Breaking News
IT IS OFFICIAL!
The 62nd Studebaker Drivers Club International Meet will be held in
Waxahachie, Texas,
September 23rd through 26th of 2026!
The North Texas Chapter of the Studebaker Drivers Club is proud to announce the Waxahachie Civic center as the site for our ’26 International meet.
Having the location fixed opens the door to begin making concrete plans for, and in support of, all the other activities necessary to actually produce the meet.
It also opens the door for finding the manpower to carry out all the plans and events. Since there are only two active chapters of SDC in Texas, we are going to need a lot of help.
We know there are a lot of Studebaker owners in Texas that are not members of either of the active SDC chapters. Thankfully, we were able to secure a list of all SDC members living in Texas. After scrubbing that list to remove the active members of North Texas and Central Texas chapters, we now have a email contact list for 107 members. We have sent them a notice of the upcoming 2026 International Meet and asked them to consider lending a hand so we can be sure that the meet will be something Texas can be proud of.
At the same time, now would be a good time for each chapter member to begin considering how you can help in producing a Texas size meeting. Here is just a beginning list of functions that will need support:
Accounting
& Bill Payment
E marketing
& advertising
Print Materials
(Brochures/etc.)
Keepsakes
(Tees/Caps/etc.)
Website
Registration
Meet & Greet
Goody Bags
Hospitality Room
Banquets & Events
Live Auction
Seminars
Safety & Security
Tours (number?)
Swap Meet
Parking Lot Plans
Car Display/Show(s)
Judging
Trophies

Many of you were involved in the 1998 meet or have attended many national meets where you found something special about the production. If that is the case, feel free to make suggestions. Be thinking about how you can contribute to one or more of the functions. To volunteer, make a suggestion, or ask questions, please contact Ray Chartrand directly at chartrain@gmail
