Maverick Minutes<br />

by Lisa Steele, sitting in for Charlie Davis, Secretary<br />

James called the meeting to order<br />

at 7:10ish PM. Due to some<br />

<br />

were waiting for a few late comers. Just<br />

<br />

Meetings on Wednesdays next month.<br />

<br />

had a very nice time at Diego’s. We had a great attendance<br />

of our Maverick group with a total of about<br />

120 people. FREE drinks…What??? There was “a little<br />

miscommunication” among our President and the Na-<br />

ing<br />

the bill at the end of the night. Well, James brought<br />

the receipt (guess who had to pay the bill?) and Clint<br />

made a motion for the club to cover the bill. There were<br />

no opposes, so now James has money to go buy new<br />

tires. YEA!!! James was full of bills because he also<br />

received the bill for the MAVPCA website of $95.52.<br />

Christy made a motion that this be a paid expense by<br />

the club each year. All agreed. The last item on James’<br />

agenda was to discuss the book he had in his hands -<br />

<strong>2008</strong> RPM – Regions Procedure Manual. This has all<br />

of the appropriate procedures that need to be followed<br />

for each event in the Porsche Club. The Pres would like<br />

for each Chairman in the club to read over their part to<br />

make sure all rules and regulations are being followed.<br />

This manual is on-line on the PCA website. I have already<br />

been reading about how to be the best hospitality<br />

hostess…I certainly don’t want to break any rules.<br />

Clint has two wonderful tech sessions lined up; Park<br />

Place on April 5 th th . Clint<br />

also reported that the Sunday Drives are doing great and<br />

he would like to give “Sunday Drive” shirts to those participants<br />

who have given a lot of time to these drives.<br />

Christy said that she would help get the shirts and the<br />

<br />

Press!!! Clint has announced that he has learned something…Wait!<br />

It’s coming…he learned that he is a Good<br />

Guy. He had some concerns about minors/teens and<br />

signed releases but Clint said that he would contact<br />

Lee Wilkins to clarify these laws. You are a Good Guy,<br />

Clint!<br />

Joel said that he and Andy Mears got together and<br />

discussed membership. Joel will soon be sending out<br />

New Member welcome letters. Joel also reported that<br />

the <strong>March</strong> DE is almost completely full with only four<br />

low<br />

run group. Joel concludes by saying “registration<br />

is going good.”<br />

<br />

reports that Happy Hours are going well. The last HH<br />

at Mac’s was well attended with approximately 35-40<br />

people. The February 21 st HH will be at Cantina Laredo<br />

in Dallas. The <strong>March</strong> HH will be at Go Fish in Addison<br />

and Mike says that the April Happy Hour has not been<br />

<br />

a GROAN by Tracey…not sure if it was because she<br />

thought her peanut butter cookie was a macadamia nut<br />

cookie OR because she did not like the German beer the<br />

<br />

Interruption by Good Guy Clint, he needs to get<br />

some information from Tracey about setting up a wine<br />

tasting.<br />

<br />

<br />

always get good attendance. Needless to say, people in<br />

Plano are HAPPY! The plan for the May HH is to head<br />

back to Ft. Worth somewhere.<br />

Mark says that we have insurance for the Eagles<br />

Canyon DE. He also has all other ads underway.<br />

Christy has goodies! She nods her head and says<br />

“Yes, I have the Goodies.” She plans to do a full page<br />

ad in <strong>Slipstream</strong> for the Goodie Store. We can’t wait to<br />

see those Goodies Christy!!<br />

Lisa (that’s me) has no goodies and has nothing to<br />

say because she has to keep writing.<br />

Tracey reports that the location for the New Member<br />

Party was a great place and had very good accommodations.<br />

There were about ten new people that showed up.<br />

<br />

<br />

you’re back on your toes, Tracey! The wine tasting in<br />

<br />

scheduled for May 17 th . The Father’s Day Picnic is still<br />

<br />

<br />

<br />

issue. He states that we have done very well with overall<br />

total revenue.<br />

<br />

that will be used for some of the Autocrosses this year.<br />

He reports that it is a small lot with some obstacles like<br />

light poles but the surface is good. He thinks it will be<br />

a good location.<br />

Robyn has nothing to discuss but everyone on the<br />

dar<br />

Girl.” Thank You, Robyn!<br />
