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 />

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 />
GRANDAUGHER, MEGAN WHO IS A STUDENT AT UC DAVIS,HAS RECEIVED ALL-AMERICAN<br />
HONORS FOR STUDENT-ATHLETE FOR THE ACADEMIC YEAR 2014-15. ALL AMERICANS<br />
