May 12-13:                             Gold Rush Car Show – Oroville CA (Gil & Donna Alcaraz) – Not present to report.

 

May 21:                                  Picnic, Angels Camp (Bob & Mary Graham). – 55 people signed up, 22 cars showed.  We had a good breakfast and a nice visit.  It rained all day, but we stayed dry.  We had a hula hoop contest and three winners of $100.00 each and other raffle prizes.  This turned out very well.  A Big Thank you to Bob and Mary!  There was a suggestion to make this an annual club event hosted by the Graham’s and have the club pay for the food.  Motion made, seconded and approved.

 

 

June 3:                                    Prospect Motors Corvette Show, Jackson, CA – No Club host and no attendance.

 

June 3-4:                                 Vette Magic 31- Sacramento, CA (Dana Jones) – 4 or 5 cars were at the car show.  It was a big show.  The judges were very picky about dust and smudges on your car.  Sunday were the drags.  Pam Naylor took 1st place, Jim Davis placed 2nd, Tom Kakker placed 1st.

 

June 10:                                  Family Chevrolet Car Show – Shingle Springs, CA (Stan Anderson) – There were over 45 cars, a very good showing.  There were cars from the Plymouth/Amador Club.  We’ll correspond club to club and may do a rally.  Stan was told by Family Chevrolet that they would present the club with a check tonight; however, Nick is in Panama.

 

June 11:                                  Impromptu run to Elk Grove Brewery, Elk Grove, CA (Rick & Karen Samoian) – 8 cars went along to the Elk Grove Brewery for lunch.  The food was good.  Jim Davis took us to a sausage factory out in Lockford afterward.  Great run!

 

Meeting Relocation:              (Bob Graham) – There was some concern that the decision to move the meeting to Family Chevrolet was made to hastily and members did not get a chance to discuss it.  Bob provided the history of the club – started about 17 years ago with four members meeting at Denny’s.  There were several location changes and Denny’s always worked out well.  General discussion about other options for meeting that would allow dining prior to the meeting.  No good options were suggested.  There were concerns about parking at Family Chevrolet.  General consensus was that Placerville is too far to drive; the members want to keep the club in or near Cameron Park.  A show of hands resulted in only 3 members wanting to return to Denny’s.  A suggestion was made for members to keep their eyes out for other options and bring them up to the club.  We’ll try Family Chevrolet for a few months and see how it goes.  We are really too large for Denny’s.  Members can meet to eat a meal before the meeting at nearby restaurant’s or come early to socialize.  Stan will speak with Family Chevrolet about the parking.  Barbara Collier will look into getting some standing reservations at local restaurants.

 

 

NEW BUSINESS

 

13th Annual Police &

Sherriff Memorial Ride:           (Harland Dains) This is a Harley Ride to benefit the Chaplaincy in the Sacramento Area.  There are 104 volunteer and 7 paid chaplains.  They respond to emergencies and help with counseling.  This fund raiser is their only source of budget money.  Harland will be participating in the ride.  See him if you are interested in contributing.  A motion was made, seconded and approved to have the $130 from tonight’s 50/50 go to this cause.

 

 

Dunce Cap Award:                 (Patty McCoy)  Patty suggested we institute the Brittney Spears Dunce Cap Award.  This would go to the person who does something stupid on a run and gets caught.  The recipient would wear the hat at the meeting and have their picture in the hat posted on the web.  The motion was made, seconded and approved to do this.  There were a few people opposed to this.  The first award will be given at next month’s meeting.
