President’s Message<br />

Story by Gordon Williams<br />

Happy New Year to all,<br />

What a great year 2012 was! We had<br />

many new activities and record setting<br />

turn out for many of our events, which<br />

will make 2012 the year to try to match.<br />

First of all, congratulations to<br />

Monica Asbury, Gary Labb and Ken<br />

Fredrickson who were all elected to your<br />

board of directors for a two year term.<br />

We could not do it without them.<br />

Second, thanks to Maryann, Peggy<br />

and Toni for a great Christmas Harbor<br />

Cruise! I enjoyed it<br />

as much, if not more,<br />

than any event I have<br />

attended to date. I<br />

hope we can repeat it<br />

next year. Also, our<br />

<strong>Toys</strong> for <strong>Tots</strong> with the<br />

Marines of 514 was<br />

a big success and we<br />

are already planning<br />

on repeating and<br />

expanding that activity<br />

next year. OORAH!<br />

<strong>This</strong> New Year’s<br />

success will depend on how many of you<br />

will volunteer for an event or activity.<br />

We are in desperate need of a Concours<br />

chair for <strong>2013</strong>, so please let us know if<br />

you can chair that committee. It would<br />

be great to have an AutoX person step<br />

up for the event so that we might more<br />

effectively reach out to that group for<br />

Concours participation. Beyond that, we<br />

need folks to lead a tour to a destination<br />

of their choice to help increase our tour<br />

activities for <strong>2013</strong>. To all of you who<br />

enjoy our activities, remember they can’t<br />

continue without your leadership. Lead<br />

one activity and help your club continue<br />

the success that you yourself have<br />

enjoyed.<br />

A personal thanks to all of our<br />

volunteers that participated in our 2012<br />

activities. You are what makes this club<br />

so enjoyable.<br />

I will be in Kenya for the last two<br />

weeks of January volunteering with a<br />

mobile medical clinic that works in the<br />

villages that don’t have access to proper<br />

medical care. I’m sure that I will have<br />

some interesting experiences to share<br />

upon my return. <strong>In</strong> closing, I’ve enjoyed<br />

all of our members and associates this<br />

year and I look forward to an even better<br />

<strong>2013</strong>. Remember to say thank you to one<br />

of our volunteers this month and I’ll see<br />

you in February!<br />

See you on the road!<br />
