CLUB B-B-Q , JULY 19TH !!!!
Stuff
Well, I hope some of you have been making some runs, cruise ins, drags or anything fun for that matter. I know I have made a couple so far. Made it half way to Joseph, but that's in the pages to follow for you members that get your newsletter in the mail. The rest of you got the Alfalfa Story earlier on e-mail.
A group of us went to Willimina on the 4th to their car show. We took home the Club Participation Award!! Pretty cool, aye! The Club also took home the Club Participation at the Joseph Run. Maybe Larry is writing about that. Oh well, on to other stuff.
Meeting notes
Had 27 members at the June meeting!! Wes did all his normal stuff. And Jeff was there to assist with the rowdys. Talked about the Homer Show and that one is right around the corner!!!
You won't get this until after the clean up at Bob's for the B-B-Q , Club to supply refreshments for the workers, sorry. Talked some about the camp out at MaCleay in September.
The winner of the Jon Dunn Scholarship money for 2003 was Jeff Gerhards. And the winners keep a coming. Pretty cool to give away money!!
Well not much else to report on, it was a short meeting. I think Jeff shaped the club up pretty good while Wes was gone.
B-B-Q Stuff
Okay, now everyone pay attention!!! I plan on only reminding you once or twice over the next week or so.
CLUB B-B-Q at BOB NOBLES
THIS SATURDAY, JULY 19TH !!
There is going to be lots of Food, Bench Racing, Refreshments and Oh Yeah, FUN!!! Like previous years, the club will provide Chicken & refreshments ( beer, pop, water, etc.) And you the eaters/members, please bring some sort of side dish. Potato salad, chips, watermelon, beans, etc, you know the drill. BE THERE !!!!!
Going's on
The other day I heard that fellow member Bob Schmidt picked up a ex-pro stock car to play with later this year. Hear it's pretty nice. Maybe we can get an official update , pictures, etc. at the B-B-Q this coming Saturday.
Speaking of the B-B-Q (again) A bunch of us showed up at the work party at Bob's place this past Saturday to assist with getting things ready for the B-B-Q. Wes, Carl, Jeff, John, Bob, Leroy & myself mowed some grass, cut some brush and mainly had a good time, oh yeah, we did have a beer or two.
Wes's Corner
Tried to get something from Wes for the newsletter, but alas, he is so busy being retired I can't track him down. He's either under a house, over here, over there, you know the story.

Oh the meeting? Yeah that's this week on Thursday. Make sure to make it!! This is the last meeting before the B-B-Q and the Homer Show!! We do need people to show up and compare notes about what's going on for the show!!
Homer Show Info
Oh, The Homer Show. Wes has been able to add a couple of more trophy's, so we are up to 25 to give away. Boy, Scott Keenan and the others will be busy!! Wes has been getting a lot of calls about the show from people that have never been there. Much more news at the meeting!!!!! Pretty cool news. RAND
