Rendezvous 30 – Rainville
This year is the 50th anniversary of Club T MG and Rendezvous 30!
We will take our celebration to Hood River, at the Columbia Gorge Hotel and Spa, nestled in the heart of the majestic Columbia River Gorge. It was built in 1921 by Simon Benson, who had just completed the world’s most beautiful road; the historic Columbia Gorge Scenic Highway. Notable visitors in the early years included Presidents Roosevelt and Coolidge, actresses Clara Bow, Myrna Loy, Jane Powell, and Shirley Temple. The Hotel is rumored to have been a favorite hideaway for Rudolph Valentino, after whom the Valentino Lounge is named.
Join us as we return to the Gorge where the club’s very first Rendezvous took place.
Join in some fun and download the MG TC and MGB Roadster cut-outs. Paint the cars with color pencils, markers or using any method you choose, put them together, and bring them to Rendezvous!
