Oh the places you’ll go… Dr Seuss
The new year is here and it’s time to start thinking about places to go and things to do with our club.
Where do you like to travel in your Mustang…..to some interesting museums? up the coast for a day trip?
down the highway to some Central California spots? maybe to a local sports team game? how about doing
some volunteer work? There are thousands of possibilities and we need your input. Make a suggestion and
we’ll make it happen. Both indoor and outdoor activities are encouraged . Talk to Karen Davis about your
idea and we’ll get it on the calendar. Above and below are just images to spark your imaginations Let’s
hear from you!
Mission San Juan Bautista. Great little town
with terrific restaurants! Spring drive, maybe?
Rosicrucian Egyptian museum in San Jose has fabulous collection
of authentic mummies and tomb recreations. Winter trip?
Nor Cal coast can’t be beat, especially in Spring be-
fore the fog sets in for the summer
How about an A’s
game or maybe the
Sacramento Rivercats?
The Food Bank can always use our help. We
had such a fun and rewarding time last time.

President Message from Harry Davis
This month is the first month in the New Year 2020! The last couple months
have been exciting for DVMA members, The Movie, a really fun Christmas par-
ty, and then the holidays. Now it is time to consider some wonderful destina-
tions for everyone to enjoy in the coming year.
The big event for DVMA will be the annual All-Ford Car Show on June 6!!!
The Show will be in the Red Robin parking area of The Streets of Brentwood.
There are many details to work out and all members are invited to participate.
And, of course, on the day of the Show, there will be lots of opportunities for
each member to do some task that is important to the success of the Show.
Would you like to be a judge for the Mustangs? Would you like to do registra-
tion? Would you like to count the ballots? Would you like to sell raffle tickets?
Set-up and tear-down are very important and lots of hands make those tasks go
quickly.
Our monthly meetings are perfect for checking in, seeing friends, getting info,
and just enjoying the DVMA group. First Saturday breakfasts are great for start-
ing your Saturday!
Harry Davis

National Mustang Day is April 17
National Mustang Day is coming up on April 17, 2020. This is an event that is celebrated by Mustang clubs
all over the world. Thousands of clubs from Africa, Australia, Europe, the Middle East and, of course, the
US all celebrate the iconic Mustang on this one day (can you hear the Beatles song “Come Together” play-
ing softly in the background?). There’s something really cool about all those Mustang lovers out on the
streets and byways on the exact same day! Our club has traditionally gotten together at Spaghetti Factory
for dinner since it often falls on a weeknight. This year it falls on a Friday. We’ll post more info soon about
our club’s own celebration. There’s a website at www.nationalmustangday.com that sells logo tee shirts for
men and women, if you’re interested. There’s plenty of time to order and have it by April 17.
