I received the following email from Ken Matthews concerning what has always been the Windham Walmart Car Show:
"Well as you have already reported on Hotkarz.com Wal-Mart's corporate office has sent a ruling to ALL WalMart locations that their respective parking lots are off limits to outside organizations that use the areas for car shows and many other fund raising projects. I have been working closely with the Windham, Maine store trying to get an exception to the policy and that decision has not been favorable. Maybe you could allow me to address your many readers to let them know what is happening.
"After several months of trying to secure another location that can offer the same exposure to the public and provide enough room for 200 to 300 show cars plus spectator parking, I have not been able to find a place that fits the criteria. So, it is with deep regret that I must cancel the 2009 Car Show scheduled for September 26, 2009 at the Windham, Me. WalMart".
"All of the Class Sponsors and the Flyer Sponsors will receive a full refund along with my sincere "Thank You" for supporting our efforts. I am pleased to announce that the American Legion "Legacy Scholarship Foundation" will receive a $1,000.00 donation as a result of our efforts".
"Thank You" to everyone that said they would help with the show, maybe another time..............
Regards,
Ken Matthews
