Classic Sports Sunday Meets in Palm Beach..The exceptional week of Cavallino Classic activity in January of 2010 will be suitably crowned by an exclusive Sunday program. Classic Sports Sunday will be held for its ninth year at Mar-a-Lago, the legendary Marjorie Merriweather Post mansion in Palm Beach.
Classic Sports Sunday has been expanded in the last two years to include extraordinary pre- and post-war classic sporting automobiles. The response of significant vehicles from the Mar-a-Lago era has been rewarding, and this will continue on January 24, 2010 with many supremely elegant examples on display. The setting will be superb as always, with the historic and restored mansion and the pristine grounds adding to the tropical splendor.
120 vintage and classic sporting automobiles will be presented on the lawn. During the morning, refreshments will be served as participants and guests vote for their favorite automobiles in several categories. A jury of international automotive experts will also judge the examples by class.
There will be over sixty Ferraris of all types and years, from a 166 MM to the latest 458 Italia. Among the other marques will be historic pre-war Alfa Romeos, elegant Aston Martins, racing and production Jaguars, Maserati race and street cars, futuristic Lamborghinis, stately Mercedes-Benz, grand old Rolls-Royce and Bentleys, lovely Delahayes and Bugattis, plus un- usual but superb examples of coachbuilt Fiats, Lancias, Lagondas, Talbot-Lagos and others.
All the Awards will be presented at the charity brunch at noon in the exquisite setting of the Mar-a-Lago ballroom. The Major Awards, the Palm Beach Cups, will be voted on by the participants and guests. The Class Awards, representing Best in Class and Excellence in Class, will be voted on by the distinguished Jury.
Benefiting from this Classic Sports Sunday at Mar-a-Lago will be our traditional chari- ties, the American Council of the Blind Scholarship Fund and the Dreyfus School of the Arts.
We thank all the previous participants and guests, as well as the staff of The Mar-a-Lago Club, who have made this a truly memorable day. Join us and help us to continue this truly elegant tradition.
