The Prez Says . . .
Dear Members,
I hope everyone’s Thanksgiving was spent with friends and family and you
ate in moderation so you can still fit behind the steering wheel of your
Chevelle or El Camino!
Speaking of Thanksgiving, I want to send a shout out and thanks to all our
Club members who have been helping me with my first year as Club
President. I really want to thank our Executive team – Dave and Katie
Schurtz, Joanie Serafino, Mike & Cindy Crusco and Steve Fox. Without their
guidance and support, this job would be much harder. Dave and Katie have
been a crucial part of my presidency and I am forever thankful to have Dave
as my VP and Katie making us all look good with Merchandising and her
support. I’d be remiss (and forever sore) if I didn’t also thank Angela (my
wife) for her great efforts to create and send out the monthly Club Newsletter.
It’s not an easy job to fill and everyone can be a critic.
As all of you now know, I was elected to and accepted a 2nd year as Club
President for 2018. That basically means nobody else ran for President…. I
feel I have a better understanding and a ton of “lessons learned” behind me
now, so 2018 should be even a better year for our Club.
I’m very excited about the upcoming Club Christmas Party and potluck
luncheon we have planned for Sat, Dec 9th at My Hot Cars located at 12875
Alcosta Blvd. in San Ramon. Party starts at 11AM, so come out, bring a main
dish and a wrapped present for our annual gift exchange. Hope to see all of
you there. This will be our last Club event for 2017. I hope you enjoy some of
the pictures in this newsletter from recent Club events to remind you all of the
fun times we’ve had with our fellow Club members.
