Annual Picnic Meeting at Henkels'

Thanks to Tony & Cindy Henkels for opening their home and garage and especially for Cindy's wonderful desserts. But what happened to all the TCs that usually show up at the picnic? Simmons brought their TC as did the Edgars for a total of only TWO TCs.

The Edgars ended up pushing their TC into the driveway after Tony towed them in the last mile due to what turned out to be a bad distributor rotor. New rotor fixed the problem and they made it home to San Diego without incident.

Before dinner, we caught up with each other's lives. Ron Toth, David McCanne and Lloyd Hendrickson talk it up.

MINUTES OF THE MEETING

Our meeting this month took place at the Henkel's home during our annual picnic event. The meeting was eventually called to order despite the rowdy crowd enjoying the food and drink.

After the usual mail was sorted through, Joyce Edgar gave her treasurer's report. As of the meeting, the club has $6,732 in the bank with $4,308 not allocated.

Lloyd Hendrickson reviewed the program schedule for future meetings. August will feature a talk on T-Series cars by the people from Kavanaugh Motors. September is the much anticipated Movie Night held by the Simons. October is of course the Halloween Pot Luck Party and November is still open. Lloyd also mentioned that the upcoming programs are kept up to date on the TC Motoring Guild Web Site.

Ron Simon reported on upcoming events in Gene Olsen's place, who was out of the country. The event for October will be the 50th MGTC / ARR Conclave in Morro Bay. The club is in talks with Phil Frank to design T-Shirts commemorating the event.

With the end of old business, we moved to new business. With no new business to discuss, we ended business altogether and called on Pete Thelander to give a brief report on GoF West. Pete spoke of the caravans to and from the event, the many activities held over the five days in Oregon, and of all the TCMG members who placed in the car shows and events.

Ron then asked if there was any more business to discuss, and finding only monkey business offered to him, he adjourned the meeting.

Ernie and Elizabeth Page with son Michael stayed in the states after the GoF long enough to be able to make our picnic and meeting. They left the next day for Scotland.
