Pizza Party- Meeting
On Thursday, February 9th, 38 CTCC club members enjoyed an evening of pizza at Jake's Pizza in Mt. Prospect. Always a popular event as it kicks off the car season. It gives everyone a chance to catch up on car talk and gives the feeling that spring is indeed around the corner so that soon we can pull off the dust covers from our sleeping Birds! Always delicious pizza and a great evening. New member Andy Romaniecki was introduced. Personal care items were also donated by members for the Food Pantry.
Doug Rogers presented the budget for 2012 club year and this will be voted on at the next regular meeting on March 8th. Please note that the new meeting place is Mr. Beef & Pizza at Elmhurst and Algonquin Roads Mt. Prospect.
At the March 8th meeting we will have the election of new directors and preview highlights of the upcoming year. Board members also modeled the new club shirts that will be available to order in the coming months. Tom Bruin is heading up the ordering. They include a denim shirt, polo shirts, front half zipper sweat shirts and a pull over hoodie. All embroidered with the TBird emblem and your individual name.
Prez. Pete spoke briefly about the possibility of a 2014 National Tbird Convention observing the TBird 60th Anniversary. A committee is being formed to explore this event. In addition, also mentioned was the convention coming up in August in Memphis. Ken Smizinski spoke on the Spring Tour to Hannibal and urged everyone attending to get in your hotel reservations.
