Minutes
Tonight's meeting was opened
by Vice President, Dean Stokes. President Marlene Coder was absent.
The Pledge of Allegiance was dismissed as we did not have a flag
present.
Dean asked for the minutes to
be read. Secretary, Wanda Stokes read the minutes with no additions or
corrections. Minutes approved.
Treasurer, Mike Porter gave
his report. We have money in the bank. Mike noted the latest
information from other Model T Clubs. He received a postcard from Grand
Junction Car Show in Colorado scheduled for Sept. 2011, a letter from Hal
Schedler who is running for a board position with the MTFCA asking for
votes. Mike also received a letter from the LeMay Car Museum asking for
donations.
Old
Business
There was much discussion as
to where to have our annual Christmas party. Dan Danko gave his report of
holding the party at Cousin's Restaurant. They would love to have a Model
T for display and have a large meeting room for our party. Everyone would
just order off the menu as they wish. Marlene Coder telephoned her report
to Dean Stokes. Marlene checked out Old Country Buffet. The room for
the party is rather small and there was some discussion if it would hold
everyone. Linda Porter checked out the Kennewick Library which is large
enough for the party. It includes tables and chairs but we have to bring
in our own food. Dean asked for a vote. The final vote was for
Cousin's Restaurant in Pasco.
The Christmas Party will
be December 12, 2010 at 1:00 p.m. until 5:00
p.m.

Next Year's National Model T
tour will be to Alberta, Canada. The theme is Cowboy's and Coal
Mines. Dean talked to a fellow in Alberta who encouraged everyone to
attend as there will be lots of open prairies and wonderful things to see and
do. The tour will be limited to 80 cars. The dates for the National
tour is June 26th through July 1st.
Dean asked for a Garage
report - Dale Peterson reported that he is getting his speedster's body
on. Mike Porter and Dean Stokes have a 26 Roadster for sale.
Dale Peterson and several
other members who went on the "Seat of Your Pants" tour
to the San Juan Islands gave their report on this beautiful and memorable
trip.
Bill Sheller is rumored to
have a tour mulling around for next year to Lyle, Washington. Bill's tour are
always outstanding. There was also a report on the Spokane, Lewiston and
Walla Walla tour that rotates every year between the three clubs which is always
a lot of fun.
Sharon Peterson came up with
a wonderful slogan for 2011 - "We will stay with
you." This sounded like a great idea to everyone
present.
With nothing more to come
before the members, the meeting was adjourned.
Respectively Submitted,
Wanda Stokes, Secretary
