THANKSGIVING<br />

TO EVERYONE!


Hi All,<br />

October has been a busy month for Jan<br />

and I. The first half <strong>of</strong> the month was<br />

taken up with a cruise to the Greek islands<br />

and we just finished the Mystery Run.<br />

We went to Las Vegas for 4 days on the<br />

Mystery Run and it seems like everybody<br />

had a good time. I would like to thank<br />

Dale and Sue Comer for all their help in<br />

putting the run together and helping to<br />

keep it running smoothly. They went to<br />

Vegas with us on a pre-run and really<br />

helped me in the whole process <strong>of</strong><br />

planning it. For those who weren’t on the<br />

run, here are the highlights. We toured<br />

the Las Vegas Speedway, drove through<br />

<strong>Valley</strong> <strong>of</strong> Fire State Park, toured the Shelby<br />

Museum and production area, went to the<br />

Mob Museum, drove through Red Rock<br />

Canyon and saw a magic show, “Illusions”,<br />

at the Tropicana. Thanks to all the<br />

members who went for their cooperation<br />

and patience. It was my first big run and I<br />

was learning as we went along.<br />

Everything seems to be going great<br />

with the club. Thanks to those who<br />

have renewed their memberships and<br />

for those who haven’t you have until<br />

the <strong>November</strong> meeting to do so. Also<br />

at the <strong>November</strong> meeting we will have<br />

our annual vote for Board Members.<br />

We have a lot <strong>of</strong> runs coming up so<br />

sign up and enjoy the company <strong>of</strong> your<br />

fellow members.<br />

Charlie Fosnaugh and Tom Jarvis have<br />

come up with a great jacket for<br />

members to buy and at a great price.<br />

Charlie sent an email out about it and<br />

you should have your order in by now.<br />

Thanks to them for putting out the<br />

effort to do this.<br />

Ed Dena has agreed to sponsor the<br />

club again next year with a $1200<br />

donation. Remember that when<br />

you’re getting that new C7.<br />

See you all at the next meeting.


