PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE
So far, this winter has been more like spring with a few winter days thrown in , making it much easier to get to meetings and more chance for antique car lovers to use their classic car all winter long. Of course if you live in upstate NY or NE , things may seem like endless winter. We had a #10 day for our annual dinner meeting and first meeting of the new year. The venue at the Publik House was perfect: Good food and a really nice private room with a working fireplace made the meeting pleasant. We had a decent attendance of 15 members, including our newest, Mike Zeoli from Sunderland, Mass. Thanks for setting this up go to Jane Palmer.
We accomplished a lot of annual meeting details. The entire agenda is detailed in the minutes. We set up interesting and different meetings for the first half of 2020 , and kept a couple of the old favorites. Thanks to all present for the great participation and your volunteering to take on some projects.
I have reviewed the National POC constitution that is current. It matches our current by-laws, as required, but the National officers are planning on revising it this year. I suggest we not change our bylaws at this time.
Our purpose/mission statement must not contradict the national club statement, The “about” statement that is on our web site matches the one on our brochure and does not contradict the National by-laws. It sounds like what we want . We will discuss it at the next meeting.
REMINDERS;
1. 3 members have not renewed.
2. Don Palmer will advertise your 4-sale items on the web. Send him the info.
If you have a story about your car, it needs telling. Maybe a trip with problems, a restoration, current problems , or family ties that others would like to hear. Send them to me or Don Palmer or Lanny K.
MARCH 15th meeting = The Whitman’s in Hancock, MA, then to IOKA farm for maple brunch.
APRIL 19th = Jane is working on a trip to Springfield, MA. , With free parking, a free tour bus to 5 local museums, and a nice lunch. Stay tuned.
