Amelia Island Concours (2004) – Bobby Unser to be Honored

Three-time Indy winner Bobby Unser will serve as honorary chairman of the 9th annual Amelia Island Concours to be held March 14, 2004, on the grounds of The Ritz-Carlton in Amelia Island, Florida.

Unser will serve as grand marshal in the vintage-car procession departing from the Ritz driveway on Friday morning and as keynote speaker at the Saturday night black-tie dinner. He will enter Sundayโ€™s show field at approximately 9:30 a.m. in one of his Indy cars and will be available to meet fans throughout the day until the show ends at 5:00 p.m.

According to Amelia Island Concours Founder/Chairman Bill Warner, โ€œThereโ€™s nothing stand offish about Bobby. Heโ€™s very approachable and loves chatting with the fans, but he especially enjoys talking with the children. If youโ€™ve always wanted to bring the family to the Amelia Island Concours, then 2004โ€”the Year of Bobby Unserโ€”is the time to come.โ€
