WELCOME

Welcome to the Ferndale c oncours on m ain se P tem B er 8-12, 2022

Presented by theFerndale Chamber of Commerce & Humboldt Lodging Alliance Concours d’Elegance literally means a ‘competition of elegance’ and refers to gatherings that date back to 17th century France when French aristocracy paraded their horse-drawn carriages in the parks of Paris. Over time, carriages became horseless, and the gatherings became a competition among motorcar owners to be judged by the appearance of their automobiles.

A modern day Concours is a competition for pre-1998 cars presented in showroom condition, the same as when they left the factory. Trained judges examine the vehicles thoroughly and rate each and every component. Only those vehicles that are judged perfect (or nearly so) in every way are considered eligible for trophy class.

The Sports Car Club of America (SCCA), the entity that sanctions and judges Concours events, has approved a special category for the Victorian Village of Ferndale. This new class of Concours is called Concours on the Avenue. It allows the car judging on Ferndale’s historic Main Street rather than on lawn, as prescribed for traditional Concours events such as Pebble Beach and Hillsborough. We anticipate 100 vehicles and 20-24 judges for this prestigious event.

SCCA INTRODUCTION

sPoRTs caR cluB oF aMeRica (scca ) was founded in 1944 and now has membership of 67,500. SCCA’s San Francisco Region (SFR) followed in 1948, boasts about 3,400 members, and encompasses the geographic area from and including Fresno to the Oregon border. Although SCCA’s focus has always been on racing, sanctioning road races throughout the country, SFR has also sanctioned Concours d’Elegance - competitions of elegance – since 1952. Concours are exhibits of collector automobiles judged on their quality of restoration to original and authentic, as well as their condition, preparation and operation.

SCCA provides judges, field crew and scorers at each SCCA-sanctioned concours. All judges are volunteers and deemed expert on specific marques (manufacturers).

All judged automobiles should be, essentially, as they appeared on the showroom floor. Each auto is judged beginning with 100 points. Points are then deducted for deviations from original, imperfections, poor preparation, etc. The highest three pointfinishers in each class are awarded trophies. But, for an automobile to win its class, it must score at least 80 points; second place requires at least 70 points; third place at least 60 points. SCCA only judges vehicles at least 25-years old.

SFR-SCCA is actively seeking new judges, field crew and scoring assistants. If you are interested, please contact Chief-of-Concours Jim Perell at: japerell@icloud.com.

r ed W ood m emorial h os P ital Foundation

Partners Investing in a Healthy Community

The mission of Redwood Memorial Hospital Foundation is to develop and manage all resources and assets of the Foundation in support of Redwood Memorial Hospital’s

health care mission and goals. The Foundation promotes participation in developing and maintaining a positive relationship between our community, health care providers and Redwood Memorial Hospital.

The Redwood Memorial Foundation would like to thank the Ferndale Concours on Main and their sponsors, The Ferndale Chamber of Commerce and the Humboldt Lodg ing Alliance, for designating a portion of their proceeds from their event to the hospital foundation.

The Redwood Memorial Foundation (RMF) was estab lished in 1981 after a group of Eel River community resi dents joined together to establish a philanthropic organiza tion benefiting Redwood Memorial Hospital.

The Redwood Memorial Foundation is committed to ensuring that Eel River Valley residents continue to have access to the best available health care services. The founda tion works to support the development of contributions and increase the community’s awareness of opportunities for involvement with the hospital. Funds raised are dedicated to primary and core program needs, health education, and support for new programs.

In recent years, donations have helped fund the purchase of digital mammography equipment, digital X-ray equip ment, a state-of-the-art 32-slice CT Scanner, Surgical Suite upgrades, cutting-edge orthopedic surgical equipment, and more.

Thank you for supporting better health in the Eel River Valley.

HONORARY JUDGES

Supervisor Rex Bohn was raised in Eureka from the age of 5. There is no doubt that Hum boldt County is home. Supervisor Bohn won the election in the primary of June 2012 against his opponents by an overwhelming majority. He was then appointed by the Governor Jerry Brown in July 2012 to fill the seat of former Supervisor Jimmy Smith who retired early because of ongoing health issues. Supervisor Bohn recently won his second term for the First District. He was also recently elected 2nd Vice Chair to the Rural Counties Representatives of Califor nia which is an organization that champions policies on behalf of California’s rural counties

Supervisor Bohn’s qualifications for being an honorary judge for the Ferndale Concourse on Main include projects such as restoring a 1959 MGA, a 1956 Chevy Bel Air, a 1949 Willy’s jeep, and a 1972 Ford Bronco.

