In 1969 a group of car enthusiasts in Greenwood, South Carolina decided to meet on a regular basis to discuss restoration of their old cars. They were first recognized as a Chapter. When enough members joined they applied for membership into the National Antique Automobile Club of America as the Emerald City Region. A Certificate of Charter was issued on February 4, 1971.
The Emerald City Region's purpose is to perpetuate the memories of the pioneer days of automobiling by encouraging the preservation and collection of Antique Automobiles.
