 Freddie held and E-Board meeting on February 11. The following was

 Judy is handling the June 14 Street Fair at Giovanni’s. Judy said that it
will be called the GDCC Corvette Cruise-In sponsored by Giovanni’s.
-The cruise-in will run from 11:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m.
-She also said that there will be a $5.00 entry fee with proceeds going to
our charities. Also, each vehicle would receive a ticket for a door prize.
-Tony will pay for expenses, i.e. flyers.
-Gary Stiens will play music with his band, Steppin’ Back, from 12:00 –
3:00 p.m.
-Food and drinks will be available.
-As a fundraiser, Terri suggested to Judy that we might consider a
Chinese Auction. We could have a few items where people would buy
chances (i.e. $1.00 or 6 for $5.00) and place in a container of the item
they would like to have a chance to win.
 Bob Haugh will have color pictorials made for new members. He will also
check into having name tags made. Carol will contact members who
recently joined to ensure they receive the pictorial.
 The E-Board decided the annual banquet will be held January 16, 2016 at
the Presidential Banquet Center.
 Freddie is having surgery on March 5. Dave will conduct the meeting in
March. She is unsure how long her recovery will take but hopes it will be
quick.
