.
- Follow entrance signs in the area.
- There may be a $10 gate fee to enter. However we are presently working on allowing those arriving in a Sunbeam to enter free.
- Be sure to ask if Sunbeams enter free. Not everyone knows what a Sunbeam looks like, but you can educate.
- Once inside the meadows proceed to the SUNBEAM BASH parking corral near the base of the hill.
