On Sunday, August 2, 2026(10:00 AM - 3:00 PM) we will be having our 2st Annual FREE Virginia/SCNA - SAAB Meet & Greet Fall Event at the magnificent 751 acre private Blue Ridge School campus, which is nestled at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains and encompassed by breathtaking 360º mountain views. Located in St. George(Dyke), VA, the grounds are simply awe-inspiring with; a serene lake, several ponds and glistening streams, a gun range, fishing, tennis and basketball courts and 15 miles of scenic biking and hiking trails. Rich in history, many of the buildings were designed by the prolific architect, Ralph Adams Cram and 2 of the campus' structures have been listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Par-for-the-course, there will be a limited amount of SAAB swag on hand to purchase the day of the event, so place your orders early. 

We will once again have our time-honored formal program, which will take place in the 22,000 sf Indoor Field House, at the host site, featuring a renowned SAAB historian guest speaker and we will also have several SAAB Master Techs on hand to answer any of your SAAB related mechanical questions.

After dinner the VIPs will be treated to a Tour, which will include a peek into the office of our weekend host, who made this venue available to us. Beyond the beautiful architecture and interesting furnishings, this office also houses some very rare and sought-after SAAB memorabilia that has been collected from all over the world.
