December 8th

RAINOUT! However 14 Cruisers, even 3 with Cars made it to the "Sonic" this little get together lasted until 8:00PM anyway. It gave "Mustang Mike" and the ones that were out tonight to help Tony, our new events director, sketch out a few things for next years calendar.

Linda and I were the first to arrive, followed by Trevor, oh yeah Bill & Virginia brought him out in the old Dodge. Ed & Evelyn ventured out their muddy road a little later. Tony & Sharon came about 6;30. Henry had his Baja VW parked under the canopy as well. Jerry & Judy Lane stopped by to "Give a little" to the kids. Don Petty stopped by for a while and chatted a bit. For a non Cruise there were still a few "Die Hards" that at least came out to get the newsletter.

Whenever we have a rainout you should be able to find Mike, Linda or myself under the canopy at "Sonic" at least until 6:00PM.

It was decided, because of the lateness and tonight's Rainout that any monies collected for the "Kids" would be used to buy a TV for the facility. The more we collect next week the larger the screen.

Next year we worked out a few "Thursday Nite" events.

February 9th: will be the Valentines Day Cruiser and "Sweets" Bake Sale, Monies collected will go towards future events and the Annual Cruise-In, currently slated for late Sept. Early October, dates to follow as soon as we get confirmation from Heritage Park.

April 27th: "Spring Thing" a covered dish, bake sale, cookout. Details to follow.

Late September early October" 5th and 6th Annual Cruise-In and car show. Details to follow. Monies to be donated to a Charity that will be determined at a later date. We are working on a new charity to get involved with.

October 26th: Annual Halloween Cruise.

On a side note, Tony DeBlasio became another "Crusin' Ham" he passed his examination for Technician Class Amateur Radio operator last night. Congratulations, Tony!

So there are a few things for all of us to do on a Thursday Nite, No Give aways - No 50/50 - No Trivia contest and no new "Cruiser of the Week". Sure hope next week is a little dryer.

See you at Old Town Saturday Nite.
