The Westerly-Pawcatuck Region was chartered with the AACA to help promote the enjoyment and preservation of antique automobiles in the Eastern Connecticut and Rhode Island area. Monthly meetings are held as noted throughout the year. Our meetings are open to all. Visitors and prospective members are encouraged to attend. Ownership of an automobile is NOT REQUIRED, although membership in the national organization (Antique Automobile Club of America) is a requirement for membership in the Region.

Club Activities Never Slow Down!
Members own both domestic and foreign makes representing more than 80 years of the automobile in America. We attend cruise nights, car shows, parades and other automobile-related activities. Annually we schedule several weekend trips to out of state shows in New England and New York and we spend a full week at Hershey, PA every fall. Meetings feature several speakers each year and technical help is always available to members through our Gas Lighters Program. President's Message for 2017 - Read Bob's poignant summary of the 2017 season!
Klingberg was a great event for our club. We had a total of 9 cars making the nearly 80-mile trek to New Britain, CT. Check out all the neat photos in our Gallery Section.
AACA M.A.P. Award - Apply Now! There is an award that many WPRAACA members can easily qualify for just because they are so active. Get all the details of the Mileage Award Program in our BLOG section now!
Now is the Time to Join ! If you have never before been a member of the AACA we may have some free AACA memberships available to you. Please inquire. Also, it is possible for new members to join with a 1/2 year AACA membership. Do IT NOW for maximum benefits. Steve Rossi Returns - June 26th !Steve Rossi was a big hit when he visited us last year. We have been fortunate to convince him to make a return engagement. Steve is an automotive expert and monthly contributor to "Antique Automobile" magazine as well as several other automotive publications. Steve's lectures are always thoughtful and informative. He will discuss automotive myths and misconceptions at our June meeting. Please make every effort to attend and offer Steve a warm welcome.
