TC Provenance List Being Updated and Modernized by TCMG
The well known TC Provenance List was created by TC owner Bob Stein well over a decade ago. Steve Simmons has assisted with data submissions and updates for the past few years but the list has grown too large to manage by hand. TC Motoring Guild has jumped in to help update, modernize and maintain the list. Two of our members, Mike Simmons and Steve Simmons are currently working to convert years of hand typed notes into a sorted and organized database of TC car numbers, owner names, locations and historical data. The project will take a tremendous amount of man hours but the end result will be a fully modern and searchable database, hosted on the TCMG website. You can see the old hand-typed Provenance List HERE until the new version is completed.
Our next monthly meeting will be held on Zoom on May 28th. The evening’s program will be announced shortly.
April recap: 27 members attended our April meeting on Zoom. 7 TCs were driven a simulated journey to the meeting by Caccavo, Edgar, Lemieux, Lynge, S Simmons, Spiegel and Zucca. Thanks to Joyce Edgar for her presentation on GoF West.

Monthly Events
Due to a lack of blooms this year, the Wildflower Tour on April 14 was canceled. As a substitute for the Wildflower Tour, we will be holding a Captive Flower Tour in its place. Join us on Saturday, April 27 for a Springtime driving tour and visit to Descanso Gardens in La Cañada Flintridge. The botanical garden sits on 150 acres of cultivated and wild land nestled into a natural bowl by surrounding mountains. There are many paths and trails to explore, verdant woodlands, lush gardens, and colorful native flowers. Members are encouraged to purchase tickets in advance to make entrance easier when we arrive (see below).During our driving tour to the Gardens, we will be visiting a very special place in TCMG history that the group hasn’t seen in 70 years! Bring your TC for the chance to be in a group photo commemorating our visit.
The driving tour will begin from the same location as our March tour at 300 Harvey Dr, Glendale, CA 91206 (parking lot next door to In-N-Out Burger). Meet at 8:30 AM for tire kicking, and roll out at 9:00 AM for a 30-minute driving tour through Glendale and La Crescenta to the gardens.
DESCANSO GARDENS TICKET INFO: Tickets to the gardens are $15 adults / $11 Seniors / $5 Children. To purchase, CLICK HERE. Be sure to select April 27 and an entry time of 10:00 AM or earlier. Lunch will follow the event.
March recap: 14 members with five TCs participated in our March tour and picnic. Special thanks to Gene and Patti Olson for hosting the club at their home!
