For those that came early, we all stood in awe as Linda unpacked her many packages of goodies. She truly astonishes us each month with the amazing refreshments she brings. Steve may never be voted out of the position of President so we don't have to give up Linda. Linda not only prepares goodies for the break but before meeting delights as well. And Steve couldn't even be at the meeting this month due to work. Three cheers for Linda. With Steve gone and our VP not making it either Ron Simon volunteered to lead us once more and began the meeting at 8:15. We jumped to the mail bag of usual magazines and newsletters. Minutes of the last meeting were approved as printed in the Midget Chassis. About this time Pete & Fran Thelander straggled in. They said traffic was a mess out there as the wind had blown down some power lines over the freeway. George Kershaw was also frazzled by the congestion and came in about 15 minutes later We are glad they were safe. Next up the Treasurer indicated that all finances were in order and that the full report was posted on the wall for those interested in the particulars. Joyce also indicated we received two more members who signed up tonight. Lee Ashenfelter returned after being away. He still has his father's TC. And Charles Duvall signed up his neighbor Bill Risser. Bill has owned his TC for over 30 years and he and Charles have come to several of our recent meetings. Bill was out of town but Charles signed him up. We welcomed the additions with applause. We also welcomed Mike Rizenman who runs Valley Wire Wheel who was our excellent guest speaker for the night. George Kershaw indicated that our April meeting program will be the traditional Hobby Night. It constantly amazes us on what else our members are into besides TCs. Be there and be prepared to be surprised and amazed. Gene Olson was unable to attend but Ron read off our future
events. A Big Gawking House tour on March 31, followed by a Getty
Villa tour on April 22. We also have the combined VMG/TCMG tour
to the Mercedes-Benz Center on May 12. Wildflowers were still
iffy so no commitment on doing that yet. Other non club sponsored
events include the San Diego Rolling British Car Day on April
15, the Moss Buttonwillow races May 5-6, and the LA Concours
on June 3. The GoF West auction committee asked us for a contribution. We discussed it and voted on spending $100. Tony would be in charge of picking out an item(s) and George Kershaw volunteered to transport the items to GoF. The business part of the meeting was adjourned as the aromas of Linda refreshments were getting to us. Hip, Hip, Hooray for Linda. She really treats us well. Respectfully submitted by, David
Edgar for Fran. |
