Our meetings have become so world famous that we even had the
shuttle astronauts fly over for it. George Kershaw
mentioned that both the space station followed by the shuttle
would be visible overhead at 8:05 and so many of us trekked outside
to view it. Sure enough, from out of the southern sky came a
white speck followed by a second white fleck in the sky. Both
disappeared to the north after a couple minutes. That was the
first time I had ever seen either in the sky live. Thanks George
for cluing us in.
So we wandered back in and our
illustrious president, Dave
Coleman, got our meeting
started at 8:11. We approved the minutes of the last meeting
as printed in the March Midget Chassis.
Joyce
Edgar, our treasurer,
reported we are still solvent. Treasurer's report with details
are posted on the wall for inspection for those that want to
see details. She also reported we currently have 101 members
renewed for 2008. Directory will be assembled and mailed out
soon.
Usual items were in our mail box,
Safety Fast, other magazines plus the AAR newsletter. Items are
available for anyone to look at, and or take.
Only item brought up in Old Business
was the GoF auction donation. Cindy Henkels
already has purchased a couple items and is working on several
more.
As far as New Business, George
mentioned Fran
Thelander had arthoscopic
knee work done last week and is doing well.
Tour reports began with the recent
Snow Tour. Dreary weather at the start, but once up on the mountain
it turned out to be WONDERFUL and the small band in the group
had a fabulous time building a little snowman and then placing
it onto Gene
Olson's TC bonnet. Future
wildflower tour was mentioned. Reports of many flowers being
visible were reported so should have flowers to see. However,
Joe mentioned there are hardly any at our usual location. Should
a tour take place, April 27 was thought to be a good time. Need
to see what future rains bring. Also mentioned was that the Palm
Springs Weekend had been postponed.
Lloyd
Hendrickson invited our
Guild members to tag along on his VMG tour to the Riverside Automotive
Museum on April 19. And George mentioned the VMG Hollywood Hills
tour on May 17 is open as usual to our members as well.
Susie
Coleman is looking for
places to hold the Holiday Party. Dec 7 seems to be best to avoid
conflicting with the VMG and ARR parties so are aiming for that
date. The Hotel Huntington Beach seems to be the favored spot
so far.
Your humble
TCMG Secretary,
