Tesla Motors Club
Many of the local car clubs (Mercedes, BMW, Corvette, others) have a lawn event at the Larz Anderson Museum in Brookline, MA. Events are on Sundays, and there are 20+ per year.
This year's event list is at http://larzanderson.org/events/lawn-events/2015lawnschedule/
So, shouldn't there be such an event for Tesla, or at least for EVs? I wonder if TMC approached the Museum, a Sunday might be set aside next year for EVs. Would be fun, and a way to promote EVs. (I realize there are no many unclaimed Sundays in the schedule.)
Based upon my experience with the Mercedes-Benz Club, the clubs take care of registering the participating cars and collect a fee. Usually there are prizes for best cars in various classes, etc. Some clubs get corporate sponsors to help with costs, and the sponsors bring cars to display, or set up booths for whatever else they sell (car service, accessories, car care products, etc.). Visitors (spectators who are not displaying cars) pay a fee to the Museum to get into the show, and into the Museum as well.
What I do not know is the cost arrangement between the clubs and the museum (i.e., whether the museum charges for the event, either on a club basis or by car). But we could find out.
I am new here so I do not know how TMC is organized or who decides these things. So, throwing this out for consideration...
