Youth News – Model A Restorers Club

New Youth Coordinator Emily Ellway

Hello, everyone! My name is Emily Ellway , and I am the Model A Restorers Club’s new Youth Coordinator. I am very excited to take on the position, having grown up in this amazing environment! As far as my love for Model A’s go, it is a strong love, built on a sturdy foundation. I have been attending MARC National Meets since before I was even born with my first meet being in Cincinnati in 2001! I grew up in my parents’ (Kevin & Teresa Ellway) 1929 Roadster Pickup, and it will always have a special place

in my heart. Growing up, I enjoyed going to the summer meets and seeing all of our friend s, participating in the chassis rebuild and Hubley race , and enjoying all the other children’s activities! I also spent many years helping my mom in touring class judging, which I really enjoyed. The meet has always been one of my favorite parts of summer because it is my way of seeing our country one state at a time, and I am so excited to see you all at the National 2021 Meet in Oshkosh!

As far as introducing myself personally, I am Ohio born and raised. I would describe myself as being determined , outgoing and adventurous. I have just entered my first year studying at Cleveland State University in the hopes of pursuing a career in the pediatric medical field someday. I graduated from high school this past May as class president and president of the National Honor Society, and I spent my free time working a part-time job and volunteering around town. I also spent a semester of my sophomore year studying abroad in Argentina, which was an amazing opportunity! I enjoyed high school and growing up around cars of all ages , and I am looking forward to the next chapter in my life. I am very excited knowing that the next chapter includes continuing to be a part of MARC, and I look forward to spending time encouraging our youth to enjoy this amazing organization with all it has to offer! If you have any questions , comments or advice, please reach out to me at YouthCoordinator@Model-A-Ford.org. I am truly excited to start in this position, and see you all soon!
