THE SAAB OWNERS CONVENTION

This weekend was The Annual Saab owners Convention down in Fort Deven's MA. It was a beautiful weekend for the show. We drove down in our prize 1988 SIS Saab convertible(a classic). The sun was shining, the weather was perfect and the drive couldn't have been a more beautiful drive.
When we arrived we were greeted by many friends(Kyle and Tim's fiends). We were glad to see them. We parked the car and got out to visit with many people. As we were walking around we noticed the boys banner. It is for The Crisman Brothers Award. We went over to it, to find more friends and the boys trophy. We decided to pull the car(which by the way was Kyle's dream car) near the banner and put the trophy and the boys pictures on the back of the car. It was a perfect spot to display it. We stayed until about 2:00PM and than decided to head home. We had to be back for the dinner at 7:00 to present the boys award after dinner.
Kyle and Tim's award was established in memory of them by Saabnet and the Saab convention. The award is a perpetual award that goes around with the show all over the country every year. Next year the convention will be in Colorado. The award goes to any 21 or under that enters their car in the show. They have to have the love, passion and just plain be nuts over Saabs. Kyle was very passionate about his Saabs. By the time he was 18 he was already on his third Saab. He loved everything about the cars and Tim was following right behind him. Kyle made friends from all over the world. We have been lucky enough to have met a lot of them.
At the awards dinner last night we presented the top five winners. The first place winner had the passion and love for his car. It just reminds me so much of our boys and makes you miss them so much. I feel really good when I am around these young men because it makes me feel closer to my boys.
In the banquet room we set up a table where they hung the boys banner and put the boys pictures on it. It is such a nice tribute to Kyle and Tim. This way people that didn't know them and might not be familiar with what happen, can get to know a little about them and see who they were.
We are very proud that Saabnet and Saab does this for us. It is such an honor to honor our boys at such an event.
Thank you to all.
