Metamora Pleasure Driving Show
This is the information I received from one of our community
members about this new show. "Hi Leia, I wonder if you could post
information on this new show in Michigan on your website. I am trying to help the people in the
east and midwest get more shows going for us vse's. Thank you, Marlene
