Alumni Social & VIP Tour at the AACA Museum
Antique Automobile Club of America Museum, Hershey

Spend an afternoon with Ship and enjoy an Alumni Social and VIP Tour at the Antique Automobile Club of America Museum in Hershey.

Join us in the ‘Regions and Chapters Room’ where you’ll enjoy a variety of hors d’oeuvres and soft beverages while enjoying the company of friends and fellow Ship Alumni.

Our group will then enjoy the benefits of a VIP Tour through the museum’s world class collection of antique automobiles with our own Bill Rothermel, Class of 1980.  Bill's knowledge will make the exhibits come to life with his colorful commentary as he shares the relevance of the time period as it pertains to the unique exhibits. Bill will focus his tour on the museum's storage facility-located behind the museum, the Schmidt Building, to highlight behind the scenes knowledge!

Limited-time special exhibits during our Ship tour include: Mustangs: Six Generations of America’s Favorite Pony Car; International Thunderbird Club Exhibit; and the iconic Ferrari from “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off”.

The museum is located at 161 Museum Dr., off Route 39 with free on-site parking.
