Welcome!
The car club for New York Long Island and Metro New York Miata Enthusiasts!
The Big Apple Miata Club, located on Long Island, NY, is a group dedicated to the enjoyment and preservation of the Mazda Miata through events, meetings and gatherings. Our goals are to have fun, drive safe and enjoy our cars.
The club members enjoy their Miatas during weekend and day tours throughout the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic Regions. A mainstay of every ride is enjoying the bounty of restaurants located along our routes with the good company of other members. Since the club is mainly involved in touring, we look forward to the ideas that new members can contribute.
We welcome all who share our passion for the Miata and enjoy interesting rides and the company of fellow members. We hope you enjoy your visit and consider joining The Big Apple Miata Club.
President's End of Year 2025 Newsletter
Dear Members,
Dear members and those who are considering membership in our club. During 2025 we finished off the year with our annual Pie Ride that was very well attended along with a stop at a winery and finally lunch in Aquebogue.
Our monthly meetings will be on hiatus until March. However, we will continue to get together for comaradiere and pizza on the second Tuesday of the month at the American Legion Hall in Wantagh. Thanks to Ray Cody for the setup and pizza order every month.
We had our Christmas Party at the Legion Hall this past December and it was a great success. The food was great and plentiful. Ray and Linda Cody have once again offered to host our BAMC picnic at their son Tim's home in Manorville in July. Tim is a DJ by trade and entertained us throughout the party last year. And the setting is absolutely beautiful.
A recap of other events for 2025 included a trip to Gloucesster and Rockport Massachusetts, some members attended Miata Con at Limerock, Connecticut and we visited the Shoreline Trolley Museum and took a boat ride around Connecticut's Thimble Islands.
As a reminder, please mail in your dues made payable to BAMC. Mail to Leon Kissag at 45-55 193rd St, Flushing, NY. 11358. Thank you.
On a sad note, we lost our good friend and sponsor John Vergara. John was the owner of Wantagh Mazda since about 1979. His son Vincent continues the legacy.
Thanks to all of you for your continued support. See all of you at the next meeting.
