The August meeting was to order at 7:30 pm, the Pledge of Allegiance was led by temporary acting President Joe Mudrick. President Randy was not in attendance due to his fathers needed medical procedures, and it also being his wedding anniversary. We welcome Pat Gallagher as the newest member of the club this month.
The meeting minutes were read by Bonnie McNeil and approved by
T. Hayes and seconded by Tom Bianculli. Dave Harkins gave a detailed report of the income and expenses for the last month, breaking down the individual costs of the expenses for the 4th of July show. Also income from dealership sponsor donations, which were used toward the shows expenses. Approved by Joe Mudrick and seconded by Dave Bowen.

The total car registration for the 4th of July show was 101 cars, down about 40 cars from previous years. President Randy had mentioned at a previous meeting, about changing the 4th show to a cruise. Changing several things, such as the registration and voting process, and charging a $5 fee for the dash plaques. Discussion varied, and many opinions were voiced. This topic will be up for further consideration in the future. The July Legion cruise had about 85 cars, also down from previous sunny days, and Scott Warburton won the 50/50.
Missing Links cruise is August 19th, hope to see you all there.

Joe Mudrick has shirts and will be making an order again soon, he is also looking in to having more club license plates made. See Joe after the meeting if you are interested in ordering. Scott went over an extensive list of cruises and recommended checking the club website and carcruises.com. Butch Stock was not in attendance, but a reminder to all, the Legion cruise on September 1st is fast approaching.
The CASH RAFFLE will be held RAIN OR SHINE, at that cruise.
Please get your TICKET STUBS and MONEY Turned in as soon as possible. There were 18 members present at the meeting, the 50/50 for $29 was won by Dave Harkins.
Meeting adjourned at 8:17 pm.
Vice President: Bonnie McNeil

Hello folks, another month shot! August was a decent month for us, cruise at the Legion was pretty decent! Missing Links in August was down, had close to 50 before all was said and done, weather report for the day didn’t help, O well! Now coming up we go to the Legion and our raffle in September! We are part of a new event, if the weather pans out this event can be special! Here is the details: I was ask if the club wanted to par take in this event, I said I would help, I want the club to get the advertising! September 19th at the Butler Farm Show grounds, 11 to 5. The Rapid Tappets are to be there and one club from Grove City and one from Kittanning. That’s the run down on that event. Now on to something else, I here I don’t listen to people, I do ask for input and a lot of the time I’m ignored and I know what the outcome is going to be so for the most part I run with what’s in my head!! I try my best for this club and have noticed in the past 3 to 4 years we gained an additional 25 to 30 cars at the Legion cruise, from Scott’s advertising and mine on different cruise sites and Facebook! I feel I have brought good things into the club with the show sponsors the last 4 years, never had that before and this past year it was work and meeting the right people for the connection at Summit. I have brought good things to this club and I have a very good Board to work with! See you all real soon,
thank you and God Bless.
