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 April 23rd. The evening’s program will be announced shortly.
Note that anyone making a simulated journey to the meeting in a TC by driving a minimum of 10 miles on the day of the meeting will receive a point toward the Sargent Award.
March recap: 30 members attended our March meeting on Zoom. Four TCs were driven a simulated 10 miles by Edgar, Lemieux, S. Simmons and St. Clair. Thanks to Pete Thelander for his presentation on TF restoration and modification.

Monthly Events
The Wildflower Tour returns for 2024! Recent storms have delayed growth but we are watching the bloom forecast closely and will set a date as soon as we can. Best guess is mid-April. Tentatively we are planning on Sunday, April 14th.
Our adventure will take us on a 1-hour drive along scenic roads to the California Poppy Reserves in Lancaster. After touring the sprawling fields of flowers, we will picnic at a nearby location.
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!
Monthly DIY Tours
Our Winter DIY tour has ended. The next one will be announced shortly.
