After some delay in getting into the meeting room, (seems some people failed to notice that May had five Tuesdays. Our meetings are on the fourth Tuesday, not the last Tuesday) the meeting was called to order at 8:35. President Steve Simmons welcomed everyone and gave highlights from the mailboxjust the usual magazines and notices of other car shows and events. Treasurer's report was posted for all to see. There were no comments or corrections. Minutes of the previous meeting were accepted as published in the Chassis. There was no old or new business to discuss. The upcoming events were discussed, beginning with the Mt Wilson Tour on June 2nd. It was doubtful that there would be any meaningful Wild Flower Tour, as the wild flower crop this year has been virtually none existent. The Henkels are unable to host the traditional July picnic. There was a discussion of alternative dates or sites. The Movie night will be held in August or September. The starting point for the Mt Wilson Tour has been posted on the web site. Meet at Conrad's restaurant, 631 E Foothill in LaCanada/Flintridge. Dave Edgar reported he had an email from Barney Jackson. He said to say "Hi" to the gang. The Henkels were absent, so there was no raffle. After copious sumptuous goodies prepared by Mrs. President, Linda, the guest speaker Mike Simmons gave an orientation preview of the Mt. Wilson facilities. Respectfully submitted, Pete
Thelander,
And Linda amazed us once more with VERY tasty treats and LOTS of them. |
Steve Simmons introduced his father, Mike, guest speaker of the evening.
Phil talks to Mike describing his days at Perkin-Elmer who had made the mirror for the 200 inch Palomar telescope. |
