Once in awhile, someone comes along who just naturally makes
everyone feel just a little happier. Doug Rogers was that someone. Kathy and I join all of you in expressing our deepest sympathy to Soon Hee and her children during this most
difficult time. Doug will be profoundly missed.
The fairly mild weather in January did not prepare us for
the arctic cold blasts we have been experiencing recently. I trust that each of
you has stayed warm and safe. I know many of you escaped to warmer places!
Meanwhile, those who remained in town enjoyed free pizza and
pop at the February Membership Meeting, where we gave preliminary acceptance of
the 2015 budget. Our March meeting will include formal approval of the budget
and election of three Directors. We also will have a presentation by Mitch
Frumkin about prototypes and one-offs. I encourage you to bring friends and
family members to this meeting. Remember to arrive early to enjoy dinner and
socializing before the meeting and presentation.
Our driving season starts with the April 18 Tech
Session,this year at the home of Joe and Barb Esdale. Also on April 18,the
ladies will meet at Judy Bruin's home to assemble their hats for the Spring
Tour Derby Party.
Bill and Liz Werth have finalized plans for the May 1-3
Spring Tour and I encourage you to reserve your hotel room now and to send your
Tour reservation form and check to Liz as soon as possible.
Mark your calendars and plan to join us on an outing to have
lunch and see The Eddie Cash Show on June 7. We certainly enjoyed his show last
year and he promises a completely different show this time! Let's fill the
place up!
The calendar is filling in, but there is always room for
more activities, so if you have an idea for an outing, let me know! Here's
hoping we have an early spring so we can begin to enjoy driving our Thunderbirds again. I look forward to seeing each of you at meetings, events and car
shows throughout the year.
Ken Smizinski, President