Jan Pflepsen gave her Sunshine and Clouds<br />

report. Skip thanked her for doing such a<br />

great job keeping us informed on what’s<br />

going on with everyone.<br />

Club shirts have all been distributed. Jackets<br />

will be available to order this month. Tom<br />

Jarvis modeled the black and red jacket that<br />

we can order. With the embroidery it<br />

should cost us around $60 each.<br />

Skip read a Thank You note from the<br />

Marjorie Mason Center thanking us for our<br />

donation. They also sent some SHARES cards<br />

to use that makes a donation every time you<br />

scan your card while shopping at Save Mart<br />

and several other stores.<br />

The General Meeting was called to order at<br />

6:30 by President, Gary Pflepsen.<br />

The minutes from the September general<br />

meeting were read by Debby Anderson,<br />

Secretary. Joyce Kroeker made a motion to<br />

accept the minutes as read and it was<br />

seconded by Freida Null. Motion carried.<br />

Craig Hansen, Parliamentarian said the<br />

ballots are ready to go for next month’s vote.<br />

Treasurer’s report was given by Mike Lebda.<br />

Skip Severance, VP <strong>of</strong> Activities had the run<br />

leaders report on the previous runs. Future<br />

runs will be movies, dominoes and the<br />

Presidents Mystery run that kicks <strong>of</strong>f this<br />

Sunday. Also there will be a Halloween party<br />

and we talked about the Christmas party as<br />

well.<br />

Dick Danielsen, VP <strong>of</strong> PR/Membership gave<br />

the Birthday and Anniversary report. He<br />

introduced Craig & Darlene Derringer who<br />

are guests <strong>of</strong> Andy & Connie Anderson and<br />

possible future members. Dick also stated<br />

that renewals were coming in steadily and to<br />

remember they are due by December 15,<br />

2015.<br />

Sg. At Arms, Chuck Laningham collected<br />

$2.50 in badge fines.<br />

We voted on the Club donating $2,500<br />

towards our Christmas Party. Fred Parks<br />

made a motion to pay the $2,500 and Scott<br />

Parkin seconded it. Motion Carried.<br />

Members will pay $12.00 each to attend the<br />

Club Christmas party and any nonmember,<br />

guest will be charged $37.00.<br />

We are checking to see if Ed Dena is still<br />

interested in sponsoring us and we will<br />

invite him to the Christmas party again this<br />

year. The next General Meeting will be<br />

<strong>November</strong> 17, 2015. The next Board<br />

Meeting will be Thursday, October 22, 2015.<br />

7:00 pm at Gary’s.<br />

Motion to adjourn the meeting was made by<br />

Chuck Laningham & seconded by Julie Sons.<br />

Meeting adjourned at 7:25 pm<br />

Respectfully submitted by,<br />

SUNSHINE & CLOUDS<br />

Jan De Mello-Pflepsen<br />

THANKS SO MUCH TO ALL WHO CONTRIBUTED TO SUNSHINE AND CLOUDS! IT IS SO<br />

GREAT TO SEE EVERYONE ENJOYING ALL THE NEWS………<br />

1. I ACTUALLY RECIEVED TWO MESSAGES FROM THE PIERCY’S. VERY INTERESTING. THE<br />

MESSAGE SIMPLY SAYS “ IN CANCUN CONSUMING EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS ……… THEN THE<br />