Dave Buchanan , a retired business CEO, former President of The Candy Store car club in Burlingame, and a serious ‘car guy,’ spends as much time racing, collecting, and restoring vintage cars as time in the day permits. Dave recently helped form and run the successful debut of the first annual Alameda Concours. Dave’s collectible cars have appeared at Villa D’Este Concorso in Lake Como, Italy, the Hillsborough Concours, and won Best in Show at the origi nal Palo Alto Concours, among other awards. Dave usually races at Sonoma Raceway, Laguna Seca, and Thunderhill, and has raced at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Road America, Wisconsin, Mexico’s La Carrera Panamericana, in the Virginia City Hill Climb, and Circuit Mont Treblanc in Quebec. Whether racing his ’56 Alfa Romeo Spider, his ’96 Ferrari Chal lenge car, or his ’58 Chrysler New Yorker, Dave loves the challenge of mastering the turns and corners of each track or road.

lowell Daniels and his wife, Jenny Oaks, purchased the Victorian Inn in 1999, and created the boutique bed and breakfast hotel it is now, in Ferndale, California. He is a Certified Gem ologist Appraiser and owner of Silva’s Fine Jewelry in Ferndale, located in the lobby area of the Victorian Inn. The VI Restaurant, offering fine dining and a full bar within the Victorian Inn, and Redwood Suites, also in Ferndale, are two more of Lowell and Jenny’s current enterprises.

Lowell is currently a member and past Chairman of the Board of Directors of the California Association of Bed & Breakfast Inns; a former member of the Board of Directors of the California Hotel & Lodging Association; a member and former President of the Board of Directors of the Humboldt County Convention & Visitors Bureau; a member of the Board of Directors of the Humboldt Lodging Alliance; past President of the Ingomar Club (Carson Mansion), Eureka.

While living in Sutter Creek, Lowell was a Shriner and volunteered at the Shriners Con cours d’Elegance in the Sacramento area. He is also the past proud owner of a 1927 Marmon.

A native Ferndalean, Don h in D ley is a retired financial advisor and he puts this experience to work for Ferndale through his involvement in many community projects. Currently serving as Mayor, Don has previously served on the Ferndale City Council and is honored to welcome you to his home town for the inaugural Ferndale Concours on Main.

VICTORIAN VILLAGE OF FERNDALE

Although it’s been suggested that the Victorian village is a fairytale setting, Ferndale is a working, all-American town that takes pride in its beautiful community and cultural heritage. You will find a town where the old way of life has not been compromised. The splendid buildings have been carefully restored, embellished with lovingly tended gardens, and people take the time to smile a friendly greeting.

In the late 1800s Ferndale was an agricultural and transportation center, a melting pot for Scandinavian, Swiss-Italian, and Portuguese immigrants. The Main Street Historic District is on the National Register and the entire village is California Historical Landmark No. 883.

There’s nothing stodgy in this small town, though; Ferndale loves to have fun! The cradle of the wild and wacky Kinetic Sculpture Race, Ferndale continues to host the finish of this off-beat art event, now a three-day contest. The village is home to many colorful events and festivals, including the Foggy Bottom Milk Run, Tour of the Unknown Coast bicycle run, Portuguese Holy Ghost Celebration, the Humboldt County Fair, Bargain Lovers’ Weekend, Christmas Lighted Tractor Parade, and now Ferndale Concours on Main!

Explore the old-fashioned mercantiles, antique stores, art galleries, and specialty shops, hear the ringing of the blacksmith’s hammer, and talk with the friendly people. Watch fresh candy being dipped by hand to whet your appetite for a fine dinner and an evening of theatre. Resting by the fire in your elegant bed and breakfast inn, think about tomorrow: a walk along nearby coastline, a nature hike in Russ Park (the 110-acre forest bird sanctuary), a boat tour of the Eel River Delta, a visit to the museum, a tour of Fern Cottage, a drive to the Lost Coast, a visit to the redwoods, a leisurely day filled with old-fashioned service and friendly faces.

Nestled between the two redwood forests in a thriving dairy community, you may discover Northern California’s best-kept secret, The Victorian Village of Ferndale. Sunsetmagazine confirms, “you can immerse yourself in Ferndale’s Victorian spirit.”
