3 DVMA DISPATCH President Message Golden Hills Car Show in Suisun City was fabulous in a great location on the Waterfront. It was a gorgeous day and all the cars were spectacular. Do you think I enjoyed the Show? I loved it all. Golden Hills did a great job and made it simple for pre-registered cars to enter the Show grounds. I waited about 15 seconds for my bag of goodies and registration placard. Live music was excellent with 60s to 80s music and very entertaining for the Show crowd. DVMA s Mustangs Only Car Show on June 9 at Bill Brandt Ford in Brentwood is around the corner. Have you signed up? You can check to see if there is room but the last I heard we had plenty of Mustangs lined up and waiting to sparkle at this Show.