SECOND MESSAGE SAYS: “I WILL ADD A LITTLE MORE TO OUR TRIP TO CANCUN – THE<br />

FIRST NIGHT AT THE RESORT TOM TRIPPED FELL LANDED ON THE CONCRETE HITTING HIS<br />

HEAD AND SCRAPING HIS LEG AND ANKLE. WE CALLED A DOCTOR AND IT WAS THE BEST<br />

HUNDRED I’VE EVER PAID.TOM CHECKED OUT PERFECT EXCEPT FOR A WHOPPING<br />

HEADACHE. THEY HAD TO MOVE TO ANOTHER RESORT SINCE RESORT WAS NOT ABLE TO<br />

ACCOMMODATE EMILY AND TOM WITH A ROOM WITHOUT THE STEPS WHICH CAUSED<br />

TO TRIPP. THEY HAD FIVE GOOD DAYS AND TWO WITH POURING RAIN. THEY ARE NOW<br />

HOME AND GETTING READY TO GO ON THE MYSTERY RUN IN ANOTHER WEEK.<br />

2. SOUNDS LIKE CHARLOTTE RENNA HAS BEEN BUSY IN THE KITCHEN. SHE HAD TWO<br />

ENTRIES IN THE FRESNO FAIR THIS YEAR. HER BISCOTTI WON A FIRST PLACE AND BEST<br />

OF SHOW. HER TADILLI WON THIRD PLACE. THESE WERE 2 OF JOE’S FAVORITE OF ALL<br />

TIME ITALIAN COOKIES, SO CHARLOTTE FELT PRETTY PROUD TO HONOR HIM WITH THESE<br />

ENTRIES. EVERY TIME SHE WOULD MAKE THEM, JOE WOULD SAY”THOSE ARE THE BEST<br />

YOU HAVE EVER MADE!<br />

3. FROM THE HANSEN’S: THEIR GRANDSON ATTICUS WAS OUT OF SCHOOL THIS WEEK SO<br />

HE STAYED WITH PAM AND CRAIG FOR SEVERAL DAYS. THEY WENT TO THE FRESNO FAIR<br />

AND SAW ICKEY WOODS (AS IN ICKEY SHUFFLE GETTING THE COLDCUTS.) CRAIG AND<br />

ATTICUS GOT A PICTURE AND AUTOGRAPH. I DON’T KNOW WHO WAS MORE EXCITED –<br />

CRAIG OR ATTICUS.<br />

4. AND NOW FOR JULIE SONS: SHE AND DAVID JUST COME HOME FROM HAWAII. THEY<br />

WENT TO SEE THEIR OLDEST DAUGHTER GET MARRIED. IT WAS A BEAUTIFUL VACATION<br />

AND DID NOT WANT TO COME HOME. WHEN THEY PRE-CHECKEDIN FROM HONOLULU<br />

TO LA THE NIGHT BEFORE THEIR FLIGHT LEFT, THEY LEARNED THEY HAD TO BE AT THE<br />

AIRPORT 4 HOURS EARLIER THAN THEY PLANNED. THEIR FLIGHT WAS CANCELLED AND<br />

THEY WERE MOVED TO AN EARLIER FLIGHT. NO ROOM ON THE EARLY FLIGHT TO


FRESNO AND THEIR ORIGINAL FLIGHT WAS DELAYED 3 HOURS. THE PLANE ARRIVED AT<br />

11PM BUT ONCE THEY ALL GOT SITUATED IN THEIR SEATS THEY TOOK JULIE AND DAVID<br />

OFF THE PLANE BECAUSE ONE OF THE LUGGAGE CARTS HIT THE WING AND DAMAGED IT.<br />

SO, THE WING WAS REPAIRED AND AFTER ANOTHER FEW HOURS LATER THEY WERE ON<br />

THEIR WAY HOME. THEY DID NOT RETURN TO FRESNO UNTIL 3 AM.<br />

5. JOYCE KROEKER HAS SHARED SOME INTERESTING FACTS. ON OCTOBER 25, 2008 ED<br />

KROEKER HAD A HEART ATTACK. HE HAS DEFIED THE ODDS AND IS STILL AROUND AND<br />

KICKING, ALGHOUGH NOT QUITE SO HIGH. FOR A MAN THE HOSPITAL STAFF SAID WAS<br />

DYING AND FUNERAL ARRANGEMENTS WERE MADE HE IS DOING DARN GOOD. SO<br />

MANY CVC MEMBERS THERE TO SUPPORT US THEN AND CONTINUE TO DO SO. ON THE<br />

ANNIVERSARY OF THAT SCARY TIME, THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTINUED CARING.<br />

MEMBERS OF CVC ARE THE BEST.<br />

6. CHARLIE AND KIM HAVE BEEN BUSY TRAVELING THE EAST COAST, STARTING IN NEW<br />

YORK THEN CRUISING UP THE COAST FROM BOSTON TO QUEBEC, NOVA SCOTIAAND<br />

PRINCE EDWARDS ISLAND. AFTER THE CRUISETHEY FLEW TO NIAGARA FALLS AND<br />

FINISHED THEIR TRIP IN TORONTO. THIS PAST WEEKEND KIM AND CHARLIE CELEBRATED<br />

HER BIRTHDAY IN SHELL BEACH WITH CHARLIE’S SISTER DEBBIE WHO HAPPENS TO SHARE<br />

KIM’S BIRTHDAY. IN FACT,THEY WERE ACTUALLY BORN ON THE SAME DAY IN FRESNO<br />

COMMUNITY HOSPITAL. IT HAS BEEN A VERY BUSY TIME, BUT A LOT OF FUN.<br />

7. CONGRATLATIONS ARE IN ORDER! SCOTT PARKIN AND AIMEE ARE GETTING MARRIED<br />

ON NOVEMBER 14 AND GUESS WHAT? WE ARE ALL INVITED TO THE RECEPTION. A<br />

FLYER HAS BEEN SENT TO MEMBERS, PLEASE CHECK FOR DETAILS.<br />

8. AND LASTLY, GARY AND I HAVE SOME NEWS TO SHARE. ON SEPTEMBER 27 THROUGH<br />

OCTOBER 5, WE VACATIONED IN ISTANBUL AND GREECE AND THE GRECIAN ISLANDS. IT<br />

WAS VERY INTERESTING TO VISIT THE RUINS OF GREECE AND LEARN HOW THE<br />

GOVERNMENT IS TRYING TO RESTORE THE RUINS. WE LEARNED THE COUNTRY OF<br />

GREECE IS STEEPED IN THEIR RELIGIONS. WE RENTED AN ATV AND DROVE AROUND THE<br />

ISLAND SOAKING UP CULTURE AND TRADITIONS. WE LEARNED THAT GRAPES ARE<br />

GROWN ON THE GROUND (NOT STAKED) AND NEVER WATERED. THEIR MAIN PRODUCTS<br />

PRODUCED IS OLIVE OIL. GREECE IS TOTALLY DEPENDENT ON TOURISTS FOR THEIR<br />

INCOME. ……UPON RETURNING HOME, WE RECEIVED A NOTICE THAT MY<br />
