Okay we are gonna start off a New Year, but first we need to remember what we did last year. 90 + members, 2 great cars shows, a B-B-Q or two, several trophies!, The Camp Out at the Canyon and then a wonderful Christmas Party Oh Yeah, we had a little FUN too!! Might have to take a break this year and relax for awhile, oops, that is what winter is for. As someone said years ago, On With The Show! Hey Keenan, maybe you should use that as a trivia question at this years B-B-Q!

Wes called the meeting to order as usual, But NO Guests! Just the usual suspects and they were pretty thin too. Not a whole lot of stuff to discuss, but we did have elections and Larry gave his report on upcoming things.

Wes gave a short report about his and Nicki’s trip to Hawaii. The X-Mas party was reported by many to have been great, even Ronnie like it! The upcoming couch racing season is almost on us and DW & Ronnie are in high gear getting ready for the Homer Classic.

December being the annual meeting, elections were held for Officers of The Club. There were no more nominations so the vote was held for the contested positions, that being V.P. and Sgt. Of Arms. Your newly elected officers are:

President Wes Oster             Vice President Chuck DeGuire

Sec-Treas Rand Breitbach     Sgt.of Arms Rod Wymore

P.R. Dude Larry Brown

There was some discussion about why the woman did not get to vote. They had never voted in prior years. Looks like this will be discussed at the January meeting.

Wes handed out his annual "Outstanding Member Award" to Gilbert Arevalo!! Congratulations Jillbeer!!!! We continued the discussion about a Club trailer and Wes appointed Bob Schmidt and Bill Breitbach to head up a committee to look into Club needs, etc. Hopefully a report at the January meeting.

Someone remind someone else that Glen has started setting up the Joseph Run that is coming up June 8-9. He has 25 room reservation in Enterprise under Glen Green or the Flywheels. And as usual, Glen will have his B-B-Q at his place in Alfalfa on Thursday the 8^th.

Wes received the 2007 Run Calendar books and started to hand them out at the December meeting better make sure to make the next meeting if you wish to get one. I think he only ordered 75! Remember we had 90+ members last year!! And last but not least Gilbert also won the 50/50 $71.00!

Wes Here! First off I would like to apologize to the members at the Dec. 21 2006 meeting for having too many beers, before and during the meeting SORRY!! will NOT happen again. Wes.

I hope everyone had a GREAT Christmas and you got ALL gifts you wanted. Now we are looking at a New Year I am not sure where the old one went. I think as you get OLDER the years only last around eight months or less. Well it seen like it anyway. Well it looks like "The Club" will be starting the New Year off with new officers. Well two new ones and three old ones anyway. Looking forward to working with them. Would like to say a BIG "THANK YOU" to Bob Noble and Brian Littlefield for ALL the years they have given "The Club." BUT! knowing them as well as I do they will still be right there with THAT helping hand. Thanks guys again. Wes
