April 2021

April 18, 2021

Spring has arrived! And much like nature, the club is starting to awaken. I want to thank everyone who joined in our “flash” tour earlier this month. The weather was perfect, and the cars looked great going down the road! The ice cream at Van Dee’s was especially satisfying. Check out the pictures.

The Board and I are continuing to monitor the COVID situation and are planning club activities based the latest information. The events calendar reflects near-term decisions, although ideas for future events are actively being developed. The May event will be a tour to Pella to look at the tulips. We’ll be in our cars, outside for the tulips, and in Pella before the Tulip Time crowd.

The hope is that by July the comments made by our politicians come true and the club can have events similar to what we’ve had pre-COVID. So hang in there, keeping working on those cars, and look forward to fun times with the club!

February 2021

April 18, 2021

Believe it or not Spring is around the corner. The crocuses and daffodils are beginning to stir despite being well out of site. And like these flowers, many of us are beginning to think about our cars despite being huddled in front of the fireplace. Our “pride and joy” is waiting for us to cherish and enjoy it on the warm days ahead.

Yep, it’s about that time…to start getting excited about the year ahead! The Board met at the beginning of February and began the process of mapping out the year. Needless to say, it will be touch and go as we wait to see what outcomes result from the vaccination process and the recent governor’s proclamation. That said, we do want to do what we can to reconnect.

We’ll begin with the Battery Post and invite members to share stories. It can be about your car or any topic you care to share. In addition, we’ll have some interactive activities and games. Be sure to check out the article by Wade Krieg in 2021 January/February issue! You can download on the About Us page.

In March, we’ll monitor the weather and hope for an opportunity to have a picnic or meet at an outdoor restaurant. Notice will be short on this as the weather forecasting window is only seven days, but let’s see what happens.
I’m excited to see all of you, to hear how your winter went and to enjoy good times with each of you again.

Take care and all the best,
Scott
