Welcome!

My name is Danny and I'm the President of the Sterling British Motoring Society (SBMS) car club. I appreciate your interest in our club and I thank you for visiting our website.

Our club has grown and become very active since its inception. In 2004 the club started a monthly club drive. These drives are scheduled every third (3rd) Saturday of the month, starting in April and running through November rain or shine.

Some members attend car shows, though the majority of us just enjoy driving our Little British Cars. On occasion a group of members will attend a car show, generally in the Cincinnati or Louisville areas. Additionally, the club has become involved in the annual Keeneland Concours d'Elegance, which is becoming one of Kentucky's premier car shows. The event is held at Keeneland each year and all proceeds benefit the Kentucky Children's Hospital.

The Club has only one fund raising effort each year, and it's pretty much a big party. Our event is called the "Bluegrass British Bash" and it is a three day event that is always held locally in Lexington, KY, during the weekend of the famous Kentucky Derby. We get attendees from all over the mid-west and as far away as Florida and Canada.

Other annual events include the fish fry in September, usually held the first Saturday after Labor Day, and the Christmas dinner in December.

The Club meets on the first Tuesday of the month at various locations around the area and the locations are either discussed at a previous meeting or announced via email.

One of the Club members has taken the responsibility for the web site and has done a great job. Dues are Twenty ($20.00) per year for a family membership. Membership includes two name badges and a subscription to the British Marque newspaper. This newspaper contains newsletters from British car clubs all across the Eastern U.S.

Though the club is active and does a lot, the best part of the Club is its members. The Club has been blessed with a super group of folks and all are engaged and ready to contribute. We pride ourselves on the absence of formality and by-laws, and appreciate that we simply want to enjoy each other's company and the common interest of driving our cars.

E-mails are sent out to keep Club members informed of Club events and the members. If you would like to receive our e-mails for a while to check us out please let me know.

I hope you will consider membership and I invite you to attend a Club meeting and/or one of our monthly drives. I would encourage you to mark your calendar for our annual Bluegrass British Bash event in May.

Shoot me an e-mail or give me a call if you have any questions.
