Meeting Highlights
Car Show Committee: Next committee meeting is scheduled for next Saturday, April 9th.
We viewed the design we plan to use for the Top 25 awards that was created by Alan.
Annual Automotive Award: Sears has agreed to match our $400 tool purchase for this
year’s award. Motion was made by Shirley, seconded by Julie, that the Club spend approximately $400 on tools and a bag for this award. All members present voted in favor of the
motion. Dick reported that he has been in contact with Randy Poissant, teacher at the
Malone school. He thinks the award presentation could be done on Friday, June 10th picnic.
Miles has spoken with Steve Barrett at the Plattsburgh school.
Clinton County Nursing Home Ice Cream Social: We have set the date for this event
on Wednesday, June 15th at 6:15. We will plan to meet at the Skyway Plaza by 6 pm.
The Alice Center in Malone: Dick has spoken with Terry Dufour, the activities director
there about a potential visit. Dick invited her to come meet some of us when we are at Bokies. He will suggest June 22nd, rain date June 29th, for our visit.
NACS Prom Cruise: Star & Roland’s granddaughter has about 9 couples that would like us
to drive them to their prom. We would need 9 cars for the cruise. The date is Friday, May
13th. We do not have a time yet. The prom will be held at the West Side Ballroom on the old
Plattsburgh Air Base. We could gather at the Altona Fire Department parking lot. We will
have times and pick up locations ready for the May meeting. (**Secretary’s Note: We have
since been told that the Prom starts at 7 pm. Hopefully that means our start time will be late
enough for many of our people that have to work that day will still be able to join us!)
Honor Flight Parades: Pauline has asked if we could help them out at the Cadyville parade
on June 12th and the Plattsburgh 4th of July parade. We have told her that we will not have
drivers available for the Memorial Day weekend. Pauline has given us permission to have car
magnets made as escort vehicles if we wish to do so. She sent a sample patch that the motorcycle riders wear.
