CHIEF JUDGE GEOFFREY BEST, King of Prussia PA, has had a life-long
love affair with classic American autos. He has spent countless hours tinkering with the engines of cars - his own and his
friends. And he is very knowledgeable about the fascinating history of American cars. One special challenge for judging our
show was that we did not require pre-registration; we wanted to encourage last minute decisions by car owners to attend. During
the show, Mr. Best developed award subcategories that recognized the unique quality of each car in the show.
RICHARD MEIER was the Coordinator of the auto show and member of
the Tinicum Polo Club Marketing Committee. He was assisted by KEN KURIGER and DIANE MEIER at the registration desk and by
PAULIE KOZMA at the gate. Carol Stahl was Announcer Extraordinaire for the auto show as she is for all of Tinicum Polo's special
events and polo matches.
