  The Voice of the Concours

 Often referred to as “the Voice of the Concours,” Ed Lucas has spent 30+ years as Master of Ceremonies, Color Commentator and Announcer at National Collector Car Shows, Concours and important vehicle auctions around the country. 

 His encyclopedic collector car knowledge and announcing expertise will be entertaining and informative.

  The 1st U.S. Volunteer Cavalry Regiment - Rough Riders, Inc. was formed for the purpose of creating and perpetuating a living memorial to the unique accomplishment of President Theodore Roosevelt and the members of the 1st U.S. Volunteer Cavalry Regiment known as "The Rough Riders." 

Every year, the Rough Riders collect, sort, and distribute thousands of Teddy Bears to hospital patients, cancer survivors and their families, centers for abused women and children, community health centers, special needs day care centers, and foster children. 

 Community Involvement is a long-standing objective of the 1st U.S. Volunteer Cavalry Regiment - Rough Riders, Inc. For over 36 years, the Regiment has contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars both financially and in volunteer hours. Whether providing a material goods or manpower, Rough Riders live to get up close and personal with the community where they live and work.  

  The Steinbrenner High School entertains with the brightest young stars of their orchestra. 

GCDE is all about engaging the youth to enjoy and understand the great hobby of classic cars and motorcycles. What better way to involve them then to listen to what they have to say, enjoy what they enjoy, and support their efforts. 

You will be amazed at what a wonderful program they present.
